MEMORANDC~vl FOR PATRICK J BUCI-L-NAN

FROM KE~ETH L KILtCHIGLtN

A Gallup Poll released on July 5th with interview date prior bull

to the Supreme Court ruling showed that 45 of the American public

had not heard or read about the Pentagon paper s Considering that

millions of words and hours of tele-ision time have been devoted to

this very n1ajor news event it is interesting that alrnost half the

public greeted thE event with a yawn

I think this phenoInonon tells us son1ethiEg very important nanlely

the propensity of those of uS in Washington to be inordinately influenced

by what is printec in the POST the TIMES or v hat appears on network

television Our instinct seenlS always to atter)pt to counter that

which has becon-Ie conventional -i5uam on the Eastern seaboard rZJt-her than

concerning ourselves a little more vith what happens west of the Alleghenies

Ve should al so learn from this that specific issues and events are

transitory in nature They are not the things V hich will ultimately

influence the voters on election day Thus it is U1Y candid opinion

that the precious commodity called Presidential presence is being

expended on specific s which are not determinative factor s in the

contemporary Anlerican political experience

Page 2

bull Events taking place today or even a year from today will

probabl y have little impact on the 1972 elections Events and headline s

come and go But ressiol1s as opposed to events are built up

over months and year s and it is my belief that such impresions will have a greater impact on voter behavior than do specific

occurrence s

Two substantive issues loom large in every Presidential

election war and peace and the economy The Pre sident told us

this at the midterm election post-mortem last November With those

two exceptions substantive issues will not govern in any Inajor way the

ability of the President to be rc -elected (barring a scandal or major

gaffe )

In short welfare refarD1 revenue sharing ecology and other

substantive matters (including to some extent I think law and order)

should not be the mjor thrusts of Presidential elnphasis during the

campaign We have programs in these areas and we have initiatives

OU opporrents canot accus~ us of i2Ctio1 B~)r0nd tlat that 1he

President ought to be really talking about what I think are the

impression-creating matters

---------------------------------------shyPage 3

------------------~-~~-

We hare got to use the Presidency to our greatest advantage

and that 111eans communicating to the people the stuff of the Presidency

It will require the President to address himself in the campaign to such

broad subjects as social stability belief in our future a visionof

whats ahead for America a sense of direction and purpose and

finall y a rejection of all those who are afraid of the future

Franklin Roosevelt was his own best P R man He convinced

the public in one of Anlericas darkest hours that fear (read

pessimism) vas the only thing to fear This one public posture has

enabled Rooseyelt to make hazy the rest of the history of that period

And ve must do the sarne President Nixon should confront

the masochistic self-flagellating hysteria vruch is generated so often

in the media tha~ it has become belicyable I rcally belie e the

President can brand it as a great deal of hogwash I 111ean a bit l110re

than the Whats Right With America speech I think the theme has

to be a little more profound and philosophicaJ a theme which will

stir middle America to a rejection of those who are bleating over a

sick An)erica

As always the President has led the way in this I think

his own remarks and speeches reflect precisely what I am arguing

If you read the transcript of the Kansas City Briefing you will see

that the inspiring nature of his talk is the kind of rhetoric which will

be required in 1972 But we have to go beyond that and support

bull the President 1n that theme So in a full-blovn campaign the

media effort the support effort of all the players the 3ctivities

of Cabinet and senior Vhite House Staff should reflect a positive

affirmation of the steady leadership that this President has brought

to the nation in a troubled time

This is our greatest asset and it should be hammered home

to those who concern theJnselves with Presidential iTnage-rnaking

We dont need to make an image or change an in1age we only ha ve to

project thoughtful y and intelligentl y that vhich we already have

VIe dont work for Richard Nixon because of revenue sharing and

reorganization We work for him because in each one of us he triggers

a n1echanism vhich says this man is the right man for Alnerica in

this particular tirne of history Those things are impressions They

MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT

FROM PATRICK J BUCHANAN

SUBJECT The Odds Against Henry Jackson

That Senator Jackson is a candidate for his partys nomination -- there is no question That he can win it -- there appears little hope But Jackson has some very high cards to play which make him a strong contender for Vice President and a powerful force at the Democratic National Convention

