1
00:00:10.000 --> 00:00:14.920
Chicago is as unique politically as it is architecturally.

2
00:00:15.540 --> 00:00:20.020
We know it's the architectural Athens of the country, of the world perhaps.

3
00:00:20.660 --> 00:00:25.960
And so its politics is unique in that it's the last big machine place.

4
00:00:25.960 --> 00:00:31.740
And the machine at this moment is in a shambles, is pretty well demolished.

5
00:00:31.780 --> 00:00:36.840
The machine as we've known it from the days of Richard J. Daly before that, Ed Kelly,

6
00:00:37.020 --> 00:00:42.360
before that when it first came into being with Anton Cermak, who you recall was shot

7
00:00:42.360 --> 00:00:46.600
when he was with Franklin D. Roosevelt and whose last immortal words were,

8
00:00:46.800 --> 00:00:51.600
I'm glad it was me instead of you. And though his grammar may have left something to be desired,

9
00:00:51.600 --> 00:00:59.260
nonetheless he is immortal. But the machine was a combination of Irish primarily, always the Irish.

10
00:00:59.640 --> 00:01:08.780
And Gus Savage and a number of other people and I worked on Harold Washington, persuaded him in 1977

11
00:01:08.780 --> 00:01:18.100
that he should be the challenger for mayor against Michael Blandick. And we were successful in

12
00:01:18.100 --> 00:01:24.960
persuading him and the campaign was put together that was you know, rag tag in a lot of ways,

13
00:01:24.960 --> 00:01:31.380
but it was a stage setter for what was yet to come. You know we carried five or six wards, got

14
00:01:31.380 --> 00:01:37.780
you know 10 to 15 percent of the black community. But the most important thing about that campaign

15
00:01:37.780 --> 00:01:46.780
was that it laid a foundation for independent politics for what was to come. In 79 we went for

16
00:01:46.780 --> 00:01:52.780
Jane Byrne in a very, very big way, but I think we recognized that this was not

17
00:01:53.380 --> 00:02:00.560
quite the same dimension. Jane was a vehicle, at best someone who could be a transition figure

18
00:02:00.560 --> 00:02:06.880
in the breakdown of the machine, but it was just a fantastic victory when it finally occurred.

19
00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:12.180
I think it surprised most of us who perpetrated it.

20
00:02:15.140 --> 00:02:24.720
And well here we are. Harold Washington is about to be re-elected. We had this amazing victory in

21
00:02:24.720 --> 00:02:42.160
1983, one that turned out to be in its own way as big a surprise, but an even greater event than the

22
00:02:42.720 --> 00:02:49.000
remarkable thing for myself as well as a lot of the old soldiers is that we are sort of here

23
00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:59.040
running what I guess one has to call an insurgent incumbent campaign. There is much of the style and

24
00:03:00.220 --> 00:03:09.600
approach of the insurgent here, the independent, running with a man who is about to become,

25
00:03:09.600 --> 00:03:18.480
if he is not yet, an institution. And I think that's kind of unique sense for those of us who

26
00:03:20.440 --> 00:03:26.960
still like to use the word independent, which is a term that has

27
00:03:27.880 --> 00:03:32.400
turned over a lot in Chicago politics, but I guess we like it.

28
00:03:34.680 --> 00:03:40.760
The machine in Chicago these days is really more of a mindset than the kind of organization that

29
00:03:40.760 --> 00:03:49.680
we came to know and love or despise back in the days of Ed Kelly and later Richard Daley.

30
00:03:50.660 --> 00:03:57.660
The machine mentality exists in all of its perpetrators today, the Rodoliax,

31
00:03:57.660 --> 00:04:00.540
the Burks, the Hardigans, all of those guys.

32
00:04:08.020 --> 00:04:13.420
When I began there was a machine, but it wasn't the Daley machine at that time, it was called the

33
00:04:14.240 --> 00:04:19.740
Kelly-Nash machine, or as those of us who opposed it back in the 40s referred to it, the Nellie

34
00:04:19.740 --> 00:04:30.440
Cash machine. That was boss Pat Nash of the party and Mayor Ed Kelly the mayor. In 1955 it became

35
00:04:30.440 --> 00:04:39.520
the Daley machine, perfected. Mayor Daley was often called the last of the old-time bosses of

36
00:04:39.520 --> 00:04:45.580
a city, but in fact, as Sidney Lenz pointed out, he was really the first of the new-time bosses.

