l'iEMORANDUM FORI

FROl-t1 GORDON STRJ)...CIlAN SUBJECTs George 'O'1allace

Facts The attached Wallace chart indicatesl

1) Wallace is on the ballots of Kansas, Kentucky, New Jersey and Wisconsin, 2) Wallace is legally precluded from appearing on the ballots of Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Indiana, Maryland, M.aine, Michigan, Nebraska, Oregon, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia,

3) Wallace can obtain ballot position in the other thirty-five states by receiving the American Party nomi­ nation at their Convention in Louisville, Kentucky, August 3-5 and by petitioning.

Question This memorandum attempts a qualitative analysis of Wallace, emphasizing the amount of effort required to get on ballots, whether these efforts are underway and if so by whom, and finally a subjective guess of what he will do.

C,onclusion 'lbere is no national effort to get Wallace on the ballots. If he deoided to run, it would be easy, even in Illinois, Texas, New York and California. I do not think he will run, he will have had his ego trip in Miami Beach and deep down prefers the President over front-runner MoGovern. - 2 -

Disoussion- The absence of a national effort and general lack of interest is indicated by aeftral developments. Contact with eleotion officials, reporters, and right wing groups in all states confirm there is no national direction from Wallace. In the four .tate. where Wallaee appeu. on tho ballot, wlooal aealot.- enqineered the addition of his name. In some state. Wallaos has instruoted his followers to work within the Party for del89ates. Texas 1s the meet important example. Wallace recently let ballot deadline. pass in Georg-ia, Hawaii, and Maine", The regtenal coordi­ nators responsible for obtain1n9 ballot position are making little or no .ffort. In Idaho, the AlP held a Convention and the party chairman resigned, reportedly out of disinter.st. Bowever, were Wallace to decide to run, the effort required in cruoial states could be B)unted quickly with varying' degrees of difficulty. In Texas, Wallace direoCed bis supporters to work in the Democratic primary. To get the American Party on the Texu ballot, 22,000 signatures muat be obtained. The deadli. waa July 2, hut the AMrioan Party filed suit to extend the deadline until September 1. The American Party nominated Wallace at it. JWle 10 eon..ntion and is aot.ively seeking' the 22,000 signatures. A aubetantia.l effort will be required because none of the 22,000 can ha¥8 voted in the Demooratic primary. 1n Uew York, the Courage Party eWallace's vehtcle in '68) had nnr people froll 40 counties at a meeting to push for 20,000 signatures needed by Auquat ll. In Illinois, 25,000 .1gnatura. would have to be obtained between JuIy 31 and AU

The decision to run on a third party ticket is Wallace's.

H. R. HALDEMAN

FROM. GORDON STRACHAN SUBJECT. Convention I

I reviewed your notes on the Convention with Chapin by telephone. He had only one question. On Page 15 he suggested Billy Graham as the Clergyman for the Benediction. Chapin wonders whether he should approach Graham now or whether the President or you will do it when the President meets with Graham in California.

Chapin to approach Graham now. Chapin -not to approach Graham now. Other.

HIGH PRIORITY

MElv10RANDUlvf FOR: H. R. HALDEMAN

FROM: DWIGHT L. CHAPIN

SUBJECT: Convention

Aside from the more formal participants in the Convention such as the keynoter, temporary chairman, etc., there are l1iany others who are only part of the overall show. These are t~'e types \\'ho give the flag salute, sing the anthems, offer the prayers, benedictions and so on.

In the attached document I have circled the events and personalities I v!ant you to note. There are hours of discussion behind almost each choice. However, there is no reason to bother you with all the arguments.

We are launching off and trying to obtain the talent as indicated. Undoubtedly we will never get everyone and there will be sibstitutions. The attached is our first choice (you may notice some holes we are still trying to fill) and we are using it as a starter.

If you see any problems, please indicate. \\'hat we want is approval to lDove off todC'_ y and start locking the talent up.

Dick i\100rc, Gordon and I (Carruthers, I think, would agree) want to [~() after tlle talent. l\lost of our choices in term.s of program nppcarances will work out, \'[e majC end up \vith a couple of odd-ball awkward n1.1stalces. If so, we will finesse then1 and no one will ever kno'W the difference except us and the celebrity involved.

(From Chapin and Moore)

Approve attached phn in terms of talent.