JACKSONS STRENG THS

1 He has almost all the moderate and conservative columnists in the palm of his hand They like admire and respect Scoop Jackson A cursory review of the last three months finds supportive presidential talk about Jackson from colmnnists White both Alsops Kilpatrick Alexander Cuneo the Drummonds several times Gould Lincoln Chamberlain Wilson -- and on and on (Evans amp Novak are solicitous) They provide him with regular backpage support in most of the papers of the nation Even columnists who disagree with him (Wicker Viorst) respect him

2 A choice not an echo He is the single national Democrat who stands as a clear alternative against the crowd of Bayh Hughes Muskie 1t1cGovern Humphrey Kennedy crowd He emerges thus a visible rallying point for conservative Democrats at the 72 convention

3 Having hired the capable adviser Ben Wattenburg he is paralleling the Scammon-Wattenburg thesis His attacks on I environmental extremists II his denunciation of fellow Democrats for paying homage to the radical fringe 11 his focus on bread-and-butter issues the economy and jobs his call for Democrats to stay on the II Economic Is sue not the war his rough terminology which is being described in liberal circles as Agnewian -shyin all these instances Jackson is setting himself up against the trendy

bell-bottomed elite of the left wing of his party - - and with the working man center and right of his party On issues he is carving out his own independent sector within the Democratic Party

4 His super-hawkish anti-Soviet stand in the Middle East his fight for SST againsthe environmental extremists 11 for space and defense not only make him first choice of George Meany -- but guarantee a well-financed campaign from Aerospace from Defense Industries from the Jewish Community from Big Labor

5 He is well respected by his Senate colleagues A Drummond Poll of the Senate found that 18 percent of Democrats felt Jackson most qualified to be President ahead of Humphrey -- second only to Muskie (interestingly EMK got les s than anyone three percent or one vote of those polled )

6 He gets excellent pres s coverage

7 His hard-line on the Soviets and on strategic defense wins him publicity plaudits from the Republican Conservative Community While such is of little use in a run for the nomination it might be to any Democrat for his Vice President

8 On Vietnam he is down-playing his support of the President leaving it high enough to be visibly oppos ed to the rest of the pack but shading it a bit Domestically he pays occasional obeisance to such myths as the repres sian by the Administration Enough to keep his dues up - - but not nearly enough to close the sizable gap that exists between him and the liberal left of his party

9 He is the best vote-getter in the Senate -- winning his primary against a Galbraithian type by 85 percent - - and beating our candidate in the general by the same margin -- 85 percent of the vote in a northwestern industrial state This evidence of massive support across the party lines and throughout the ideological spectrum makes him especially attractive as a Vice Presidential nominee

10 His strength with press was evident in a poll of editors at ASNE who felt he would probably have nearly best chance of any Democrat of defeating RN

3

DEFICIENCES

1 He has allnost no recognition nationally This will force him to raise his profile rapidly to announce fairly early and probably to go the primary route - - and it is doubtful how well he can do against Democrats like Muskie

2 He is apparently an unexciting speaker who often bores even those audiences who agree with him One friend called him a IIBarry Goldwater without charisma TT

3 His nomination would sunder the Democratic Party And with left-wing strength greater at this convention than the past difficult to see how his nomination could be swallowed by a Demo cratic Convention (However if a Teddy Kennedy were nominated and Democratic conservatives sufficiently outraged - - a Kennedy-Jackson ticket might do for the party what the Kennedy-Johnson ticket did in 1960 bring it together again Where Johnson had the opposition of Labor and support of the South - shyJackson for Veep would have both the South and Labor in his corner)

4 He is sixty years old at least will be when the Democratic Convention is over This is his last chance to be on a national Democratic ticket after three decades in the Senate

JACKSON1S CHANCE

Having carved out an independent Churchillian sition if you will on the Soviets on the Middle East -- whence war is likely to corne if it comes - - Jackson is dependent upon circumstances If the Vietnam war is raging and there is calm between East and West - - Jackson has next to nothing going for him