37
00:04:45.580 --> 00:04:53.680
Mayor Daley was the guy who was able to take the classic, the traditional depression-style

38
00:04:53.680 --> 00:05:01.960
political machine of the New Deal, the welfare machine, and turn it into something very special

39
00:05:01.960 --> 00:05:09.040
by bringing in the traditional opposition of the business and financial community,

40
00:05:09.600 --> 00:05:18.080
State Street and LaSalle Street as we call it here in Chicago. He forged a unique alliance of

41
00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:28.060
business, financial community, the political machine that was non-ideological,

42
00:05:29.260 --> 00:05:36.280
the small portion of the political party that was ideological, i.e. democratic,

43
00:05:37.080 --> 00:05:47.540
to some extent even liberal-democratic, along with labor and finance and business. He had a coalition

44
00:05:50.840 --> 00:06:00.280
in Germany in the 30s without any pejorative, was the same grouping that Hitler was able to put

45
00:06:00.280 --> 00:06:08.640
together for his new Germany, a remarkable alliance. This is what gave him virtually

46
00:06:08.640 --> 00:06:17.040
absolute power for so long, and that was the machine against which many, many people

47
00:06:17.640 --> 00:06:24.940
other than perennials like myself began to rebel against in the 60s. In the 60s,

48
00:06:24.940 --> 00:06:30.080
the issue was civil rights when the black community began to break away from the Daley

49
00:06:30.080 --> 00:06:40.060
machine and certainly the anti-war movement in the later 60s. I think the behavior of Daley's

50
00:06:40.060 --> 00:06:48.960
police at the 68 convention was what was responsible for breaking away a lot of then liberal Democrats

51
00:06:48.960 --> 00:06:56.860
who sort of didn't like the way Daley behaved, but after all he could steal enough votes to

52
00:06:56.860 --> 00:07:03.460
elect John Kennedy, and so they stayed with him. What political scene here does this show?

53
00:07:03.800 --> 00:07:09.520
Chicago from other cities. I think the last of the big cities were the last of the big machines,

54
00:07:10.140 --> 00:07:16.840
and now the machine is demolished because of the changing demography of the city, because of the

55
00:07:16.840 --> 00:07:23.520
influx starting with World War, end of World War I, a bigger one after World War II, and finally

56
00:07:23.520 --> 00:07:31.560
people coming in, and being aware of power for the first time. Chicago was known for its plantation

57
00:07:31.560 --> 00:07:38.960
politics when Mayor Daley was there and before him Ed Kelly, because they had their plantation boss,

58
00:07:39.000 --> 00:07:45.420
a black man named Bill Dawson. He swung all the votes for the machine and the blacks had no say

59
00:07:45.420 --> 00:07:51.340
they had no feeling of self-esteem or of power. Along comes not Washington, Harold Washington,

60
00:07:51.340 --> 00:07:56.880
he was just there, but they were ready. The Civil Rights Movement of course had a lot to do with it.

61
00:07:57.320 --> 00:08:03.300
We can't overestimate the effect of the Civil Rights Movement on the awareness of black people.

62
00:08:03.460 --> 00:08:09.480
That awareness going to the polls with Washington, Harold Washington, the chemistry was just right.

63
00:08:10.040 --> 00:08:16.320
Not only was he a congressman, but he was aware of issues, key issues of the world as well as the

64
00:08:16.320 --> 00:08:23.440
city, and somehow it worked just right. The machine as we've known it, the ethnic groups as part of it,

65
00:08:23.480 --> 00:08:29.060
formed by the way by a bohemian and not an Irishman, Anton Cermak got the machine together,

66
00:08:29.400 --> 00:08:35.900
the ethnic groups with a plantation boss. And then came Ed Kelly during World War II and Roosevelt

67
00:08:36.540 --> 00:08:41.220
and finally the man who sat it out as Mike Royko points out in that remarkable boss,

68
00:08:41.220 --> 00:08:48.620
sat out all the others and became the mayor himself, Mayor Daley. You know as Mike points out,

69
00:08:48.740 --> 00:08:54.460
the name Mayor Daley is one word, it's an eponym, but you'd say Mayor Daley Blanda, kids would say,

70
00:08:54.620 --> 00:09:01.440
Mayor Daley Kelly, Mayor Daley Byrne, but they can't say Mayor Daley Washington. So in any event,

