Reineke: We’re here at my current employer, which is Hill & Knowlton, Inc. It’s a public relations firm, and we’re located at the Merchandise Mart in downtown Chicago. DePue: Which has a fascinating history itself. Someday I’ll have to delve into that one. We’re obviously here to talk about your experiences in the Edgar administration, but you had a lot of years working with Jim Thompson as well, so we’re going to take quite a bit of time. In today’s session, I don’t know that we’ll get to much of the Edgar experience because you’ve got enough information to talk about before that time, which is valuable history for us.

    Interview with Jim Edgar # ISG-A-L-2009-019.26 Interview # 26: December 14, 2010 Interviewer: Mark DePue DePue: The next person I wanted to ask you about is President Barack Obama. We had talked about him before, but it was always in the context of these other decisions that you were making or with the Blagojevich situation. What do you think about his emergence as a politician? Edgar: Oh, it’s phenomenal. I mean, here’s a guy that’s a state senator, and all of a sudden he’s president (laughs) of the United States within a matter of, what, a little more than two years. That’s a phenomenal accomplishment. DePue: Did he have a prominent role, as you recall, in the Illinois Senate? Edgar: No, no. When I was there, he was a freshman member, and he was in the minority party, so that’s about as insignificant as you could be. I think he was elected in ’96, so the last two years I was governor, he was in the state Senate. But I remember early in that session after the election, my staff person who was working the Senate came to me and said, “Boy, there’s really a bright new African American in the Senate. He is really impressive.” I was rather dubious. I had heard that before. As I often said, when I was a young person, we thought Jesse Jackson was really special; then I think most of us decided that wasn’t true. So I was a little… They make good speeches; sometimes they don’t follow up.

  • How and Why Illinois Abolished the Death Penalty
    Minnesota Journal of Law & Inequality Volume 30 Issue 2 Article 2 December 2012 How and Why Illinois Abolished the Death Penalty Rob Warden Follow this and additional works at: https://lawandinequality.org/ Recommended Citation Rob Warden, How and Why Illinois Abolished the Death Penalty, 30(2) LAW & INEQ. 245 (2012). Available at: https://scholarship.law.umn.edu/lawineq/vol30/iss2/2 Minnesota Journal of Law & Inequality is published by the University of Minnesota Libraries Publishing. 245 How and Why Illinois Abolished the Death Penalty Rob Wardent Introduction The late J. Paul Getty had a formula for becoming wealthy: rise early, work late-and strike oil.' That is also the formula for abolishing the death penalty, or at least it is a formula-the one that worked in Illinois. When Governor Pat Quinn signed legislation ending capital punishment in Illinois on March 9, 2011, he tacitly acknowledged the early rising and late working that preceded the occasion. "Since our experience has shown that there is no way to design a perfect death penalty system, free from the numerous flaws that can lead to wrongful convictions or discriminatory treatment, I have concluded that the proper course of action is to abolish it." 2 The experience to which the governor referred was not something that dropped like a gentle rain from heaven upon the place beneath and seeped into his consciousness by osmosis. Rather, a cadre of public defenders, pro bono lawyers, journalists, academics, and assorted activists, devoted tens of thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands, of hours, over more than three decades, to the abolition movement.

  • Sex Is Not Without Its Advantages
    Sex is not without its advantages Now that the baseball season in town is effectively over, cook up a good local sex scandal or two to divert attention away from these far more serious issues. July 25, 2013 By Allen R. Sanderson As Chicago's homicide rate and Illinois' pension crisis continue to garner national media attention and spiral out of control, our city and state politicians are Nero-like in their responses. We need some bold action, or at least diversion, and soon, or we risk sinking even lower on the political radar screen — we are only fifth in state population and thanks to Toronto, we are now the fifth-largest city in North America. The "flyover" section of our country has a lot to learn from the coasts — and even abroad. Thus I offer this humble suggestion: Now that the baseball season in town is effectively over, cook up a good local sex scandal or two to divert attention away from these far more serious issues. I'm not asking for an Anthony Weiner on any given day. And not even a John Edwards. But can't we at least produce in this city and state someone on the order of Eliot Spitzer or Silvio Berlusconi? I'd even settle for Mark Sanford or David Vitter. Sure, we have had more than our fair share of high-profile felons — former Govs. Rod Blagojevich, George Ryan, Dan Walker, Otto Kerner. But for what? Corruption, racketeering, bribery, fraud. Boring stuff. Where were the sexting emails, prostitutes, strippers, mistresses, photos of a blue dress or the Appalachian Trail? Our about-one-scandal-per-year Chicago aldermen have gotten their three squares a day at the public trough for the mundane: corruption, bribery, tax evasion.