But if Vietnam is removed as an issue and the Soviets become belligerent in Europe or the Middle East or the Mediterranean or anywhere then Jackson may very well appear the man for the times If national focus turns upon American weaknes s in the face of a rapidly arming Soviet Elnpire then Jackson could generate real support among Conservative Democrats Meany unions and the South -- and even conservative Republicans

4

No other Democrat seems today capable of making credible a hard-line policy against the USSR

But in such times Jackson will 1a ve a long shot for the top position and an inside track for the Vice Presidency

THE FLORIDA PRIMARY

Jackson cannot win in New Hampshire his lack of public recognition requires him to step out early if he is to have any hope at the Convention Thus he is forced it seems into the primaries Thus Florida -- according to two writers -- which is the same day as New Hampshire - - becomes crucial to Jackson

If Jackson wins in Florida and Muskie is defeated then the Muskie opening day becomes a flop Muskies candidacy is damaged the Jackson candidacy becomes interesting -- and the stage is set for a bitter division at the Convention

While we may be desirous ours elves of having a massive turnout for RN in Florida - - there may be something worth while for us in as sisting the efforts of Scoop Jackson in that State Something we ought to keep in mind

3

DEFICIENCES

1 He has allnost no recognition nationally This will force him to raise his profile rapidly to announce fairly early and probably to go the primary route - - and it is doubtful how well he can do against Democrats like Muskie

2 He is apparently an unexciting speaker who often bores even those audiences who agree with him One friend called him a IIBarry Goldwater without charisma TT

3 His nomination would sunder the Democratic Party And with left-wing strength greater at this convention than the past difficult to see how his nomination could be swallowed by a Demo cratic Convention (However if a Teddy Kennedy were nominated and Democratic conservatives sufficiently outraged - - a Kennedy-Jackson ticket might do for the party what the Kennedy-Johnson ticket did in 1960 bring it together again Where Johnson had the opposition of Labor and support of the South - shyJackson for Veep would have both the South and Labor in his corner)

4 He is sixty years old at least will be when the Democratic Convention is over This is his last chance to be on a national Democratic ticket after three decades in the Senate

JACKSON1S CHANCE

Having carved out an independent Churchillian sition if you will on the Soviets on the Middle East -- whence war is likely to corne if it comes - - Jackson is dependent upon circumstances If the Vietnam war is raging and there is calm between East and West - - Jackson has next to nothing going for him

But if Vietnam is removed as an issue and the Soviets become belligerent in Europe or the Middle East or the Mediterranean or anywhere then Jackson may very well appear the man for the times If national focus turns upon American weaknes s in the face of a rapidly arming Soviet Elnpire then Jackson could generate real support among Conservative Democrats Meany unions and the South -- and even conservative Republicans

4

No other Democrat seems today capable of making credible a hard-line policy against the USSR

But in such times Jackson will 1a ve a long shot for the top position and an inside track for the Vice Presidency

THE FLORIDA PRIMARY

Jackson cannot win in New Hampshire his lack of public recognition requires him to step out early if he is to have any hope at the Convention Thus he is forced it seems into the primaries Thus Florida -- according to two writers -- which is the same day as New Hampshire - - becomes crucial to Jackson

If Jackson wins in Florida and Muskie is defeated then the Muskie opening day becomes a flop Muskies candidacy is damaged the Jackson candidacy becomes interesting -- and the stage is set for a bitter division at the Convention

While we may be desirous ours elves of having a massive turnout for RN in Florida - - there may be something worth while for us in as sisting the efforts of Scoop Jackson in that State Something we ought to keep in mind

bull Events taking place today or even a year from today will

probabl y have little impact on the 1972 elections Events and headline s

come and go But ressiol1s as opposed to events are built up

over months and year s and it is my belief that such impresions will have a greater impact on voter behavior than do specific

occurrence s

Two substantive issues loom large in every Presidential

election war and peace and the economy The Pre sident told us

this at the midterm election post-mortem last November With those

two exceptions substantive issues will not govern in any Inajor way the

ability of the President to be rc -elected (barring a scandal or major

gaffe )