71
00:09:01.440 --> 00:09:07.480
it's a very exciting moment I think, and I find rather exhilarating moment for the city,

72
00:09:07.820 --> 00:09:13.160
the end of what was accepted as a way of life. Who would have dreamed 10 years ago,

73
00:09:13.580 --> 00:09:19.400
as it was 10 years, Chicago would have a black mayor. You think of Chicago as geographically

74
00:09:19.400 --> 00:09:25.640
a demographic, the most segregated big city in the country. You could ride down South State

75
00:09:25.640 --> 00:09:30.900
Street beginning with the biggest housing project in the world. I think it'll be an easier term and

76
00:09:30.900 --> 00:09:37.840
more and more whites will find the city will not explode, city will get along. Garbage picked up

77
00:09:37.840 --> 00:09:44.000
on time. He's not King Canute, but he did stop the waves for a moment, you know, and in any event,

78
00:09:44.020 --> 00:09:52.920
I think there'll be more of a modus for them. You also, has put it, the most open administration

79
00:09:52.920 --> 00:09:59.200
within memory. In that sense, it's more important than reform as we use that word, is that voices

80
00:09:59.200 --> 00:10:03.840
will be heard that hitherto voice less. How about the criticism that...

81
00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:13.060
Of course, we hear this all the time. Of course, he'll bring people who are more amenable to him

82
00:10:13.060 --> 00:10:19.820
than old hacks. Will he have some hacks of his own? Undoubtedly, but over, far overriding that,

83
00:10:20.100 --> 00:10:25.500
they're wrong because the machine, as we know in the past, I would choose, of course, you see,

84
00:10:25.500 --> 00:10:31.220
my two favorites, of course, would be Mike Royko and Nelson Algren. Way back years ago, of course,

85
00:10:31.480 --> 00:10:35.280
Finley Peter Dunn, when the Irish immigrants first came to Chicago,

86
00:10:35.600 --> 00:10:40.360
Finley Peter Dunn created the Mr. Dooley, the bartender with a guy named Hennessy,

87
00:10:40.560 --> 00:10:46.440
and in Irish dialect, he would talk about the city and power. He would coin the phrase,

88
00:10:46.620 --> 00:10:51.520
the Supreme Court follows the elections, you know, but that was... But today, Royko, of course,

89
00:10:51.520 --> 00:10:58.080
boss has created the best book, I think, on city power written. Algren is the bard. He would

90
00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:04.580
lyricize, in his lyric fashion, he would make us aware of the city behind the billboards.

91
00:11:05.260 --> 00:11:10.260
And when Nelson said, to use his phrase, perhaps, you know, you, there may be about Chicago,

92
00:11:10.620 --> 00:11:16.060
there may be a lovely, a lovelies, but never a lovely so real. It's like being in love with

93
00:11:16.060 --> 00:11:21.300
a woman with a broken nose, that's it. In love with a woman with a broken nose, there may be

94
00:11:21.300 --> 00:11:27.240
lovelier lovely, but never lovelies so real. And that's Chicago.

95
00:11:28.560 --> 00:11:29.320
Okay.

96
00:11:33.040 --> 00:11:38.680
So Washington says there has to be a transitional figure between the old daily matriarchy and the

97
00:11:38.680 --> 00:11:45.360
new politics of people, sisterhood, brotherhood, and you can go...

98
00:11:45.360 --> 00:11:53.300
Okay. So it turns out that Washington is a transitional figure. His politics is daily-esque

99
00:11:53.300 --> 00:11:58.920
and his movement progressive. You can go to his campaign headquarters even now, and there's the

100
00:11:58.920 --> 00:12:03.520
third floor where people dress like people in ordinary street clothes, and you go to the fourth

101
00:12:03.520 --> 00:12:09.060
floor and they're all in the political uniform with suits and ties, and his administration is

102
00:12:09.060 --> 00:12:14.160
divided between his third and fourth floor. But I think he's brought new people. People from the

103
00:12:14.160 --> 00:12:22.020
streets have come into city hall politics, and the future will be determined on if he is able to

104
00:12:22.020 --> 00:12:28.400
control his own people. I think the fight in the next administration for him will be not from his

105
00:12:28.400 --> 00:12:33.280
enemies, but his friends. His enemies were predictable and he held them in control. He won't

106
00:12:33.280 --> 00:12:38.880
be able to hold his friends in control, the new people that he's brought into politics, and this

107
00:12:38.880 --> 00:12:44.020
is going to be ready for more people government, and that could be his problem.

