FORD TALK A GROUP OF OHIO BROADCASTERS AT A WHITE HOUSE BRIEFING THAT HE IS AN UNDERDOG TO RONALD REAGAN IN CALIFORNIA. BUT HE REPEATED HIS PREDICTED FIRST BALLOT NOMINATION AT THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION. THE PRESIDENT SAID THAT OHIO'S 97 REPUBLICAN DELEGATES ARE EXTREMELY SIGNIFICANT BECAUSE THEY ARE DIVIDED ACCORDING TO THE POPULAR VOTE. IN CALIFORNIA'S REPUBLICAN PRIMARY, THE WINNER TAKES ALL. ''WE FEEL THAT WITH THE MOMENTUM WE HAVE GOING THAT WE CAN GET A SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF THE OHIO DELEGATES IN PARTIAL OFFSET OF THE ANTICIPATED SITUATION IN CALIFORNIA. THAT DOESN'T MEAN WE'RE GOING TO GIVE UP IN CALIFORNIA. QUITE THE OPPOSITE,'' HE SAID. ''MY WIFE BETTY WOULDN'T BE GOING TO CALIFORNIA IF WE WERE. BUT WE'RE AN UNDERDOG IN CALIFORNIA. WE RECOGNIZE IT AND SO IT IS VITALLY IMPORTANT THAT WE MAXIMIZE OUR VOTE IN OHIO AS WELL AS IN NEW JERSEY,'' HE ADDED. THE PRESIDENT WAS ASKED ABOUT VICE PRESIDENT NELSON'S ROCKEFELLER'S PREDICTION THAT FORD WOULD WIN ABOUT 20 DELEGATES FEWER THAN NEEDED TO NOMINATE HIM ON THE FIRST BALLOT. HE REPLIED: ''I WOULD AGREE MORE OR LESS WITH THE OBSERVATIONS BY THE VICE PRESIDENT AND BY MOST ANALYSTS THAT WE WILL GO INTO THE CONVENTION WITH NEARLY ENOUGH COMMITTED VOTES. ••I THINK WE CAN MAKE SOME HEADWAY WITH THE NON-COMMITTED VOTES BETWEEN NOW AND THEN AND THEREFORE, I THINK WE.LL HAVE A FIRST BALLOT VICTORY IN KANSAS CITY,'' HE SAID. FORD HAS DESCRIBED SOME OF REAGAN'S POSITIONS AS IRRESPONSIBLE. BUT THE PRESIDENT SAID EVEN THOSE STANDS HAVE NOT LED HIM TO RULE REAGAN OUT AS A POSSIBLE VICE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE. ''I DON'T EXCLUDE ANY REPUBLICAN AS A POTENTIAL CANDIDATE FOR VICE PRESIDENT ,'' HE SAID. ''I CERTAINLY WOULD TAKE SUCH COMMENTS INTO CONSIDERATION IN THE ANALYSIS OF WHETHER AN INDIVIDUAL WOULD BE ON THE TICKET WITH ME. BUT I DON'T WANT THAT TO INDICATE THAT I'M PRECLUDING HIM AT THIS TIME BECAUSE I'M NOT EXCLUDING ANYBODY.'' 06-04-76 17:18ED~ Tape: 6/8/76 Air•: 6/9/76 #202-76 Tape: 6/8/76 Air: 6/9/76 l/!202-76 RONA: NEWS: 3 RONA: NEWS: 4 vice-chairman David Gerten ••• run tor two hours and five Liza Minnelli and her Jack Haley,Jr minutes ••• will only be seen ••• and Johnny and Joanna Carson overseas ••• because ••• who arrived after the dinner Altman•s contract reserves the but in time to wish her well ••• right to make the final edit ot With that kind of filmland tolk the film tor u.s. release. in attendance ••• who knows ••• Altman•s new version is said to ·the wags may be right when they run for one hour and 58 minutes ••• suggest that First Mama ought and according to those who've seen to run tor the Oval Office . the version ••• no one -- least of herself'. all Paul -- will miss the extra hour.
