For someone my age the mayor of Boston will always be Kevin White. Not Menino or Ray Flynn. Kevin White. He lived a long time, and kicked a lot of ass. Whitey was there at the same time, too, so I am under no pretense that White was a saint, but he did a good job dealing with the court ordered busing of high school students in the city.
Of course now, Boston is every bit as segregated as pre-busing, but Mayor White did a good job. He was a good man and one on the great Bostonians of any era. And that's saying something.