108
00:12:47.620 --> 00:12:52.300
They always say Chicago politics is... all the world's a stage, and Chicago politics is a stage,

109
00:12:52.340 --> 00:12:58.900
but it's like theater, it's like sports, and I always... I can say that in writing and as a

110
00:12:58.900 --> 00:13:07.120
metaphor. You pick a man or a person to lead by their abilities, their experience, their know-how,

111
00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:13.820
and their background. Well, I'm going to tell you that there's no contest in this election,

112
00:13:14.860 --> 00:13:22.540
because the present mayor of Chicago, the present mayor of Chicago, and I give this analogy every

113
00:13:22.540 --> 00:13:24.940
place I go, let's go back...

114
00:14:07.360 --> 00:14:08.120
Yes, uh-huh.

115
00:14:11.080 --> 00:14:12.120
Hello, good...

116
00:14:12.120 --> 00:14:13.620
Hello, good...

117
00:14:14.360 --> 00:14:15.420
Hey, hey.

118
00:14:17.340 --> 00:14:19.340
Hello, dogs. Hey, good looking.

119
00:14:20.720 --> 00:14:24.220
Hey, where am I? There we are. Very good. Hey, hey.

120
00:14:24.360 --> 00:14:28.280
Put your hands back around me. Hey, hey. Mr. Staples. There we go.

121
00:14:28.480 --> 00:14:30.720
Big hand. Oh, law abyss. There we go.

122
00:14:30.760 --> 00:14:36.860
Black and white issue. This is an issue to unite Chicago for the good of all the citizens of

123
00:14:36.860 --> 00:14:44.180
all of them. If you start a campaign dividing a city, you're going to do nothing more than what

124
00:14:44.180 --> 00:14:52.380
we've already seen, and quite obviously, it hasn't worked. I'm not going to do that. Yes.

125
00:14:52.600 --> 00:14:54.860
You do talk about uniting the city, I guess my question is...

126
00:14:55.090 --> 00:15:00.090
... where the crime rate is higher and they are the victims.

127
00:15:01.570 --> 00:15:03.350
Oh, hey.

128
00:15:03.710 --> 00:15:05.490
Oh, hey.

129
00:15:06.710 --> 00:15:07.170
Hey, hey.

130
00:15:08.630 --> 00:15:09.970
Hey, hey.

131
00:15:11.650 --> 00:15:11.650


132
00:15:12.350 --> 00:15:13.530
Hey, hey.

133
00:15:15.250 --> 00:15:16.350
Hey, hey.

134
00:15:16.350 --> 00:15:17.170
Hey, hey.

135
00:15:17.170 --> 00:15:18.390
Hey, hey.

136
00:15:19.530 --> 00:15:21.490
The new Bible. The true squad.

137
00:15:22.110 --> 00:15:22.610
Oh, oh.

138
00:15:23.070 --> 00:15:23.870
Bottom line.

139
00:15:23.990 --> 00:15:24.850
There she goes.

140
00:15:26.650 --> 00:15:29.850
After you left your career, one of the doctors got me and wanted to know...

141
00:15:30.630 --> 00:15:32.450
I hesitated to tell you that.

142
00:15:33.970 --> 00:15:34.370
Thank you.

143
00:15:34.570 --> 00:15:35.090
Thank you.

144
00:15:36.970 --> 00:15:37.170
Thank you.

145
00:15:37.170 --> 00:15:37.810
Thank you.

146
00:15:37.810 --> 00:15:39.050
Thank you.

147
00:15:39.150 --> 00:15:40.870
Thank you.

148
00:15:40.870 --> 00:15:43.410
Thank you.

149
00:15:44.130 --> 00:15:46.230
The temple has worked.

150
00:15:47.990 --> 00:15:47.990


151
00:15:48.730 --> 00:15:49.850
And guess who?

152
00:15:51.810 --> 00:15:52.130
Thank you.

153
00:15:54.710 --> 00:15:55.050
Thank you.

154
00:15:55.510 --> 00:15:56.130
Thank you.

155
00:15:58.150 --> 00:15:59.190
Thank you.

