DO DON'T
Push what we want, stick to it Focus All our efforts on opposition Don't be diverted
Big tent Keep hitting idealogy Broaden Base
Depersonalize issues Demagogue - Drive away coalitions Work to attract Conservative Dems.
Stick to issues on which we can Flail away at everything in sight compete
Single minded, organize, good people. Talk big about taking over House in Results will follow. '96 "First be Best, Then be First"
Hold to good ideas - Credit will Down play a coopted idea ultimately come.
Anticipate next big wave, prepare for it Caught up in issues which have no real impact
FINALLY
• Emphasize our interest in all people
• Humanize economics (i.e. jobs for people) security
• GOP is party of anyone who wants a better life
• Create legislation geared to "A hand up, not a hand out"

RE: Southern Tier County Dinner Elmira, New York
*The event is a sell-out at approximately 650 people.
*They're looking for a report on the top issues in Washington, and the Republican outlook for 94.

SENATOR BOB DOLE
SOUTHERN TIER COUNTY GOP
APRIL 18, 1994
*THANK YOU.
*AS A POLITICIAN, YOU
ALWAYS HAVE TO BE A BIT
NERVOUS BEFORE YOU GIVE A
SPEECH, AS YOU KNOW THERE
ARE SOME PEOPLE IN THE
1
Page 11 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
AUDIENCE WHO DON'T TRUST
YOU, AND WHO THINK YOU'RE
JUST AFTER THEIR MONEY.
*THAT'S ESPECIALLY TRUE
JUST THREE DAYS AFTER TAX
FILING DAY. - - *LET ME JUST SAY THAT IT
COULD BE WORSE. IF MY WIFE,
ELIZABETH, WERE HERE, SHE'D
NOT ONLY ASK FOR YOUR
2
Page 12 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
MONEY--SHE'D ALSO ASK FOR
YOUR BLOOD.
*I KNOW A LOT OF YOU MIGHT
HAVE FELT THAT YOUR BLOOD
WAS THE ONLY THING THE
GOVERNMENT LEFT YOU AFTER
PAYING YOUR TAXES LAST WEEK.
*A LOT OF AMERICANS WHO
DIDN'T THINK THEY WERE 11 RICH 11
FOUND OUT THAT THEY WERE
3
Page 13 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
CLASSIFIED AS 11 RICH 11 UNDER THE
CLINTON TAX INCREASE.
*AND THAT INCLUDED A LOT
OF SUBCHAPTER S
BUSINESSES ... A LOT OF SMALL
BUSINESSMEN AND WOMEN ... A
LOT OF 11 MOM AND POP 11
OPERATIONS.
*THESE ARE THE TYPE OF
BUSINESSES THAT HAVE GROWN
4
Page 14 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
OVER THE YEARS, AND WHO HAVE
HELPED KEEP UNEMPLOYMENT
LOW... AND NOW, INSTEAD OF
USING MONEY TO HIRE A NEW
EMPLOYEE OR BUY SOME NEW
EQUIPMENT, THEY'LL BE USING IT
TO PAY SOME MORE TAXES.
*I WANTED TO PUT A LITTLE
NOTE ON THIS YEAR'S TAX .
FORMS ... A LITTLE NOTE THAT
5
Page 15 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
SAID 11 ALL REPUBLICANS IN THE
HOUSE AND SENATE VOTED
AGAINST THE CLINTON TAX
INCREASE. 11
*THAT LITTLE NOTE WOULD
HAVE BEEN A REMINDER TO
AMERICANS ... A REMINDER ABOUT
A FACT THAT ALL OF YOU HERE
KNOW: AND THAT'S THE FACT
THAT THERE IS A DIFFERENCE
6
Page 16 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
BETWEEN THE DEMOCRAT PARTY
AND THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.
*WHEN MANY AMERICANS GO
TO THE POLLS, THEY THINK THAT
IT DOESN'T MATTER WHO THEY
VOTE FOR. THEY BELIEVE ALL
POLITICIANS ARE ALIKE.
*THE MESSAGE THAT l'M
TAKING ACROSS AMERICA THIS
YEAR ... AND THE MESSAGE THAT
7
Page 17 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
SHOULD BE SPREAD BY ALL
REPUBLICANS ... IS THAT IT DOES
MATTER. IT DOES MAKE A
DIFFERENCE WHICH PARTY HAS -
CONTROL OF THE HOUSE, AND
WHICH PARTY HAS CONTROL OF
THE SENATE.
*IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE TO
THE SAFETY OF OUR STREETS. IT
MAKES A DIFFERENCE TO OUR
8
Page 18 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
NATIONAL SECURITY. AND YOU
BETTER BELIEVE IT MAKES A
DIFFERENCE TO YOUR TAX BILL.
*NO DOUBT ABOUT IT, IF
REPUBLICANS HAD CONTROL OF
THE HOUSE OR THE SENATE, YOU
CAN BET THAT THE CLINTON TAX
INCREASE WOULD HAVE BEEN
DEFEATED ... AND INSTEAD OF THE
CLINTON ECONOMIC PLAN OF
9
Page 19 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
MORE TAXES AND MORE
SPENDING, WE WOULD HAVE
TAKEN MEANINGFUL ACTION TO
REDUCE OUR DEFICIT.
*LET ME GIVE YOU ANOTHER
EXAMPLE--THE BALANCED
BUDGET AMENDMENT.
*IT LOST BY JUST A HANDFUL
OF VOTES IN THE HOUSE AND
SENATE LAST MONTH.
10
Page 20 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
*IF THERE WERE REPUBLICAN
MAJORITIES IN THE HOUSE AND
SENATE, THE VOTE WOULD HAVE
BEEN DIFFERENT.
*POLLS SAY THAT AN
OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF
AMERICANS SUPPORT THE LINE-- - ITEM VETO.
*THE DEMOCRAT MAJORITIES
THAT HAVE RULED CONGRESS
11
Page 21 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
FOR 40 STRAIGHT YEARS IN THE
HOUSE AND 32 OF 40 YEARS IN
THE SENATE, HAVEN'T RAISED A
FINGER TO GET IT PASSED.
*GIVE REPUBLICANS A
MAJORITY AND A LINE-ITEM VETO
WOULD MOVE TO THE TOP OF
THE AGENDA---AS WOULD A
CAPITAL GAINS TAX CUT, TO
12
Page 22 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
ENCOURAGE ECONOMIC GROWTH
AND JOB CREATION.
*I UNDERSTAND THERE ARE
QUITE A FEW DOCTORS HERE
THIS EVENING ... AND THAT'S A
TREND I HAVE SEEN
THROUGHOUT THIS YEAR ... AT ALL
MY TOWN MEETINGS ... AT NEARLY
ALL THE POLITICAL EVENTS I
ATTEND, THERE ARE ALWAYS
13
Page 23 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
QUITE A FEW 11 DOCTORS IN THE
HOUSE. 11
*AND THEY'RE COMING OUT
NOT BECAUSE THEY'RE
CONCERNED ABOUT WHAT
HEALTH CARE REFORM WILL DO
TO THEM ... THEY'RE CONCERNED
ABOUT WHAT IT WILL DO TO
THEIR PATIENTS. --
14
Page 24 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
*AND THEY'RE CONCERNED
ABOUT WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO
THEIR PATIENTS UNDER THE
CLINTON PLAN, WHICH TURNS
HEALTH CARE ENTIRELY OVER TO
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.t-
*CAN YOU IMAGINE WHAT
HEALTH CARE WILL BE LIKE IF IT
HAD THE COMPASSION OF
INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE,
15
Page 25 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
AND THE EFFICIENCY OF THE
POST OFFICE?
*DON'T GET ME WRONG. OUR
HEALTH CARE SYSTEM ISN'T
PERFECT. IT IS BUREAUCRATIC.
IT IS EXPENSIVE. AND THERE ARE
MANY, MANY, AMERICANS WHO
HAVE A SICK CHILD, OR A SICK
PARENT, AND WHO NEED HELP.
16
Page 26 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
*WE CAN HELP THEM, AND WE
CAN DO IT WITHOUT TURNING
WHAT, DESPITE ITS PROBLEMS, IS
THE BEST HEALTH CARE SYSTEM
IN THE WORLD UPSIDE DOWN.
*THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT
THE PRESIDENT'S PLAN--WITH ITS
MANDATES AND ITS REGIONAL
ALLIANCES, IS ESSENTIALLY
DEAD.,
17
Page 27 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
*THE BAD NEWS, HOWEVER,IS
THAT THERE ARE STILL QUITE A
FEW PLANS OUT THERE WHICH
ARE JUST AS BAD--OR WORSE.