In short welfare refarD1 revenue sharing ecology and other

substantive matters (including to some extent I think law and order)

should not be the mjor thrusts of Presidential elnphasis during the

campaign We have programs in these areas and we have initiatives

OU opporrents canot accus~ us of i2Ctio1 B~)r0nd tlat that 1he

President ought to be really talking about what I think are the

impression-creating matters

---------------------------------------shyPage 3

------------------~-~~-

We hare got to use the Presidency to our greatest advantage

and that 111eans communicating to the people the stuff of the Presidency

It will require the President to address himself in the campaign to such

broad subjects as social stability belief in our future a visionof

whats ahead for America a sense of direction and purpose and

finall y a rejection of all those who are afraid of the future

Franklin Roosevelt was his own best P R man He convinced

the public in one of Anlericas darkest hours that fear (read

pessimism) vas the only thing to fear This one public posture has

enabled Rooseyelt to make hazy the rest of the history of that period

And ve must do the sarne President Nixon should confront

the masochistic self-flagellating hysteria vruch is generated so often

in the media tha~ it has become belicyable I rcally belie e the

President can brand it as a great deal of hogwash I 111ean a bit l110re

than the Whats Right With America speech I think the theme has

to be a little more profound and philosophicaJ a theme which will

stir middle America to a rejection of those who are bleating over a

sick An)erica

As always the President has led the way in this I think

his own remarks and speeches reflect precisely what I am arguing

If you read the transcript of the Kansas City Briefing you will see

that the inspiring nature of his talk is the kind of rhetoric which will

be required in 1972 But we have to go beyond that and support

bull the President 1n that theme So in a full-blovn campaign the

media effort the support effort of all the players the 3ctivities

of Cabinet and senior Vhite House Staff should reflect a positive

affirmation of the steady leadership that this President has brought

to the nation in a troubled time

This is our greatest asset and it should be hammered home

to those who concern theJnselves with Presidential iTnage-rnaking

We dont need to make an image or change an in1age we only ha ve to

project thoughtful y and intelligentl y that vhich we already have

VIe dont work for Richard Nixon because of revenue sharing and

reorganization We work for him because in each one of us he triggers

a n1echanism vhich says this man is the right man for Alnerica in

this particular tirne of history Those things are impressions They

work for us and I think we ought to get to work 111aking them work

for the electorate

THE WHITE HOUSE

WASHINGTON

June 25 1971

MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT

FROM PATRICK J BUCHANAN

SUBJECT The Odds Against Henry Jackson

That Senator Jackson is a candidate for his partys nomination -- there is no question That he can win it -- there appears little hope But Jackson has some very high cards to play which make him a strong contender for Vice President and a powerful force at the Democratic National Convention

JACKSONS STRENG THS

1 He has almost all the moderate and conservative columnists in the palm of his hand They like admire and respect Scoop Jackson A cursory review of the last three months finds supportive presidential talk about Jackson from colmnnists White both Alsops Kilpatrick Alexander Cuneo the Drummonds several times Gould Lincoln Chamberlain Wilson -- and on and on (Evans amp Novak are solicitous) They provide him with regular backpage support in most of the papers of the nation Even columnists who disagree with him (Wicker Viorst) respect him

2 A choice not an echo He is the single national Democrat who stands as a clear alternative against the crowd of Bayh Hughes Muskie 1t1cGovern Humphrey Kennedy crowd He emerges thus a visible rallying point for conservative Democrats at the 72 convention

3 Having hired the capable adviser Ben Wattenburg he is paralleling the Scammon-Wattenburg thesis His attacks on I environmental extremists II his denunciation of fellow Democrats for paying homage to the radical fringe 11 his focus on bread-and-butter issues the economy and jobs his call for Democrats to stay on the II Economic Is sue not the war his rough terminology which is being described in liberal circles as Agnewian -shyin all these instances Jackson is setting himself up against the trendy

bell-bottomed elite of the left wing of his party - - and with the working man center and right of his party On issues he is carving out his own independent sector within the Democratic Party

4 His super-hawkish anti-Soviet stand in the Middle East his fight for SST againsthe environmental extremists 11 for space and defense not only make him first choice of George Meany -- but guarantee a well-financed campaign from Aerospace from Defense Industries from the Jewish Community from Big Labor