156
00:15:59.330 --> 00:15:59.690
Thank you.

157
00:15:59.690 --> 00:16:03.450
Arrow, arrow, arrow, arrow.

158
00:16:03.510 --> 00:16:03.790
Arrow, arrow, arrow.

159
00:16:03.790 --> 00:16:05.870
... across the board.

160
00:16:06.390 --> 00:16:12.810
There has been some minor controversy over the last two days because my predecessor,

161
00:16:12.810 --> 00:16:20.270
Dr. Hugh, she always had trouble with numbers, and I was coming out in abundance.

162
00:16:20.870 --> 00:16:24.270
We had a campaign, you know, and I know it.

163
00:16:24.850 --> 00:16:28.010
It's not the question of raising the total money that's the problem.

164
00:16:29.010 --> 00:16:35.710
It's how you raise that money, who you get that money from, and the method in which you do so.

165
00:16:36.930 --> 00:16:38.190
We came into office.

166
00:16:38.930 --> 00:16:39.670
That was your call.

167
00:16:42.250 --> 00:16:43.290
Thank you.

168
00:16:43.570 --> 00:16:44.590
Thank you.

169
00:16:52.770 --> 00:16:53.070
Thank you.

170
00:16:53.070 --> 00:16:53.290
Thank you.

171
00:16:53.290 --> 00:16:53.990
Thank you.

172
00:16:54.530 --> 00:16:55.130
Thank you.

173
00:16:55.470 --> 00:16:56.170
Thank you.

174
00:16:56.170 --> 00:16:56.670
Thank you.

175
00:16:56.670 --> 00:16:57.090
Thank you.

176
00:16:57.090 --> 00:17:00.070
If you could vote, who would you vote for?

177
00:17:00.290 --> 00:17:01.170
Ms. Byrne.

178
00:17:02.150 --> 00:17:02.370
Same.

179
00:17:03.690 --> 00:17:04.530
Ms. Byrne.

180
00:17:05.330 --> 00:17:05.990
All right.

181
00:17:07.830 --> 00:17:15.350
We asked the committee and decent, unbiased campaign tactics to investigate whether or not

182
00:17:15.350 --> 00:17:21.070
Jane Byrne's campaign is using tactics to win votes on the basis of fear.

183
00:17:21.590 --> 00:17:24.430
If so, we consider the tactic dangerous.

184
00:17:25.050 --> 00:17:25.950
Thank you.

185
00:17:26.130 --> 00:17:28.450
What role did the mayor's office play in this news conference?

186
00:17:28.910 --> 00:17:30.150
This is not a role.

187
00:17:30.190 --> 00:17:32.970
The mayor's office has not played any role in this conference.

188
00:17:32.970 --> 00:17:37.490
This is a group of concerned citizens of the city of...

189
00:17:37.490 --> 00:17:41.010
If the board's ruling goes to the courts, are you confident that it will be upheld?

190
00:17:41.430 --> 00:17:45.930
I'm confident that it will be one-on-one, February 24, Harold and Jane,

191
00:17:46.090 --> 00:17:47.950
and I'm confident to say that I'm going to win.

192
00:17:48.230 --> 00:17:50.830
And you're confident that those signs, petition signs will be upheld?

193
00:17:50.830 --> 00:17:51.250
I believe that...

194
00:17:51.250 --> 00:17:52.290
Eddie! Eddie!

195
00:17:52.650 --> 00:17:53.490
Go get him!

196
00:17:56.230 --> 00:17:58.030
April 7th, Berdolik!

197
00:18:02.870 --> 00:18:04.430
Eddie! Eddie!

198
00:18:05.370 --> 00:18:07.910
Eddie! Eddie!

199
00:18:11.970 --> 00:18:16.970
He doesn't know how to manage, administrate, govern, direct their guy.

200
00:18:17.210 --> 00:18:18.430
And he has no plans.

201
00:18:19.290 --> 00:18:20.990
Well, we've got a plan for him.

202
00:18:21.410 --> 00:18:23.070
It's called early retirement.

203
00:18:23.770 --> 00:18:24.890
That's our plan for him.

204
00:18:24.890 --> 00:18:24.890


205
00:18:31.550 --> 00:18:33.370
Stand by the statement I made.

206
00:18:54.890 --> 00:18:57.650
...because all people like you,

207
00:18:57.930 --> 00:18:59.930
not the fat war chest,

208
00:19:00.330 --> 00:19:01.790
or the...