*NOT ONE OF THESE PLANS,
HOWEVER--BE THEY REPUBLICAN
OR DEMOCRAT--HAS THE VOTES
TO PASS THE HOUSE OR THE
SENATE.
*SO WE STILL HAVE SOME
18
Page 28 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
WORK TO DO. REPUBLICANS MET
THIS WEEKEND IN PHILADELPHIA,
AND WE TALKED AGAIN ABOUT
THE ISSUES WHERE WE'RE
UNITED.
*AND IT SEEMS TO ME THAT
WE COULD PUT TOGETHER
LEGISLATION THAT MAKES THE
CHANGES WHICH HAVE WIDE BI-
PARTISAN AGREEMENT.
19
Page 29 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
*WE CAN HELP THOSE WHO
CAN'T AFFORD INSURANCE
THROUGH CHANGES IN THE TAX
SYSTEM, AND THROUGH
VOUCHERS.
*WE CAN HELP THOSE WHO
CAN'T GET INSURANCE, BY
PREVENTING COMPANIES FROM
REFUSING COVERAGE TO THOSE
WITH PRE-EXISTING CONDITIONS.
20
Page 30 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
*AND WE CAN HELP THOSE
WHO CAN'T KEEP INSURANCE, BY
MAKING HEALTH INSURANCE
PORTABLE, SO THAT IT MOVES
WITH YOU WHEN YOU CHANGE
YOUR JOB OR LOSE YOUR JOB.
*SO ON TAXES AND SPENDING,
AND ON HEALTH CARE, THERE IS
A BIG, BIG DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
WHAT A DEMOCRAT CONGRESS
21
Page 31 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
WILL GIVE YOU AND WHAT A
REPUBLICAN CONGRESS WILL
GIVE YOU.
*AND THERE'S ALSO A BIG
DIFFERENCE WHEN IT COMES TO
OUR NATIONAL SECURITY.
*BACK IN THE 1992 ELECTION,
NATIONAL SECURITY WASN'T
EVEN A BLIP ON THE RADAR
SCREEN. CANDIDATE CLINTON
22
Page 32 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
DIDN'T SAY MORE THAN A FEW
WORDS ABOUT NATIONAL
SECURITY, BECAUSE HE HAD
ABSOLUTELY NO EXPERIENCE ON
THE ISSUE.
*WELL, NOW THAT CANDIDATE
CLINTON HAS BECOME
PRESIDENT CLINTON, HE'S FOUND
OUT THAT HE CAN'T CONTROL
EVENTS AROUND THE
23
Page 33 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
WORLD ... AND AMERICANS HAVE
DISCOVERED THAT FOREIGN
POLICY IS IMPORTANT... AND THAT = - A STRONG DEFENSE IS - IMPORTANT.
*NOW, l'M ONE WHO HAS
ALWAYS BELIEVED THAT POLITICS
STOPS AT THE WATER'S
EDGE ... AND THAT WHEN IT
COMES TO FOREIGN POLICY, IT'S
24
Page 34 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
IMPORTANT TO SUPPORT OUR
PRESIDENT--REGARDLESS IF HE'S
A DEMOCRAT OR A REPUBLICAN.
*AND I HAVE SUPPORTED
PRESIDENT CLINTON WHEN IT
COMES TO SOMALIA, AND
RUSSIAN RECONSTRUCTION ... AND l'VE TRIED TO SUPPORT HIS
BOSNIAN POLICY---BUT THE
PROBLEM IS THAT HE DOESN'T
25
Page 35 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
HAVE A POLICY... IT CHANGES DAY
BY DAY. AND WHILE IT CHANGES,
MEN, WOMEN, AND CHILDREN
ARE BEING SLAUGHTERED.
*I DO HAVE ONE
FUNDAMENTAL DIFFERENCE WITH
PRESIDENT CLINTON WHEN IT
COMES TO FOREIGN POLICY--AND
THAT'S THE FACT THAT I PREFER
26
Page 36 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
AMERICAN LEADERSHIP OVER
LEADERSHIP BY ANOTHER
COUNTRY OR BY BOUTROS
BOUTROS GHALI.
