Early life

Born on Chicago's South Side near the stockyards in 1902, Daley was the only child of blue-collar, immigrant Irish Catholic parents. Irish Catholics is a term used to describe people of Roman Catholic background who are Irish or of Irish descent. Daley attended Catholic elementary and high schools (where he learned clerical skills) and took night classes at DePaul University College of Law to earn a Juris Doctor in 1933. Juris Doctor (abbreviated JD or JD, from the Latin, Teacher of Law) is a first professional graduate degree and Professional Year 1933 ( MCMXXXIII) was a Common year starting on Sunday (link will display full calendar of the Gregorian calendar. Daley, though he practiced law with partner William J. Lynch, spent the majority of his time dedicated to his career in politics.

Political career

Early career

Daley's home from 1955 to 1976, located at 3536 S Lowe in Chicago, IL.

Although Daley was a lifelong Democrat, he was first elected to the Illinois General Assembly as a Republican in 1936. The Democratic Party is one of two major Political parties in the United States, the other being the Republican Party. The Illinois General Assembly is the Legislative branch of the Government of the state of Illinois in the United States, created by the This was a matter of political opportunism and the peculiar setup for legislative elections in Illinois at the time, which allowed Daley to take the place on the ballot of the recently deceased Republican candidate David Shanahan. David E Shanahan ( September 7, 1862 &ndash October 18, 1936) Illinois Republican state legislator and political leader After his election, Daley quickly moved back to the Democratic side of the aisle in 1938. Daley suffered his only political defeat in 1946, when he lost a bid to become Cook County sheriff. Cook County is a county in the US state of Illinois. It is the second most populous county in the United States after Los Angeles

First elected mayor in 1955 with a modest victory margin of 125,179 votes, Daley was re-elected to that office six times and had been mayor for 21 years at the time of his death. During his administration, Daley ruled the city with an iron hand and dominated the political arena of the city and, to a lesser extent, that of the entire state.

Daley married Eleanor "Sis" Guilfoyle on June 17, 1936, and they lived in a modest brick bungalow at 3536 South Lowe Avenue in the heavily Irish-American Bridgeport neighborhood, just blocks from his birthplace. Eleanor "Sis" Daley ( March 4, 1907 &ndash February 16, 2003) born Eleanor Guilfoyle was the wife of former Chicago Events 1462 - Vlad III the Impaler attempts to assassinate Mehmed II ( The Night Attack) forcing him to retreat Year 1936 ( MCMXXXVI) was a Leap year starting on Wednesday (link will display the full calendar of the Gregorian calendar.

Michael Daley is a partner in the law firm Daley & George, and Patricia (Daley) Martino and Mary Carol (Daley) Vanecko are teachers, as was Eleanor, who died in 1998. [1]

Major construction during his terms in office resulted in O'Hare International Airport, the Sears Tower, McCormick Place, the University of Illinois at Chicago campus, numerous expressways and subway construction projects, and other major Chicago landmarks. The Sears Tower, a Skyscraper in Chicago, Illinois, has been the tallest building in North America since 1973 History As early as 1927 Robert R McCormick and the newspaper he controlled the Chicago Tribune, championed a purpose-built lakeside The University of Illinois at Chicago, or UIC, is a state-funded public research university located in Chicago. O'Hare was a particular point of pride for Daley, with he and his staff regularly devising occasions to celebrate it.

In 1966, Martin Luther King, Jr. confronted the Daley machine when King attempted to take the Civil Rights Movement north and encourage racial integration of Chicago's neighborhoods, such as Marquette Park. Martin Luther King Jr ( January 15, 1929 April 4, 1968) was an American clergyman, Activist and prominent leader See also Protests of 1968 Historically the civil rights movement was a concentrated period of time around the world of approximately twenty years (1960-1980 in Racial integration, or simply integration includes Desegregation (the process of ending systematic Racial segregation) History The city of Chicago Lawn was founded by John F Eberhart in 1871 Daley called for a "summit conference" and signed an agreement with King and other community leaders to foster open housing. The agreement was without legal standing and ignored ^[1]. King's efforts in Chicago were largely unsuccessful, and his failure in Chicago was a serious setback for the Civil Rights Movement.