Approv", _

Mlli"40RAlmUM PORI H. R. HALDEMAN FROMs GORDON STRACHAN SUBJECT, Discussion with Tom .Benham

Discussion with Tom Benham developed several interesting points. 1) 1972 will not be a Johnson-Goldwater re-run because there are too many Democrats and too few Republicans. However, if Benham were asked to pick a percentage it would be 55-45'. 2) The President will receive substantial labor votes because all tile labor surveys that ORC has conducted indi­ cates that the labor rank and file likes the President. The labor leaders have separated themselves from their followers, 3) It would be very helpful to have some Democrats, hopefully Congressmen and Senators, denounoe the Democratio ticket. This was one of the MOst effective things against Goldwater in 1964, 4) The President should campaign on peaoe with strong emphasis on ~~e Peking and Moscow trips, a typical line would be ·Peace for our Children",

5) To respond to ~le Democratic attaaks on inflation, Bewlam suggests we push the line "United States Inflation Rate Lowest in the World",

6) In choosing an enemy to run against, Benham believes that Conqres8 and McGovern lnake excellent targets. He does not feel that we should run against Ford Motor Co. as being - 2 ­

unable t.o comply with pollution standards.. Benham believes this in spite of the fact that environment and pollution control are inoreuing-ly popular with the public. The reason Benham 40es not believe we should run against Ford is that t:he veneral public will sympathize with Pord when they go to their local Ford dealer and cannot buy a car, 7) Instead of attacking McGovern as a radical (which only bWlin••ean on W-.J.I Street believe) McGovern should be paint.ed .. naive, amateur, and too simple. He has 9'0818 but oan't reach th... Ncaae he haen' t thouqht through his proposals. An excellent line to push is tbat of his lupporters that COftg-xe•• will restrain McGovern'. nutty ideas so people needn't worry about them. This l'squires Conqras. to assume a laadersbip role which the public does not feel Congress is capable of doing. 8) Benham be1i..... that the thrust of McGovern's campaign will be to pain~ as an ogre, totally controlled by Big BUlline•• # the ufluence peddlers, ITT, etc: .. ,

9) As to McOoYern's Vice Presidential nomiJMe, Benham doubts that. he w1ll choose Kevin White to bring the Catholic vote back t:.o ttha DelllOcrau. It 1s Benham' 8 opinion that:. 1960 eMad the polit.ical rule that a Catholic vot•• for a Catholic just because he 1. a Catholic. Benham believes that the President will retain ble Catholic strength because of his stands Oft abortion and paroehial aid,

10) Benbam doubts that:. the President can carry New York. He says he .,111 beli... it when he .8•• it. If the President does carry New YOl'k, Benham believes .1twill be one of the hi<.Ne.t election landslide. eveI.' •

11) Altho. George Wallace 18 on the ballot in New Jer••y. ther. 18 a.bsolutely no Wallace activit.y currently in New Jft••" 12) Conoernin9 the Xeynote Speech for the Republican Convent.1on, Tom Benham believas that something ana1oqow; to Rooa...lt'. 1932 epeeGb would be excellent. That was the speech where Roosevelt. listed a litany of -Qapubllcan& Say X But They Vot.ed Aq.... t. X-. It was a devaatating political speach beoaua. it painted the Republicans as deceitful and oo...tou of office. lie believes that. a very similar speech could be put. toqether based on McGovern's - 3 ­

quotes. As to the Keynoter, Tom Benham suggests someone 11ke Don Rusnsfeld, who is young, non-ideological, and an exoellent speaker. He believes that if Edward Brooke would deliver the type of Roosevelt speech that he suggests, it would be very effective. lIe does not think that the fact that Brooke is a blaok would be a problem becauae the white intolerants will say that he is a good token black and the white moderates will say that Brooke is a perfect example of the progressive Republican Party.

SUBJECTs Campaii2 Advertisin2 - McGovern Materials I • 1

You last saw Peter Dailey on June 2, for a general review of the campaign advertisinq. Subject to further testing, the sloqan ·President N'xon - Now More Than Ever- was approved. The test was favorable and Mitchell gave Dailey final approval.

Dailey's November Group now has the slogan in the "final, three different comprehensive layouts". The final choice would be for bumper stickers, buttons, newspaper print, etc. This would be a graphic presentation. In addition, you could watch the McGovern documentary and spots. Mike Lesser of November Group has an excellent oral analysis of these materials. His written summary is attached. The entire meeting -- layouts, McGovern materials, and Lesser analysis -- can be done in one hour.

Davies claimed that the.e were not tinal figures but were very close, "within a point or two·. He would not give me ~ay results, but did say these figures would probably be released Sunday, July '2, 1972. Also of considerable interest is the Gallup National Referendum. Gallup will try to interview voters in four "barometer" oounties - New London County, Connect.icut, Shelby County, Tennessee, .Montgomery County, Illinois, and San Luis Obispo County, California. Theme counties accurately reflected the sentiment of the oountry in 1968, '64, '60, and '56. The interviewing will be done between June 28 and July 2. The first series of results will be published July 9. John Davies will not be available before then but I will try to qet the results from George Gallup, Jr. The questions on the referendum will bes Proposition '1, -The U.S. should withdraw all troops from Vietnam by the end of this year." "The U.S. should not withdraw all t.roops from Vietnam by the end of this year.­ Proposition .21 "I favor businq sohool children to achieve • better racial balance in the gchools."

"I oppose busing school children to aohi~ a better racial balance in the schools." Proposition ,3, "I think the national budget for military and defense spending should ~e decreased."

Proposition 16. ·Waqe/prloe cont.rols should be made more strict than they are at present."