*AND I CAN GUARANTEE YOU
/ THAT A REPUBLICAN MAJORITY
CONGRESS IS A CONGRESS THAT
WON'T ABDICATE AMERICAN
LEADERSHIP.
27
Page 37 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
*DON'T GET ME WRONG. l'VE
NEVER CLAIMED THAT
REPUBLICANS ARE PERFECT.
WE'VE MADE SOME MISTAKES IN
THE PAST. AND WE NEED TO DO
A BETTER JOB AT OPENING OUR
PARTY'S DOORS TO ALL
AMERICANS.
*BUT I DO BELIEVE WE ARE
THE PARTY OF IDEAS. WE ARE
28
Page 38 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
THE PARTY OF LESS TAXES, LESS
SPENDING, LESS GOVERNMENT,
AND A STRONG AMERICA.
*I KNOW THAT THE
DEMOCRATS SAY OTHERWISE.
PRESIDENT CLINTON HIT THE
PODIUM A FEW WEEKS BACK AND
SAID WE WERE JUST THE PARTY
OF 11 NO, NO, N0.11 AND HE
THINKS THE BLAME FOR THE
29
Page 39 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
WHITEWATER MESS SHOULD
ALSO GO TO REPUBLICANS.
*HE'S WRONG ON BOTH
COUNTS.
*WE ARE NOT THE PARTY OF
11 NO, NO. N0.11 TIME AND AGAIN,
WHEN REPUBLICANS BELIEVED
PRESIDENT CLINTON WAS
MOVING AMERICA IN THE RIGHT
DIRECTION, WE HAVE HELPED.
30
Page 40 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
*BUT YES, WHEN WE BELIEVE
PRESIDENT CLINTON IS MOVING
AMERICA IN WHAT WE BELIEVE IS
THE WRONG DIRECTION, THEN IT
WAS AND IS OUR DUTY TO TRY TO
CHANGE THAT DIRECTION.
*AND THERE'S NOTHING
WRONG WITH SAYING 11 N011 FROM
TIME TO TIME--IF WE ARE SAYING
11 N011 TO MORE TAXES, MORE
31
Page 41 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
SPENDING, AND MORE
REGULATION.
*AND WHEN IT COMES TO
WHITEWATER, REPUBLICANS ARE
11 11 11 11 SAYING YES. -- YES TO GIVING
THE PUBLIC THE FACTS ... YES TO
FULL DISCLOSURE.
*THAT'S ALL l'VE BEEN SAYING
SINCE THE START OF THIS MESS.
AND THAT'S ALL THAT AL
32
Page 42 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
D'AMATO HAS BEEN SAYING.
*WE HAVEN'T ACCUSED THE
PRESIDENT OR THE FIRST LADY
OF DOING ANYTHING
WRONG ... ALL WE HAVE SAID IS
THAT EVENTUALLY ALL THE
FACTS WILL COME OUT, AND THE
SOONER THE BETTER, SO WE CAN
MOVE ON AND TACKLE THE
33
Page 43 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
ISSUES THAT MATTER TO
AMERICANS.
*NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS
WITH WHITEWATER,
REPUBLICANS ARE NOT GOING
TO GET A MAJORITY UNLESS WE
HAVE GOOD CANDIDATES WITH GOOD----# IDEAS AND STRONG ORGANIZATIONS--AND UNLESS
WE CONVINCE THE AMERICAN
34
Page 44 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu
PEOPLE THAT IT DOES MATTER
WHICH PARTY HAS THE
MAJORITY.

SUPPORTING REPUBLICAN
CANDIDATES.