1968 and later career

The year 1968 was a momentous year for Daley. In April, Daley was castigated by many for his sharp rhetoric in the aftermath of rioting that took place after Martin Luther King, Jr. 's assassination. AssassiNation is the sixth album by Krisiun, released in 2006 on Century Media. Displeased with what he saw as an overly cautious police response to the rioting, Daley chastised police superintendent James B. Conlisk and subsequently related that conversation at a City Hall press conference as follows:

"I said to him very emphatically and very definitely that an order be issued by him immediately to shoot to kill any arsonist or anyone with a Molotov cocktail in his hand, because they're potential murderers, and to shoot to maim or cripple anyone looting. The Molotov cocktail, also known as the booze bomb, alcohol bomb or Molotov bomb, is a generic name used for a variety of improvised incendiary "

This statement generated significant controversy. While Daley's supporters deluged his office with grateful letters and telegrams (nearly 4,500 according to Time Magazine), and it has been credited for Chicago's being one of the cities least affected by the riots. But others were appalled. Rev. Jesse Jackson, for example, called it "a fascist's response. Jesse Louis Jackson Sr (born October 8 1941 is an American Civil rights activist and Baptist minister. " The Mayor later backed away from his words in an address to the City Council, saying:

"It is the established policy of the police department – fully supported by this administration – that only the minimum force necessary be used by policemen in carrying out their duties. "

Later that month, Daley asserted "There wasn't any shoot-to-kill order. That was a fabrication. "

In August, the 1968 Democratic National Convention was held in Chicago. Chicago Convention redirects here for the Convention on International Civil Aviation for the event also referred to by this name Intended to showcase Daley's achievements to national Democrats and the news media, the proceedings during the convention instead garnered notoriety for the mayor and city.

With the nation divided by the Vietnam War and with the assassinations of King and Robert F. Kennedy earlier that year serving as backdrop, the city became a battleground for anti-war protests who vowed to shut down the convention. The Vietnam War, also known as the Second Indochina War, or the Vietnam Conflict, occurred in Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia Robert Francis "Bobby" Kennedy (November 20 1925 – June 6 1968 also called RFK, was the United States Attorney General from 1961 to 1964 and a In some cases, confrontations between protesters and police turned violent, with images of this violence broadcast on national television. Later, radical activists Abbie Hoffman, Jerry Rubin, and three other members of the "Chicago Seven" were convicted of crossing state lines with the intent of inciting a riot as a result of these confrontations, though the convictions were overturned on appeal. Abbot Howard "Abbie" Hoffman (November 30 1936 &ndash April 12 1989 was a radical social and political activist in the United States who co-founded the Jerry Rubin ( July 14, 1938 – November 28, 1994) was a high-profile left-wing American social activist during the 1960s and The Chicago Seven were seven (originally eight known as the Chicago Eight) defendants charged with conspiracy inciting to Riot, and other charges related

At the convention itself, Sen. Abraham A. Ribicoff, D-Conn. Abraham Alexander Ribicoff ( April 9, 1910 February 22, 1998) was an American United States Democratic Party politician , went off-script during his speech nominating George McGovern, saying, "If George McGovern were president, we wouldn’t have these Gestapo tactics in the streets of Chicago. George Stanley McGovern " Ribicoff also tried to introduce a motion to shut down the convention and move it to another city. Many conventioneers applauded Ribicoff's remarks but an indignant Mayor Daley tried to shout down the speaker. Daley is said to have uttered antisemitic slurs against Ribicoff^[2][3], a charge denied by Daley and refuted by Mike Royko's reporting. Michael "Mike" Royko ( September 19, 1932 &ndash April 29, 1997) was a newspaper Columnist in Chicago, Illinois ^[4] A federal commission, led by local attorney and party activist Daniel Walker, later investigated the events surrounding the convention and described them as a "police riot. Daniel Walker (born August 6, 1922) is a former Democratic governor of the U " Daley's supporters challenged Walker's credibility because of his well-known opposition to Daley and Chicago machine politics. A political machine is an unofficial system of a political organization based on Patronage, the Spoils system, "behind-the-scenes" control and longstanding Despite a decline in popularity following 1968, Daley was historically re-elected for the fifth time in 1971. However, many have argued this was due to a lack of formidable opposition rather than Daley's own popularity. ^[5]

In 1972, Democratic nominee George McGovern threw Daley out of the Democratic National Convention (replacing his delegation with one led by Jesse Jackson). George Stanley McGovern Jesse Louis Jackson Sr (born October 8 1941 is an American Civil rights activist and Baptist minister. This event arguably marked a downturn in Daley's power and influence within the Democratic Party but, given his public standing, McGovern later made amends by putting Daley loyalist (and Kennedy in-law) Sargent Shriver on his ticket. Robert Sargent Shriver Jr (born November 9 1915 is an American Democratic Politician and Activist.

Controversy

In 1939, Senator Botchy Connors remarked

"you couldn't give that guy a nickel, that's how honest he is. "

However, in January 1973, former Illinois Racing Board Chairman William S. Miller testified that Daley had "induced" him to bribe Illinois Governor Otto Kerner.

This scandal marked the start of two years of controversy where the integrity of the Mayor and his office was strongly questioned.

On December 20, 1976, Daley suffered a massive heart attack while visiting his doctor's office and died at the age of 74.