209
00:19:01.790 --> 00:19:03.410
and all of Chicago,

210
00:19:04.890 --> 00:19:06.530
at the end of this,

211
00:19:07.230 --> 00:19:08.750
will still have to go back

212
00:19:08.750 --> 00:19:12.210
to the fact that we must,

213
00:19:12.810 --> 00:19:13.550
the United City,

214
00:19:14.550 --> 00:19:17.990
that we must work on bringing jobs here.

215
00:19:18.290 --> 00:19:21.190
Harold! Harold! Harold!

216
00:19:21.190 --> 00:19:22.670
And that's Jenna Rosenstein.

217
00:19:22.730 --> 00:19:23.610
What's she talking about?

218
00:19:23.610 --> 00:19:25.930
I don't want to put that in the bill.

219
00:19:26.390 --> 00:19:30.970
I just was telling Jenna about all the wonderful events we had in the city.

220
00:19:30.970 --> 00:19:32.250
And how it could prove I'm sorry.

221
00:19:37.890 --> 00:19:41.570
Let me hear you whisper

222
00:19:42.390 --> 00:19:47.850
that you love me too.

223
00:19:49.270 --> 00:19:52.550
Keep the light glowing

224
00:19:53.930 --> 00:19:58.750
in your eyes so blue.

225
00:19:59.390 --> 00:20:03.590
Thank you. Bless all of you.

226
00:20:04.190 --> 00:20:05.410
Thank you. Bless all of you.

227
00:20:05.410 --> 00:20:07.530
I know, we gotta get going here.

228
00:20:07.710 --> 00:20:08.410
All the way.

229
00:20:10.030 --> 00:20:11.450
Thank you very much.

230
00:20:11.690 --> 00:20:13.010
You can get people back.

231
00:20:13.910 --> 00:20:14.170
Huh?

232
00:20:14.950 --> 00:20:15.590
Yes.

233
00:20:15.590 --> 00:20:17.670
These are the folks that opened the office.

234
00:20:18.050 --> 00:20:19.850
Leo and Sharon Petsunas and my wife.

235
00:20:20.450 --> 00:20:21.610
Thank you.

236
00:20:21.610 --> 00:20:22.910
We really needed it.

237
00:20:24.130 --> 00:20:25.730
Don't forget about us.

238
00:20:26.370 --> 00:20:27.110
Hi there, how are you?

239
00:20:27.210 --> 00:20:28.170
I need your help.

240
00:20:29.310 --> 00:20:32.590
I'm Jenna. I'm a friend of the President of Chicago.

241
00:20:33.050 --> 00:20:34.110
I need your vote.

242
00:20:35.430 --> 00:20:35.430


243
00:20:35.810 --> 00:20:36.770
Thank you.

244
00:20:37.270 --> 00:20:39.150
How are you?

245
00:20:39.550 --> 00:20:40.990
Nice to see you.

246
00:20:41.270 --> 00:20:41.750
What are you buying?

247
00:20:46.150 --> 00:20:47.050
This is the one.

248
00:20:48.470 --> 00:20:48.910
See?

249
00:20:50.330 --> 00:20:51.830
Hi, how are you?

250
00:20:52.090 --> 00:20:54.270
Those colors are great on you. Red, yellow, and gray.

251
00:20:54.350 --> 00:20:55.410
They're great on you.

252
00:20:55.710 --> 00:20:59.750
Thank you very much for inviting me to come to your church.

253
00:21:01.810 --> 00:21:03.810
As I said in my last stop,

254
00:21:04.530 --> 00:21:07.530
there was a meeting held in my office about two weeks ago.

255
00:21:07.970 --> 00:21:08.870
Two and a half.

256
00:21:10.350 --> 00:21:11.910
And a group of ministers came.

257
00:21:13.130 --> 00:21:15.890
And their message to me was that day,

258
00:21:16.710 --> 00:21:20.290
that you should come to the black community

259
00:21:20.290 --> 00:21:24.070
and the church is the house of God.

260
00:21:24.250 --> 00:21:24.570
Amen.

261
00:21:26.330 --> 00:21:29.330
We want to send the message back to Reagan

262
00:21:29.330 --> 00:21:31.570
and to the Republican Party.

263
00:21:32.970 --> 00:21:37.310
We are not better off now than we were four years ago.

