Weinberger, not a defense technocrat, managed a massive defense buildup of 1.5 trillion dollars over a four year period. A biographical approach to Weinberger illuminates Reagan’s selection, for in many ways Weinberger harkens back to an earlier type of defense manager more akin to Elihu Root than Robert McNamara; more a man of letters than technocrat.

  • ("DSCC") Files This Complaint Seeking an Immediate Investigation by the 7
    COMPLAINT BEFORE THE FEDERAL ELECTION CBHMISSIOAl INTRODUCTXON - 1 The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee ("DSCC") 7-_. J _j. c files this complaint seeking an immediate investigation by the 7 c; a > Federal Election Commission into the illegal spending A* practices of the National Republican Senatorial Campaign Committee (WRSCIt). As the public record shows, and an investigation will confirm, the NRSC and a series of ostensibly nonprofit, nonpartisan groups have undertaken a significant and sustained effort to funnel "soft money101 into federal elections in violation of the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971, as amended or "the Act"), 2 U.S.C. 5s 431 et seq., and the Federal Election Commission (peFECt)Regulations, 11 C.F.R. 85 100.1 & sea. 'The term "aoft money" as ueed in this Complaint means funds,that would not be lawful for use in connection with any federal election (e.g., corporate or labor organization treasury funds, contributions in excess of the relevant contribution limit for federal elections). THE FACTS IN TBIS CABE On November 24, 1992, the state of Georgia held a unique runoff election for the office of United States Senator. Georgia law provided for a runoff if no candidate in the regularly scheduled November 3 general election received in excess of 50 percent of the vote. The 1992 runoff in Georg a was a hotly contested race between the Democratic incumbent Wyche Fowler, and his Republican opponent, Paul Coverdell. The Republicans presented this election as a %ust-win81 election. Exhibit 1. The Republicans were so intent on victory that Senator Dole announced he was willing to give up his seat on the Senate Agriculture Committee for Coverdell, if necessary.

  • Presidential Handwriting File, 1981-1989
    PRESIDENTIAL HANDWRITING FILE: PRESIDENTIAL RECORDS: 1981-1989 – REAGAN LIBRARY COLLECTIONS This collection is available in whole for research use. Some folders may still have withdrawn material due to Freedom of Information Act restrictions. Most frequent withdrawn material is national security classified material, personal privacy, protection of the President, etc. PRESIDENTIAL HANDWRITING FILE: PRESIDENTIAL RECORDS: 1981-1989 The Presidential Handwriting File is an artificial collection created by the White House Office of Records Management (WHORM). The Presidential Handwriting File consists of a variety of documents that Ronald Reagan either annotated, edited, or wrote in his own hand. When documents containing the president's handwriting were received at WHORM for filing, the original was placed in the Presidential Handwriting File and arranged by the order received. A photocopy of the document was placed in the appropriate category of the WHORM: Subject File. The first page of the casefile was stamped Handwriting File, indicating the location of the original documents. However, WHORM often failed to indicate on the original documents the original location (i.e. the six digit tracking number, Subject Category Code). The Presidential Handwriting File, as created by the White House, did not contain handwriting found in staff and office files. The Library will be creating a further series of handwriting material from staff and office files. In order to provide better access to the Presidential Handwriting File, the collection has been arranged into six series. Each series is arranged chronologically by the date of the document. Each document has been marked with the appropriate WHORM: Subject File category and a six digit tracking number.

The thought apparently was to highlight within an issue framework, not only the chaotic and contentious democratic contest, but to point out the insipid, petty and self-serving manner in which the debate has been conducted. The attack themes presumably were to be directed primarily at Mondale and Hart before the convention and at the nominee following the convention. The above described approach was discussed Thursday and Friday {5/31/84 & 6/1/84) during a meeting with myself, Ed Rollins, Lee Atwater and Jim Lake, and then myself and the Tuesday Team.