5 He is well respected by his Senate colleagues A Drummond Poll of the Senate found that 18 percent of Democrats felt Jackson most qualified to be President ahead of Humphrey -- second only to Muskie (interestingly EMK got les s than anyone three percent or one vote of those polled )

6 He gets excellent pres s coverage

7 His hard-line on the Soviets and on strategic defense wins him publicity plaudits from the Republican Conservative Community While such is of little use in a run for the nomination it might be to any Democrat for his Vice President

8 On Vietnam he is down-playing his support of the President leaving it high enough to be visibly oppos ed to the rest of the pack but shading it a bit Domestically he pays occasional obeisance to such myths as the repres sian by the Administration Enough to keep his dues up - - but not nearly enough to close the sizable gap that exists between him and the liberal left of his party

9 He is the best vote-getter in the Senate -- winning his primary against a Galbraithian type by 85 percent - - and beating our candidate in the general by the same margin -- 85 percent of the vote in a northwestern industrial state This evidence of massive support across the party lines and throughout the ideological spectrum makes him especially attractive as a Vice Presidential nominee

10 His strength with press was evident in a poll of editors at ASNE who felt he would probably have nearly best chance of any Democrat of defeating RN

We hare got to use the Presidency to our greatest advantage

and that 111eans communicating to the people the stuff of the Presidency

It will require the President to address himself in the campaign to such

broad subjects as social stability belief in our future a visionof

whats ahead for America a sense of direction and purpose and

finall y a rejection of all those who are afraid of the future

Franklin Roosevelt was his own best P R man He convinced

the public in one of Anlericas darkest hours that fear (read

pessimism) vas the only thing to fear This one public posture has

enabled Rooseyelt to make hazy the rest of the history of that period

And ve must do the sarne President Nixon should confront

the masochistic self-flagellating hysteria vruch is generated so often

in the media tha~ it has become belicyable I rcally belie e the

President can brand it as a great deal of hogwash I 111ean a bit l110re

than the Whats Right With America speech I think the theme has

to be a little more profound and philosophicaJ a theme which will

stir middle America to a rejection of those who are bleating over a

sick An)erica

As always the President has led the way in this I think

his own remarks and speeches reflect precisely what I am arguing

If you read the transcript of the Kansas City Briefing you will see

that the inspiring nature of his talk is the kind of rhetoric which will

be required in 1972 But we have to go beyond that and support

bull the President 1n that theme So in a full-blovn campaign the

media effort the support effort of all the players the 3ctivities

of Cabinet and senior Vhite House Staff should reflect a positive

affirmation of the steady leadership that this President has brought

to the nation in a troubled time

This is our greatest asset and it should be hammered home

to those who concern theJnselves with Presidential iTnage-rnaking

We dont need to make an image or change an in1age we only ha ve to

project thoughtful y and intelligentl y that vhich we already have

VIe dont work for Richard Nixon because of revenue sharing and

reorganization We work for him because in each one of us he triggers

a n1echanism vhich says this man is the right man for Alnerica in

this particular tirne of history Those things are impressions They

work for us and I think we ought to get to work 111aking them work

WASHINGTON

June 25 1971

MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT

FROM PATRICK J BUCHANAN

SUBJECT The Odds Against Henry Jackson

That Senator Jackson is a candidate for his partys nomination -- there is no question That he can win it -- there appears little hope But Jackson has some very high cards to play which make him a strong contender for Vice President and a powerful force at the Democratic National Convention

JACKSONS STRENG THS

1 He has almost all the moderate and conservative columnists in the palm of his hand They like admire and respect Scoop Jackson A cursory review of the last three months finds supportive presidential talk about Jackson from colmnnists White both Alsops Kilpatrick Alexander Cuneo the Drummonds several times Gould Lincoln Chamberlain Wilson -- and on and on (Evans amp Novak are solicitous) They provide him with regular backpage support in most of the papers of the nation Even columnists who disagree with him (Wicker Viorst) respect him

2 A choice not an echo He is the single national Democrat who stands as a clear alternative against the crowd of Bayh Hughes Muskie 1t1cGovern Humphrey Kennedy crowd He emerges thus a visible rallying point for conservative Democrats at the 72 convention

