here's colonel daley in his little shed. how do we describe him? he's sort of a 1890's bohemian, a bit of a herm yit. most importantly, he was a friend of adolph sutro's. and sutro had a real estate shack on the northwest corner of the sunset. he let colonel daley squat in there essentially. he went out every morning, walked along the beach. whatever washed up he brought back to his shed and created quite a large little compound of old bottles, shoes, anything that washed up. a ship wreck. provided a bunch of lumber. he made a sleeping loft in his cabin. for a while he had a wife. she didn't wash up in the waves. but she did eventually wash out. she couldn't handle cooking in the sandunes every night, creating a fire. so she left him sometime in the late 18920 -- 1890's. but daley took one of those cars we were talking about and opened this little coffee saloon where he sold sandwiches, doughnuts, and little items to the picnicers who came out to the beach on the weekends. and soon other people, they kind of were charmed by this little old horse ca

another is mayor daley. i remember back in 1989 and many , how raciallyell divided the city was at the time and incapable of doing the things that were necessary to deal with challenges. it was a difficult time for our city. you can see evidence of daily's -- of mayor daley's achievements in the city. what he should feel good about and what we should celebrate is what he did to put this city back together in 1989. rich daley is a unique character. he eats and lives and breathes chicago. he came to the office that way. he never had any of aspiration. he was not looking to be governor or senator or anything else. he had this understanding. he knows this and he grew up with this stuff. he understood this city at a granular level. he understood every block of the city. he understood the neighborhoods. he has a genius for cities generally. rahm emanuel as a genius for government. he has a genius or politics. i think that is going to serve him well. i have been impressed with the way he has handled him during -- h

but my point is in reality all he said was imagine if robert kennedy had lived in -- so mayor daley who was the symbol of the old guard, the old politics, if he was back in the peace candidate, you don't have all those demonstrators. you only have the radicals in their marginalize. that was the extent of my answer. then i went home and couldn't sleep. because of all these other things that occurred to me, specifically if you looked at the members in 1968, humphrey had the support of the old guard and in those days, unlike now a lot of the states there were no primaries. the bosses, leaders had the delegates. so the general calculation was it was going to be very tough for robert kennedy to win even after winning the primaries. but if he had survived an assassination attempt, which is the plot in here, and you think about what happened with ronald reagan after he survived john hinckley and you think of the relief and the goodwill and the good grace and humor with which reagan dealt with that -- that turned out to be enormously important. if you picture robert kennedy responding the same

so i started being associate to this question and i thought if mayor daley back to robert kennedy, that whole demonstration in chicago radical change is. >> host: we need to backup a bit. with each of these instances, jeff, and remind people of what really happened. first of all, it's 1968. johnson has announced he's not going to run. the vietnam war is killing him, quite literally. and hubert humphrey is running, and eugene mccarthy runs. and mccarthy does better than anyone expected and then bobby announces. >> guest: causing a lot of ill will which it earned in one sense, and bobby has won all but the oregon primaries and then it's the california primary. but my point is in the reality where all he said then imagine if robert kennedy had lived and sotomayor daley who was the symbol of the old guard, the old politics, if he was backing the peace candidate, you don't have all those demonstration. you only have the radicals. that was the extent of my answer. then i went home and i couldn't sleep because all these other things occur to me, specifically if you look at the numbers in 1968,

as we started this questionnaire and said if mayor daley back robert kennedy then the whole demonstration stop in chicago radically changed. >> host: i think we need to back up just a little bit. with each of these instances remind people of what really happened. first of all its 1968. johnson -- 68, right? johnson has announced he's not going to run. the imam war is killing and hubert humphrey and eugene mccarthy runs and mccarthy does better than anyone expected and body announces. >> guest: causing a lot of ill will hear and and all the has won all but the word in primaries and then it's the california primary. imagine if robert kennedy had lived and so mayor daley who was the symbol of the old guard, the old politics if he was backing the peace candidate you don't have all those demonstrators you only have the radicals and they are marginalized then i went home and i couldn't sleep because of all these other things that occurred to me specifically. if you look at the numbers of 1968 humphrey had the support of the old guard and in those days on like now a lot of the states during the

in the reality world, all i said imagine if robert kennedy had lived so mayor daley who was the symbolf the old guard, of the old politics. if he was backing the peace candidate you don't have all those demonstrators and you don't have all those radicals and they are marginalized and that was my answer and i couldn't sleep. because all these other things occurred to me, specifically, if you looked at the numbers in 1968, humphrey had the support of the old guard and in those days, unlike now, a lot of the states do the primaries. the bosses, leaders had the delegate. so the general calculation it was going to be very difficult for kennedy to win even after winning the primaries but if he had survived an assassination attempt which is the plot in here and you think about what happened with ronald reagan after he survived john hinkley and you think of the relief and the good will and the good grace and humor with which reagan dealt with that, i turned out to be enormously important to him. well, if you picture robert kennedy responding the same way, the dynamic of the 1968 campaign now t

the other one is mayor daley. i remember how riveted the city was at the time, a racially divided, incapable of doing the things that were necessary to deal with obvious challenges. it was a difficult time for our city. and he -- you can see evidence of his ingenious and envision all over the city, but perhaps the greatest achievement that he should feel really good about, and we should celebrate is what he did to put this city back together in 1989. he is a unique character. obviously he eats and lives chicago. he came to the office that way. he never had any other aspiration. he was not looking to be governor or senator or anything else. he had this understanding of the city at a very granule level. he understood every block of the city. he understood the neighborhoods. he has a genius for the city generally. rahm emanuel has a genius for governments and a genius for politics, and i think that will serve him well. i have been impressed with the way he has handled himself during the election and since the electio

as "the new york times" put it this morning, new york had its fiorello laguardia, chicago had its daleysbaltimore had william donald schaefer. well, william donald schaefer has died. and while he was also the governor of maryland, he'll go down as one of the great big city mayors of the past 100 years. he was born in baltimore, went to baltimore city college and the university of baltimore law school. a world war ii vet, his motto in office became "do it now." he transformed baltimore. he cleaned it up, sometimes by hand. he built it up to include harbor place, camden yards, and the aquarium. he introduced things like urban homesteading and adopt a pothole. william donald schaefer was 89 years old. >>> up next here tonight, in the face of disaster a new reason to believe in the power of people making a difference. >>> finally tonight, our "making a difference" report. once again there's been a natural disaster in the u.s., and once again people have stepped up to help without being asked. nbc's kerry sanders reports tonight from the tornado damage zone in north carolina. >> oh, my baby.

indianapolis, a group of us who were all friends were elected mayors of large cities at the time -- rich daley in chicago and ed rendell in philadelphia, kurt schmoke in baltimore. i like cities and kind of watch what they do. but this is a particularly interesting time for cities because revenues are down, expenses are up, a lot of stress in a lot of places particularly the protracted recession, although new york's been a little bit better off than most cities. still has folks who are struggling. it's the common issues of people across the country who struck me, a, but b, the difficulty of injecting innovative reform in a really large bureaucracy also struck me as well. >> i have a lot of former things that you've written and also stories about you. what's the difference between being mayor of indianapolis and being deputy mayor of new york when it comes to the media? >> well, this -- there's more here and they're more aggressive. now, in -- i think media and cities have changed, by the way. i mean, the local hometown paper, which both was a cheerleader and could afford investigative reporter