264
00:21:41.910 --> 00:21:41.950
Thank you.

265
00:21:41.950 --> 00:21:46.550
Thank you.

266
00:21:46.550 --> 00:21:46.550


267
00:21:48.010 --> 00:21:50.250
Lord of the house, Lord of the house,

268
00:21:50.430 --> 00:21:51.790
the home of the free,

269
00:21:52.090 --> 00:21:54.410
Lord of the house, Lord of the house,

270
00:21:54.670 --> 00:21:55.810
the home of the free.

271
00:21:59.490 --> 00:22:00.670
What a place.

272
00:22:02.450 --> 00:22:03.070
Hey, Paul.

273
00:22:04.390 --> 00:22:05.650
Got the arrival.

274
00:22:05.910 --> 00:22:06.670
It's not a prison.

275
00:22:09.490 --> 00:22:10.470
It's a prison.

276
00:22:10.690 --> 00:22:10.730
Yeah!

277
00:22:19.090 --> 00:22:19.110
Yeah!

278
00:22:19.670 --> 00:22:19.670


279
00:22:19.670 --> 00:22:19.670


280
00:22:19.670 --> 00:22:19.670


281
00:22:19.670 --> 00:22:19.670


282
00:22:19.670 --> 00:22:19.670


283
00:22:19.670 --> 00:22:19.670


284
00:22:19.670 --> 00:22:19.670


285
00:22:19.750 --> 00:22:19.750


286
00:22:20.290 --> 00:22:20.330
Yeah!

287
00:22:22.250 --> 00:22:22.290
Yeah!

288
00:22:22.430 --> 00:22:22.470
Yeah!

289
00:22:23.050 --> 00:22:23.090
Yeah!

290
00:22:23.990 --> 00:22:24.030
Yeah!

291
00:22:27.510 --> 00:22:27.550
Yeah!

292
00:22:27.990 --> 00:22:28.030
Yeah!

293
00:22:31.510 --> 00:22:31.550
Yeah!

294
00:22:34.270 --> 00:22:34.310
Yeah!

295
00:22:34.310 --> 00:22:34.310


296
00:22:35.710 --> 00:22:35.750
Yeah!

297
00:22:35.750 --> 00:22:35.750


298
00:22:35.750 --> 00:22:35.750


299
00:22:35.750 --> 00:22:35.750


300
00:22:35.750 --> 00:22:35.750


301
00:22:35.750 --> 00:22:35.750


302
00:22:38.150 --> 00:22:38.190
Yeah!

303
00:22:38.190 --> 00:22:38.190


304
00:22:38.190 --> 00:22:38.190


305
00:22:38.190 --> 00:22:38.190


306
00:22:38.190 --> 00:22:38.190


307
00:22:38.190 --> 00:22:38.190


308
00:22:39.730 --> 00:22:39.770
Yeah!

309
00:22:39.790 --> 00:22:39.810
Yeah!

310
00:22:39.830 --> 00:22:39.850
Yeah!

311
00:22:39.910 --> 00:22:39.950
Yeah!

312
00:22:39.950 --> 00:22:39.950


313
00:22:39.950 --> 00:22:39.950


314
00:22:40.130 --> 00:22:40.170
Yeah!

315
00:22:40.190 --> 00:22:40.210
Yeah!

316
00:22:40.230 --> 00:22:40.250
Yeah!

317
00:22:40.270 --> 00:22:40.270


318
00:22:40.270 --> 00:22:40.270


319
00:22:40.270 --> 00:22:40.270


320
00:22:40.270 --> 00:22:40.270


321
00:22:40.270 --> 00:22:40.270


322
00:22:40.270 --> 00:22:40.270


323
00:22:40.270 --> 00:22:40.270


324
00:22:40.270 --> 00:22:40.270


325
00:22:40.270 --> 00:22:40.270


326
00:22:40.270 --> 00:22:40.270


327
00:22:40.270 --> 00:22:40.270


328
00:22:40.290 --> 00:22:40.310
Yeah!

329
00:22:40.330 --> 00:22:40.350
Yeah!

330
00:22:40.370 --> 00:22:40.390
Yeah!

331
00:22:40.410 --> 00:22:40.430
Yeah!

332
00:22:40.470 --> 00:22:40.630
Yeah!

333
00:22:43.670 --> 00:22:45.710
We gotta stay steady!