TODAY THE BOSNIAN CITY OF GORAZDE IS ON THE VERGE OF COLLAPSE AND THE UNITED STATES, TOGETHER WITH NATO, IS ON THE VERGE OF LOSING ITS CREDIBILITY IN WORLD AFFAIRS. THE EVENTS OF THIS PAST WEEKEND ARE EVIDENCE THAT THE UNITED STATES HAS ABDICATED THE LEADERSHIP ROLE IT ASSUMED IN FEBRUARY WHEN SARAJEVO WAS RESCUED. SINCE THEN, WE HAVE TURNED OVER THE 1
Page 46 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu REINS TO THE UNITED NATIONS -- WHICH HAS ALREADY LOST ALL CREDIBILITY IN THE FORMER YUGOSLAVIA. WITH MORE THAN 300 PEOPLE KILLED IN GORAZDE, 1,100 WOUNDED, 30,000 PEOPLE DISPLACED FROM THEIR HOMES, AND BOSNIAN SERB FORCES SHELLING THE CITY'S WATER POWER PLANT AND HOSPITAL, THE SITUATION IN GORAZDE IS A HUMANITARIAN CATASTROPHE. YET, THE U.N.'S RESPONSE HAS 2
Page 47 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu BEEN TO ISSUE MORE STATEMENTS AND TO PULL OUT U.N. PEACEKEEPING FORCES. MEANWHILE, PRESIDENT CLINTON HAS TAKEN THE POSITION THAT THE UNITED STATES AND NATO CANNOT TAKE ACTION UNLESS AUTHORIZED BY THE UNITED NATIONS. I REJECT THAT VIEW. THE UNITED STATES DOES NOT HAVE TO WAIT ON THE UNITED NATIONS TO ESTABLISH U.S. POLICY TOWARD BOSNIA. THE U.N. PEACEKEEPING RECORD 3
Page 48 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu IN THE FORMER YUGOSLAVIA IS ONE MARKED BY FAILURE. THIS YEAR, THE UNITED STATES WILL SPEND AT LEAST $300 MILLION TO FUND UNPROFOR IN THE FORMER YUGOSLAVIA, BUT WE ARE NOT GETTING THE PEACEKEEPING WE ARE PAYING FOR. THE FACT IS THAT UNPROFOR HAS NOT CARRIED OUT RESOLUTIONS PASSED BY THE U.N. SECURITY COUNCIL, SUCH AS RESOLUTION 836 WHICH AUTHORIZES THE USE OF FORCE TO PROTECT 11 SAFE 4
Page 49 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu HAVENS" SUCH AS GORAZDE. INSTEAD OF GETTING PROTECTION OF SO-CALLED SAFE HAVENS IN BOSNIA, THE U.S. TAXPAYERS HAVE GOTTEN BIG BLUFFS FOR THE BUCK. IT'S NO WONDER THE SERBS HAVE NOW CALLED THE U.N.'S BLUFF. WE HAVE REACHED THE POINT WHERE WE MUST CONSIDER WHETHER FURTHER FUNDING OF UNPROFOR CAN BE JUSTIFIED -- ESPECIALLY SINCE THE PRESENCE OF UNPROFOR TROOPS ARE CITED 5
Page 50 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu BY OUR ALLIES AS A KEY OBSTACLE TO LIFTING THE ARMS EMBARGO AGAINST THE BOSNIANS. AND SO SERIOUS QUESTIONS MUST BE ASKED WHEN UNPROFOR'S MANDATE EXPIRES ON THE 30TH OF APRIL; EXPANSION OF UNPROFOR AT THIS TIME MAY BE THE WORST OPTION FOR THE PROTECTION OF BOSNIANS. IF THE UNITED NATIONS IS UNWILLING TO TAKE MEASURES WITH NATO TO PROTECT BOSNIAN ENCLAVES IT 6
Page 51 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu HAS COMMITTED TO PROTECT, UNPROFOR FORCES SHOULD BE WITHDRAWN AND THE BOSNIAN ARMY SHOULD BE ARMED. THEREFORE, I CALL UPON THE PRESIDENT TO RESUME A SERIOUS EFFORT TO LIFT THE ARMS EMBARGO AGAINST THE BOSNIAN GOVERNMENT. PRESIDENT CLINTON INDICATED TODAY THAT HE STILL FAVORS THE LIFTING OF THE ARMS EMBARGO AGAINST THE BOSNIANS. HOWEVER, THIS CANNOT AND WILL NOT OCCUR 7
Page 52 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu WITHOUT U.S. LEADERSHIP. THE PRESIDENT SHOULD MAKE IT CLEAR THAT THE UNITED STATES IS READY TO AND WILL LIFT THE EMBARGO UNILATERALLY IF OUR ALLIES AND OTHER MEMBERS OF THE U.N. SECURITY COUNCIL REFUSE TO GO ALONG. UNLIKE THE EMBARGO AGAINST IRAQ, THIS ARMS EMBARGO VIOLATES THE U.N. CHARTER AND BOSNIA'S RIGHT TO SELF-DEFENSE. LIFTING THE ARMS EMBARGO MAY NOT HELP THE PEOPLE OF GORAZDE 8
Page 53 of 81 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu WHO ARE ON THE BRINK OF DEATH, BUT IT MAY SAVE OTHER BOSNIANS FROM THE DANGERS OF U.N. INDECISION AND APPEASEMENT.