3 Having hired the capable adviser Ben Wattenburg he is paralleling the Scammon-Wattenburg thesis His attacks on I environmental extremists II his denunciation of fellow Democrats for paying homage to the radical fringe 11 his focus on bread-and-butter issues the economy and jobs his call for Democrats to stay on the II Economic Is sue not the war his rough terminology which is being described in liberal circles as Agnewian -shyin all these instances Jackson is setting himself up against the trendy

bell-bottomed elite of the left wing of his party - - and with the working man center and right of his party On issues he is carving out his own independent sector within the Democratic Party

4 His super-hawkish anti-Soviet stand in the Middle East his fight for SST againsthe environmental extremists 11 for space and defense not only make him first choice of George Meany -- but guarantee a well-financed campaign from Aerospace from Defense Industries from the Jewish Community from Big Labor

5 He is well respected by his Senate colleagues A Drummond Poll of the Senate found that 18 percent of Democrats felt Jackson most qualified to be President ahead of Humphrey -- second only to Muskie (interestingly EMK got les s than anyone three percent or one vote of those polled )

6 He gets excellent pres s coverage

7 His hard-line on the Soviets and on strategic defense wins him publicity plaudits from the Republican Conservative Community While such is of little use in a run for the nomination it might be to any Democrat for his Vice President

8 On Vietnam he is down-playing his support of the President leaving it high enough to be visibly oppos ed to the rest of the pack but shading it a bit Domestically he pays occasional obeisance to such myths as the repres sian by the Administration Enough to keep his dues up - - but not nearly enough to close the sizable gap that exists between him and the liberal left of his party

9 He is the best vote-getter in the Senate -- winning his primary against a Galbraithian type by 85 percent - - and beating our candidate in the general by the same margin -- 85 percent of the vote in a northwestern industrial state This evidence of massive support across the party lines and throughout the ideological spectrum makes him especially attractive as a Vice Presidential nominee

10 His strength with press was evident in a poll of editors at ASNE who felt he would probably have nearly best chance of any Democrat of defeating RN

3

DEFICIENCES

1 He has allnost no recognition nationally This will force him to raise his profile rapidly to announce fairly early and probably to go the primary route - - and it is doubtful how well he can do against Democrats like Muskie

2 He is apparently an unexciting speaker who often bores even those audiences who agree with him One friend called him a IIBarry Goldwater without charisma TT

3 His nomination would sunder the Democratic Party And with left-wing strength greater at this convention than the past difficult to see how his nomination could be swallowed by a Demo cratic Convention (However if a Teddy Kennedy were nominated and Democratic conservatives sufficiently outraged - - a Kennedy-Jackson ticket might do for the party what the Kennedy-Johnson ticket did in 1960 bring it together again Where Johnson had the opposition of Labor and support of the South - shyJackson for Veep would have both the South and Labor in his corner)

4 He is sixty years old at least will be when the Democratic Convention is over This is his last chance to be on a national Democratic ticket after three decades in the Senate

JACKSON1S CHANCE

Having carved out an independent Churchillian sition if you will on the Soviets on the Middle East -- whence war is likely to corne if it comes - - Jackson is dependent upon circumstances If the Vietnam war is raging and there is calm between East and West - - Jackson has next to nothing going for him

But if Vietnam is removed as an issue and the Soviets become belligerent in Europe or the Middle East or the Mediterranean or anywhere then Jackson may very well appear the man for the times If national focus turns upon American weaknes s in the face of a rapidly arming Soviet Elnpire then Jackson could generate real support among Conservative Democrats Meany unions and the South -- and even conservative Republicans

4

No other Democrat seems today capable of making credible a hard-line policy against the USSR

But in such times Jackson will 1a ve a long shot for the top position and an inside track for the Vice Presidency

THE FLORIDA PRIMARY

Jackson cannot win in New Hampshire his lack of public recognition requires him to step out early if he is to have any hope at the Convention Thus he is forced it seems into the primaries Thus Florida -- according to two writers -- which is the same day as New Hampshire - - becomes crucial to Jackson