334
00:22:45.930 --> 00:22:46.770
Steady truck!

335
00:22:47.450 --> 00:22:48.710
Move ahead, please.

336
00:22:49.130 --> 00:22:49.830
Keep moving ahead.

337
00:22:50.010 --> 00:22:50.390
Faster!

338
00:22:50.510 --> 00:22:51.390
You gotta move it faster.

339
00:22:51.530 --> 00:22:52.110
Not as late.

340
00:23:20.270 --> 00:23:22.130
Kill somebody!

341
00:23:40.470 --> 00:23:40.710
Yeah!

342
00:23:41.790 --> 00:23:43.190
Yeah!

343
00:23:46.850 --> 00:23:48.250
Yeah!

344
00:23:48.250 --> 00:23:49.170
Yeah!

345
00:23:49.270 --> 00:23:50.670
Yeah!

346
00:23:50.670 --> 00:23:51.470
Yeah!

347
00:23:51.470 --> 00:23:52.570
Yeah!

348
00:23:52.570 --> 00:23:53.270
Yeah!

349
00:23:57.570 --> 00:23:58.970
Yeah!

350
00:24:01.430 --> 00:24:02.830
Yeah!

351
00:24:02.850 --> 00:24:04.250
Yeah!

352
00:24:04.870 --> 00:24:06.270
Yeah!

353
00:24:06.270 --> 00:24:06.690
Yeah!

354
00:24:06.690 --> 00:24:07.090
Yeah!

355
00:24:07.090 --> 00:24:08.030
Yeah!

356
00:24:08.510 --> 00:24:09.910
Yeah!

357
00:24:09.910 --> 00:24:10.050
Yeah!

358
00:24:10.090 --> 00:24:10.090


359
00:24:10.090 --> 00:24:10.090


360
00:24:10.090 --> 00:24:10.090


361
00:24:10.090 --> 00:24:10.090


362
00:24:10.090 --> 00:24:10.090


363
00:24:10.090 --> 00:24:10.090


364
00:24:10.110 --> 00:24:10.110


365
00:24:10.110 --> 00:24:10.110


366
00:24:10.110 --> 00:24:10.110


367
00:24:10.110 --> 00:24:10.110


368
00:24:10.110 --> 00:24:10.110


369
00:24:10.110 --> 00:24:10.110


370
00:24:10.110 --> 00:24:10.110


371
00:24:10.110 --> 00:24:10.110


372
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


373
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


374
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


375
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


376
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


377
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


378
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


379
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


380
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


381
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


382
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


383
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


384
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


385
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


386
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


387
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


388
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


389
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


390
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


391
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


392
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


393
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


394
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


395
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


396
00:24:10.130 --> 00:24:10.130


397
00:24:11.210 --> 00:24:18.650
It is my pleasure now to introduce you to the host county's chairman, the first county

398
00:24:18.650 --> 00:24:23.030
party of the world, and chairman of that county party, Edward Rebellion!

399
00:24:33.030 --> 00:24:38.530
So in this election, we're not gonna ask you to vote for a party or a person.

400
00:24:38.530 --> 00:24:44.510
We're gonna ask you to vote for your son, for your family, for your neighborhood, for

401
00:24:44.510 --> 00:24:47.750
your city, for your county, and for your state.

402
00:24:48.310 --> 00:24:50.870
Because it's the right thing to do.

403
00:24:55.070 --> 00:25:02.790
With the Republican Party, with the Republican Party in the last four years, we have seen

404
00:25:02.790 --> 00:25:06.570
the state income tax go up 24%.

405
00:25:09.010 --> 00:25:14.690
The Secretary of State is from Illinois, and the Secretary of Agriculture is from Illinois,

406
00:25:14.810 --> 00:25:15.810
and you know what we got?

407
00:25:16.410 --> 00:25:16.730
Nothing!

408
00:25:22.890 --> 00:25:25.490
And don't you believe what they say.

409
00:25:25.810 --> 00:25:27.090
Watch what they do.

410
00:25:27.590 --> 00:25:31.210
Ronald Reagan said I won't cut Social Security when he tried, we caught.

411
00:25:32.190 --> 00:25:35.130
He said I won't cut Medicare, and he did.

412
00:25:36.390 --> 00:25:37.290
And next to me...

413
00:26:10.710 --> 00:26:12.110
...