Daley was known by many Chicagoans as "Da Mare" ("The Mayor"), "Hizzoner" ("His Honor"), and "The Man on Five" (his office was on the fifth floor of City Hall). Since Daley's death and the subsequent election of son Richard as mayor in 1989, the first Mayor Daley has become known as "Boss Daley," "Old Man Daley," or "Daley Senior" to residents of Chicago. Richard Michael Daley (born April 24 1942 is a United States Politician, member of the national and local Democratic Party and current mayor

Speaking style

Daley was known for his ineffectual and erroneous diction. He often said he was exhilarating a program, rather than accelerating it, and called a bicycle built for two a tantrum bicycle. One of Daley's most memorable quotations was uttered in 1968 while defending what the news media reported as police misconduct during that year's violent and confrontational Democratic Convention. Chicago Convention redirects here for the Convention on International Civil Aviation for the event also referred to by this name "Gentlemen, get the thing straight once and for all — the policeman isn't there to create disorder, the policeman is there to preserve disorder. " Another notable Daley quotation was his statement that "We shall reach greater and greater platitudes of achievement. A platitude is a trite meaningless biased or prosaic Statement that is presented as if it were significant and original "

Earl Bush, the mayor's press aide, once chastised reporters, saying "You should have printed what he meant, not what he said. "

Democratic machine politics

Known for shrewd party politics, Daley was the prototypical "machine" politician, and his Chicago Democratic Machine, based on control of thousands of patronage positions, was instrumental in bringing a narrow 8,000 vote victory in Illinois for John F. Kennedy in 1960. Chicago machine redirects here For the Major League Lacrosse team see Chicago Machine. John Fitzgerald "Jack" Kennedy (May 29 1917&ndashNovember 22 1963 often referred to by his initials JFK, was the thirty-fifth President of The United States presidential election of 1960 marked the end of Dwight D

Daley was usually open with the news media, meeting with them for frequent news conferences, and taking all questions — if not answering all of them. According to columnist and biographer Mike Royko, Daley got along better with editors and publishers than with reporters. Michael "Mike" Royko ( September 19, 1932 &ndash April 29, 1997) was a newspaper Columnist in Chicago, Illinois

Daley had limited opposition among the 50 aldermen of the Chicago City Council. The Chicago City Council is the Legislative branch of the Government of the City of Chicago in Illinois. The Chicago City Council is the Legislative branch of the Government of the City of Chicago in Illinois. For the most part, the aldermen supported Daley and the official party position consistently, except for a small number of Republicans from the German wards on the northwest side of the city and a small number of independents (a group that grew during Daley's mayoralty to represent groups that felt disenfranchised by Daley's policies).

Daley's chief means of attaining electoral success was his reliance on the local precinct captain, who marshaled and delivered votes on a neighborhood-by-neighborhood basis. Many of these precinct captains held patronage jobs with the city, mostly minor posts at low pay. Each ward had a ward leader in charge of the precinct captains, some of whom were corrupt. The notorious First Ward (encompassing downtown, which had many businesses but few residents) was tied to the local mafia or crime syndicate, but Daley's own ward was clean and his personal honesty was never questioned successfully. The Mafia (also known as Cosa Nostra) is a Sicilian Criminal Secret society which is believed to have first developed in the mid-19th century "Crime syndicate" redirects here For the DC Comics group of villains see Crime Syndicate.

Legacy

At his death in 1976, much of the general public's perception of Daley was the image painted by Mike Royko in his 1971 biography, Boss—corrupt, racist, cruel, mean, brutal. Michael "Mike" Royko ( September 19, 1932 &ndash April 29, 1997) was a newspaper Columnist in Chicago, Illinois Year 1971 ( MCMLXXI) was a Common year starting on Friday (link will display full calendar of the 1971 Gregorian calendar. In light of the later events, such as New York City's fiscal crisis, Daley's reputation has been rehabilitated, as shown by a poll of 160 historians, political scientists and urban experts. The City of New York They ranked Daley as the sixth best mayor in American history. (Holli 1999) Daley's ways may not have been democratic, but his defenders have argued that he got positive things done for Chicago which a non-boss would have been unable to do. While detractors point out that he did nothing to integrate what had then become known as the most segregated city in the nation, others argue that he was acting on behalf of his constituency, who did not want an integrated Chicago.

On the 50th anniversary of Daley's first 1955 swearing-in, several dozen Daley biographers and associates met at the Chicago Historical Society. Year 1955 ( MCMLV) was a Common year starting on Saturday (link displays the 1955 Gregorian calendar) Chicago History Museum (formerly known as the Chicago Historical Society) was founded in 1856 Historian Michael Beschloss called Daley "the pre-eminent mayor of the 20th century.

Cleveland is a City in the US state of Ohio and the County seat of Cuyahoga County, the most populous county in the state " Many feel that by revitalizing the downtown area and firmly fixing the middle-class in place in the city limits, Daley probably did save Chicago from declining to the extent of the average Rust Belt city.