If Jackson wins in Florida and Muskie is defeated then the Muskie opening day becomes a flop Muskies candidacy is damaged the Jackson candidacy becomes interesting -- and the stage is set for a bitter division at the Convention

While we may be desirous ours elves of having a massive turnout for RN in Florida - - there may be something worth while for us in as sisting the efforts of Scoop Jackson in that State Something we ought to keep in mind

THE WHITE HOUSE

WASHINGTON

June 25 1971

MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT

FROM PATRICK J BUCHANAN

SUBJECT The Odds Against Henry Jackson

That Senator Jackson is a candidate for his partys nomination -- there is no question That he can win it -- there appears little hope But Jackson has some very high cards to play which make him a strong contender for Vice President and a powerful force at the Democratic National Convention

JACKSONS STRENG THS

1 He has almost all the moderate and conservative columnists in the palm of his hand They like admire and respect Scoop Jackson A cursory review of the last three months finds supportive presidential talk about Jackson from colmnnists White both Alsops Kilpatrick Alexander Cuneo the Drummonds several times Gould Lincoln Chamberlain Wilson -- and on and on (Evans amp Novak are solicitous) They provide him with regular backpage support in most of the papers of the nation Even columnists who disagree with him (Wicker Viorst) respect him

2 A choice not an echo He is the single national Democrat who stands as a clear alternative against the crowd of Bayh Hughes Muskie 1t1cGovern Humphrey Kennedy crowd He emerges thus a visible rallying point for conservative Democrats at the 72 convention

3 Having hired the capable adviser Ben Wattenburg he is paralleling the Scammon-Wattenburg thesis His attacks on I environmental extremists II his denunciation of fellow Democrats for paying homage to the radical fringe 11 his focus on bread-and-butter issues the economy and jobs his call for Democrats to stay on the II Economic Is sue not the war his rough terminology which is being described in liberal circles as Agnewian -shyin all these instances Jackson is setting himself up against the trendy

bell-bottomed elite of the left wing of his party - - and with the working man center and right of his party On issues he is carving out his own independent sector within the Democratic Party

4 His super-hawkish anti-Soviet stand in the Middle East his fight for SST againsthe environmental extremists 11 for space and defense not only make him first choice of George Meany -- but guarantee a well-financed campaign from Aerospace from Defense Industries from the Jewish Community from Big Labor

5 He is well respected by his Senate colleagues A Drummond Poll of the Senate found that 18 percent of Democrats felt Jackson most qualified to be President ahead of Humphrey -- second only to Muskie (interestingly EMK got les s than anyone three percent or one vote of those polled )

6 He gets excellent pres s coverage

7 His hard-line on the Soviets and on strategic defense wins him publicity plaudits from the Republican Conservative Community While such is of little use in a run for the nomination it might be to any Democrat for his Vice President

8 On Vietnam he is down-playing his support of the President leaving it high enough to be visibly oppos ed to the rest of the pack but shading it a bit Domestically he pays occasional obeisance to such myths as the repres sian by the Administration Enough to keep his dues up - - but not nearly enough to close the sizable gap that exists between him and the liberal left of his party

9 He is the best vote-getter in the Senate -- winning his primary against a Galbraithian type by 85 percent - - and beating our candidate in the general by the same margin -- 85 percent of the vote in a northwestern industrial state This evidence of massive support across the party lines and throughout the ideological spectrum makes him especially attractive as a Vice Presidential nominee

10 His strength with press was evident in a poll of editors at ASNE who felt he would probably have nearly best chance of any Democrat of defeating RN

3

DEFICIENCES

1 He has allnost no recognition nationally This will force him to raise his profile rapidly to announce fairly early and probably to go the primary route - - and it is doubtful how well he can do against Democrats like Muskie

2 He is apparently an unexciting speaker who often bores even those audiences who agree with him One friend called him a IIBarry Goldwater without charisma TT

3 His nomination would sunder the Democratic Party And with left-wing strength greater at this convention than the past difficult to see how his nomination could be swallowed by a Demo cratic Convention (However if a Teddy Kennedy were nominated and Democratic conservatives sufficiently outraged - - a Kennedy-Jackson ticket might do for the party what the Kennedy-Johnson ticket did in 1960 bring it together again Where Johnson had the opposition of Labor and support of the South - shyJackson for Veep would have both the South and Labor in his corner)

