Daley was one of a kind; you'll never see another like him. He devoted his life to Chicago for 21 years and did something for every class of citizen. As to the crook comment above, Mr. Daley lived in the same home and neighborhood for his entire reign as mayor and he definitely was not a pretentious man. Maybe some of those around him were crooked, but not him. He was also a very charitable person and true to what charities s/b, he did not toot his own horn.

@rucksplash08 Yes, I know what a mid-Atlantic accent is. FDR and Eleanor Roosevelt had mid-Atlantic accents. And even stars at MGM were taught to speak that way. Thank you.

@xander7ful That's nothing like a South African accent, though...Daly was born to American parents in SA and returned at a young age. That's a Mid-Atlantic accent, more commonly known as a "boarding school" accent, the accent of the US upper class of the time, which was the standard in the theatre and therefore in the media in the US at least into the 1960s.

@JG40061 This clip of Mayor Daley was a week before the 1956 convention, not the 1968 convention. Both years, the Democratic convention was held in Chicago.
-
@cldwarkids Oh yes, he had an accent. He was born in South Africa.

'i know of no city in the country that handles conventions as well as your town'

No, Daley was much more crooked than Nixon. Nixon made a couple of bad choices, Daley was a crook for years and years.