·Wage/price oontrols should not be made more strict than they are at present.· - 3 ­

Proposition f7l "I favor a plan which would guarantee every family a minimum income of at least $2,400 a year."

"I oppose a plan which would guarantee every family a minimum income of at least $2,400 a year."

Proposition t8. "I think the police and other law enforcement agenoies in the u.S. should be tougher than they are now in dealing with crime and lawlessness."

"I think the polio. and other law enforcement ageneies in the U.S. should not be tougher than they are now in dealing with crime and lawlessness."

Proposition '91 "Which one of the following persons would you like to see nominated as the Democratic candidate?' (Pull selection) Proposition flOt -Which one of the following persons would you like to see nominated as the Democratic candidate? It GeQrge McGovern

Proposition tl1a trial hea~s among :Nixon, Moqovern and Wallace. Trial heats between Nixon and McGovern. Proposition t12t Trial heats among Nixon, Humphrey and Wallace. Trial heats between Nixon and Humphrey.

MEMOR,MlDUM FOR I

FROM. GORDON STRACHAN SUBJECT.

Chuck Colson sent you the attached memorandum .ummarizing his discussion with the President. The President sU9gested to Colson that ORC conduot. a poll on some of McGovern -. positions including troops home before POW-s, amne.ty, marijuana, abortion, and welfare propos.... The President's position would be contrasted and ORC would issue • pre•• release. Colson recommends waiting until after the Demo­ cratic Convention.

The questions sugqested are being asked in the Waw II Campaiqn Surveys, which is in the field now. ORC i. doing the national over_ample. The•• national results will be available July 16 and aould be released then. Of oourse, a quick ORe telephone poll could be done for a release in August or September emphasizing McGovern's radical stands. Another possibility is tbe use of Decision Making Information "Listening Post" survey. Th. political questions on this commercial monthly telephone poll in Los Angel.. and Oranqe County were sent to Tom Reed, the Republican National committee­ man in California. Bob Teeter now bas direct control of those questions. There will be four opportunities between now and November to have questiona added. The deadline for the July survey is Monday, June 26. Teater has asked them to continue their trend questions on trial heats (McGovern and Humphrey, with and without Wallace), the President'. approval and why, the President's handling of Vietnam, and the economy. The results will be available to Teeter during the third week of August and will not be released to the public without Teeter's clearance. T••ter can add two or thre. additional questions and I suggested the legalization of marijuana and amnesty. They will be phra.ed as the Wave II questions are, will give us a reading during July, and will be available for possible release to the press in late August or early September.

/ MEivfORANDUM FOR: H. R. HALDEMAN •• rV FROM: CHARLES COLSON>

SUBJECT: ORC Poll

The President mentioned to me the other day that he would like to sec an ORC poll son'letime in which a series of issue-oriented questions are asked. The issues would be those on which there is a clear difference between the President and McGovern. For example, bringing all the troops horne before the POWs are released, unrestricted amnesty, legalizing marijuana, abortion, $1000 welfare benefits, etc. etc. The President's feeling is that the vast majority would support the Nixon position as against the McGovern position and this would make a very worthwhIle press release by ORC.

He simply asked that I take it up with you. For what it's worth, I personally believe that this might be very effective, but not until after the Democratic Convention and perhaps not until September. The other side of the argument is that McGovern will have shifted all his positions by then and the poll data would be considered irrelevant. It would be one clear way of showing that the people support the President's stand as against lv1cGovern's. '.

SUBJECT I Georte Wallace - Phisieal (!onCI flon '01Ite.1 "Plans AI ana: • II

Harry Dent maintains some contact with the Wallace organiaation. Tom Turnipseed, former Wallace Chief of Statf - -I'll make Mrs. Wallace the Jackie Kennedy .f the rednecks- - i. the primary contact. He is not formally assooiated now with the Wallace staft b~t sees the Governor and his people regularly. Turnipseed praotices law in South Carolina. Dent has helped that practice. In ~eturn, Turnipseed has told Dent ~lat at the MCGovern-Wallace meeting at the hospital, Wallace told McGovern to keep his hands off his (Wallace's) deleqat.a. McGovern responded by sayin9 that he had instructed his dele­ gates in states where Wallace received a majority of the votes (Michigan) to vote for Wallace on the first ballot. Wallace was wary but pleased. Dent has not contacted Turnipseed in the last few days because Turnipseed wants 1l'Ol.'8 law business and money. Wallace Henley, on Dent's staff, talks with his former colleagues in . One is a reporter who has covered Wallaoe for 20 years. These sources indicate that Wallace 1s in much worse physical condition than preas reports indicate. Wallace plans on going to the Democratic conv.ft~lon in a wheel chair even if it kills him. It may well do just that.

All of Dent and Henley's contacts are convinced tha~ Wallace will not pursue a third party route this fall.

I have not asked Magruder' to check Mitchell on any other linea to Wallace. However, in light of the June 12 Aotion Memorandum (attached) that Dent should .e. George Wallace personally, you may want to cover this personally with Mitohell or with Ehrliahman's political qroup.