4 He is sixty years old at least will be when the Democratic Convention is over This is his last chance to be on a national Democratic ticket after three decades in the Senate

JACKSON1S CHANCE

Having carved out an independent Churchillian sition if you will on the Soviets on the Middle East -- whence war is likely to corne if it comes - - Jackson is dependent upon circumstances If the Vietnam war is raging and there is calm between East and West - - Jackson has next to nothing going for him

But if Vietnam is removed as an issue and the Soviets become belligerent in Europe or the Middle East or the Mediterranean or anywhere then Jackson may very well appear the man for the times If national focus turns upon American weaknes s in the face of a rapidly arming Soviet Elnpire then Jackson could generate real support among Conservative Democrats Meany unions and the South -- and even conservative Republicans

4

No other Democrat seems today capable of making credible a hard-line policy against the USSR

But in such times Jackson will 1a ve a long shot for the top position and an inside track for the Vice Presidency

THE FLORIDA PRIMARY

Jackson cannot win in New Hampshire his lack of public recognition requires him to step out early if he is to have any hope at the Convention Thus he is forced it seems into the primaries Thus Florida -- according to two writers -- which is the same day as New Hampshire - - becomes crucial to Jackson

If Jackson wins in Florida and Muskie is defeated then the Muskie opening day becomes a flop Muskies candidacy is damaged the Jackson candidacy becomes interesting -- and the stage is set for a bitter division at the Convention

While we may be desirous ours elves of having a massive turnout for RN in Florida - - there may be something worth while for us in as sisting the efforts of Scoop Jackson in that State Something we ought to keep in mind

DEFICIENCES

1 He has allnost no recognition nationally This will force him to raise his profile rapidly to announce fairly early and probably to go the primary route - - and it is doubtful how well he can do against Democrats like Muskie

2 He is apparently an unexciting speaker who often bores even those audiences who agree with him One friend called him a IIBarry Goldwater without charisma TT

3 His nomination would sunder the Democratic Party And with left-wing strength greater at this convention than the past difficult to see how his nomination could be swallowed by a Demo cratic Convention (However if a Teddy Kennedy were nominated and Democratic conservatives sufficiently outraged - - a Kennedy-Jackson ticket might do for the party what the Kennedy-Johnson ticket did in 1960 bring it together again Where Johnson had the opposition of Labor and support of the South - shyJackson for Veep would have both the South and Labor in his corner)

4 He is sixty years old at least will be when the Democratic Convention is over This is his last chance to be on a national Democratic ticket after three decades in the Senate

JACKSON1S CHANCE

Having carved out an independent Churchillian sition if you will on the Soviets on the Middle East -- whence war is likely to corne if it comes - - Jackson is dependent upon circumstances If the Vietnam war is raging and there is calm between East and West - - Jackson has next to nothing going for him

But if Vietnam is removed as an issue and the Soviets become belligerent in Europe or the Middle East or the Mediterranean or anywhere then Jackson may very well appear the man for the times If national focus turns upon American weaknes s in the face of a rapidly arming Soviet Elnpire then Jackson could generate real support among Conservative Democrats Meany unions and the South -- and even conservative Republicans

4

No other Democrat seems today capable of making credible a hard-line policy against the USSR

But in such times Jackson will 1a ve a long shot for the top position and an inside track for the Vice Presidency

THE FLORIDA PRIMARY

Jackson cannot win in New Hampshire his lack of public recognition requires him to step out early if he is to have any hope at the Convention Thus he is forced it seems into the primaries Thus Florida -- according to two writers -- which is the same day as New Hampshire - - becomes crucial to Jackson

If Jackson wins in Florida and Muskie is defeated then the Muskie opening day becomes a flop Muskies candidacy is damaged the Jackson candidacy becomes interesting -- and the stage is set for a bitter division at the Convention

While we may be desirous ours elves of having a massive turnout for RN in Florida - - there may be something worth while for us in as sisting the efforts of Scoop Jackson in that State Something we ought to keep in mind