MEMORANDUM
TO: SENATOR DOLE FROM: SUZANNE HELLMANN
RE: NEW YORK POLITICAL BRIEFING
ISSUES o Elmira, NY is an industrial city. The largest employers are Hardinge Brothers, which makes precision machines, and a Toshiba Display Devices facility. Rep. Amo Houghton represents this area -- the 31st Congressional District. o According to John O'Mara, the issues of greatest concern to those attending the events in Elmira are health care and Whitewater. There will be many physicians in attendance. o Immigration -- Gov. Cuomo is seeking to add New York to the list of States who have filed lawsuits against the federal government seeking payment for past services provided to undocumented immigrants under a failed immigration policy. Undocumented immigrants apparently cost NY $970 million last year. o Gambling -- becoming more and more popular in States -- NY is also considering approval of casino and riverboat gambling. This would require an amendment to the NY constitution. Gov. Cuomo opposed gambling in NY outside of the already legalized gambling on the upstate Indian reservations. Amendment could be before voters by 11/95.

U.S. SENATE RACE
Filing: July 14 Primary: September 13
There is no outstanding Republican candidate to run against Moynihan. In a poll conducted from 4/9 to 4/11, Sen. Moynihan crushed his possible Democrat opponent Al Sharpton:
DEM PRIMARY FAV/UNFAV NAME ID Moynihan 77% 76%/ 5% 100% Sharpton 11 19 / 49 88% (see attached for more of poll)
The National Republican Senatorial Committee says this is their one big hole in Senate races this year. It's such an uphill climb against Moynihan that they would rather focus their attention on the more competitive races.

GUBERNATORIAL RACE
Filing: July 14 Primary: September 13
Governor Cuomo' s unfavorable numbers are high and his re- elects are low. Yet, because the Republicans have been so divided over a candidate, Gov. Cuomo is likely to benefit from the GOP's disarray. Add to this the Libertarian candidacy of radio shock jock Howard Stern and it becomes even more interesting. From a "hack poll" done by Prodigy computer services subscribers, 51% preferred Stern, 21% Cuomo, and 22% the GOP nominee. Subscribers are "overwhelmingly" Republican and many political experts believe that Stern would draw voters from the right. Stern does have the highest unfavorable rating of all the candidates, however, most being under the impression that this is a publicity stunt. Stern's reasons for running? -- "to reinstate the death penalty, improve the collection of highway tolls ... and ensure that road construction crews work only at night."
Among Republicans, Rep. Green is considered to be the strongest contender. He announced his candidacy referring to himself as the "Unity candidate" meaning that he is more moderate. A poll conducted 3/23-30 showed Cuomo with 36% and Green with 27% in a head-to-head.
As you know, Senator D 'Amato has handpicked State Senator George Pataki as the GOP candidate and has handed over his $400,000 war chest initially established to benefit D'Amato in his own possible run for Governor. D'Amato, probably hoping to gain the support of the Conservative Party in the State, recommended a Pataki-London ticket. However, Conservative Party Chair Michael Long "said he doubted a Pataki-London ticket could be arranged."
Possible GOP candidates include: Bill Green, Ex-Rep. George Pataki, State Senator Richard Rosenbaum, ex-NY Party Chair Evan Galbraith, Ex-Ambassador to France Herb London, NYU Dean Patrick Barrett, Businessman

"It was grim and bare it yesterday" for the Stern camp after the poll showed Stern with the highest unfavorable rating of all the candidates. The "bare it part" was provided by a female stripper "who braved the a chilly rain to expose her breasts on the steps of the Capitol." Misty Costa said Stern "would fight for topless rights": "I'm fighting for the right to bare my t--s if I want to." Costa said she wasn't hired by Stern, who is said to be on vacation (Finnegan/Lombardi, N.Y. DAILY NEWS, 4/7). Infinity Broadcasting Corp, which employs Stern, "is still trying to determine exactly how the equal-time rules will apply" now that Stern is a candidate. The FEC has indicated that "opposing candidates must be allowed an equal amount of airtime" on Stern's NY affiliates after the 9/13 primary. "But that may change once the lawyers confer on his unusual situation" (N.Y. NEWSDAY, 4/6).

NEWS U.S. SENATOR FOR KANSAS FROM: SENATE REPUBLICAN LEADER
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Clarkson Hine Monday, April 18, 1994 (202) 224-5358 LIFT BOSNIA ARMS EMBARGO U.S. SHOULD LEAD EFFORT TO LIFT EMBARGO, ACT ALONE IF ALLIES WON'T FOLLOW: IS FURTHER FUNDING OF U.N. PEACEKEEPING FORCE JUSTIFIED? TAXPAYERS GETTING BIG U.N. BLUFFS FOR THE BUCK
ELMIRA, NEW YORK -- The following are .remarks of Senate Republican Leader Bob Dole prepared for delivery tonight at the Souther Tier County Republican Dinner in Elmira, New York:
Today the Bosnian city of Gorazde is on the verge of collapse and the United States, together with NATO, is on the verge of losing its credibility in world affairs. The events of this past weekend are evidence that the United States has abdicated the leadership role it assumed in February when Sarajevo was rescued. Since then, we have turned over the reins to the United Nations -- which has already lost all credibility in the former Yugoslavia. Gorazde: A Humanitarian Catastrophe With more than 300 people killed in Gorazde, 1,100 wounded, 30,000 people displaced from their homes, and Bosnian Serb forces shelling the city's water power plant and hospital, the situation in Gorazde is a humanitarian catastrophe. Yet, the U.N.'s response has been to issue more statements and to pull out U.N. peacekeeping forces. Meanwhile, President Clinton has taken the position that the United States and NATO cannot take action unless authorized by the United Nations. I reject that 'view. The United States does not have to wait on the United Nations to establish U.S. policy toward Bosnia. Not Getting Peacekeeping We Pay For The U.N. peacekeeping record in the former Yugoslavia is one marked by failure. This year, the United States will spend at least $3'00 million to fund UNPROFOR in the former Yugoslavia, but we are not getting the peacekeeping we are paying for. The fact is that UNPROFOR has not carried out resolutions passed by the U.N. Security Council, such as Resolution 836 which authorizes the use of force to protect "safe havens" such as Gorazde. Instead of getting protection of so-called safe havens in Bosnia, the U.S. taxpayers have gotten big bluffs for the buck. It's no wonder the Serbs have now called the U.N.'s bluff. Serious Questions About U.N. Funding We have reached the point where we must consider whether further funding of UNPROFOR can be justified -- especially since the presence of UNPROFOR troops are cited by our allies as a key obstacle to lifting the arms embargo against the Bosnians. And so serious questions must be asked when UNPROFOR's mandate expires on the 30th of April; expansion of UNPROFOR at this time may be the worst option for the protection of Bosnians. If the United Nations is unwilling to protect Bosnian enclaves it has to take measures with NATO Page 80 of 81 committed to protect, UNPROFOR forces should be withdrawn and the Bosnian Army should be armed. 11-mo....-; ro:.n T.o;:,_nori=:hi n N'PPnPO TO T.i ft F.JTibaraO are evi ence that tne United States has abdicated the leadership role it assumed in February This document iswhen from the Sarajevocollections at the Dolewas Archives, rescued.

If the United Nations is unwilling to take measures with NATO to protect Bosnian enclaves it has committed to protect, UNPROFOR forces should be withdrawn and the Bosnian Army should be armed. American Leadership Needed to Lift Embargo Therefore, I call upon the President to resume a serious effort to lift the arms embargo against the Bosnian government. President Clinton indicated today that he still favors the lifting of the arms embargo against the Bosnians. However, this cannot and will not occur without U.S. leadership. The President should make it_ clear that the United States is ready to and will lift the embargo unilaterally if our allies and other members of the U.N. Security Council refuse to go along. Unlike the embargo against Iraq, this arms embargo violates the U.N. Charter and Bosnia's right to self- defense. Lifting the arms embargo may not help the people of Gorazde who are on the brink of death, but it may save other Bosnians from the dangers of U.N. indecision and appeasement.