Before Katrina, there were Thomas Ashley overruns in the budget in the areas of defense, transportation, energy, agriculture, and Charles Bowsher veterans’ healthcare. Along with Katrina disaster relief efforts, costs could easily grow to Dan Crippen $250 billion beyond what is assumed in the current budget resolution. Richard Darman Cal Dooley There is a precedent for Congress passing a second budget for a year. For several years Willis Gradison following the establishment of the current budget process, it was standard procedure for William Gray, III Congress to pass a second budget resolution taking into account any newly passed Ted Halstead legislation and updated economic forecasts. This process ended in the 1980s, but Jim Jones procedures allowing Congress to pass a revised budget resolution are still in place. Lou Kerr James Lynn “Next year’s budget has already been derailed and the new fiscal year hasn’t even James McIntyre, Jr. begun,” said Maya MacGuineas, President of the Committee for a Responsible Federal David Minge Budget. “The President and Congress should agree on a new budget that lays down Marne Obernauer, Jr.

  • From Dick Nixon to Joe Biden
    Fifty years of global economic From triumph and disappointment. Dick Nixon to Joe Biden ibrary bookshelves bend under the weight of tomes about Richard Nixon’s foreign policy. Jeffrey Garten’s splendid new book Three Days at Camp David nar- rates the rarely researched companion story of Nixon’s By Robert B. Zoellick major international economic initiative. In doing so, Garten encourages historians to consider the intrigu- ing parallels between Nixon’s security and economic transformations. Nixon was a war president from day one. His fate was to direct a retreat, La most dangerous maneuver. This withdrawal was more than tactical; Nixon believed that his strategic challenge was to reorder the international politics of power because of the relative decline of U.S. economic might. The president aimed to regain advantage through agile world leadership. In foreign policy, Nixon aspired to redraw the map of power as a new multi- polarity. In doing so, the president wanted to avoid a slide back to American isolationism. Nixon’s plan for a new international economy seemed less de- liberate. Nevertheless, Garten’s tale shows that Nixon attempted to rebalance global economic responsibilities and avoid the protectionism of the past. Nixon’s new foreign policy sought better relations with Moscow in order to prevent nuclear war and restrain Soviet expansionism.

  • NAFTA and the North American Future
    Prepared Remarks NAFTA and the North American Future Robert B. Zoellick, Peterson Institute for International Economics Prepared remarks delivered at the Baylor University conference “NAFTA in the Context of a Changing Global Economy” October 15, 2013 I appreciate the invitation to be with you this evening. The 20th anniversary of NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement) offers an excellent opportunity to reflect on the accomplishments—and shortfalls—of this landmark accord, and also to press for the potential we have yet to reach. I’d like especially to compliment Professor Joseph McKinney and Baylor University for organizing this conference to discuss “NAFTA in the Context of a Changing Global Economy.” I’ve been urging the same approach: to think about the future of North America in a global context. Not surprisingly, most of the suggestions about North America are made by regional specialists—and especially by experts in Mexican-American relations. Their knowledge and ideas are invaluable. Yet I’d like to propose another perspective. My vision is of a strong and unique continent—comprised of two developed countries and a rising developing country—in a rapidly changing world economy. Consider the global weight of three democracies; of almost 500 million people; with energy- sufficiency and even exports; an integrated infrastructure system; complementary manufacturing and service industries; a shared effort to develop human capital—through educational innovation, linked to workforce skills, and pro-growth immigration policies; and a common outlook on our fundamental security and foreign policy interests. That North America would be well-positioned to contend with 1.3 billion Chinese—and other lands and peoples around the world.

WHO’S IN CHARGE? DOES THE PRESIDENT HAVE DIRECTIVE AUTHORITY OVER AGENCY REGULATORY DECISIONS? Robert V. Percival* Most regulatory statutes specify that agency heads rather than the President shall make regulatory decisions .1 Yet for more than four decades every President has established some program to require pre-decisional review and clearance of agency regulatory decisions, usually conducted by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).2 On January 18, 2011, President Barack Obama joined his seven predecessors in expressly endorsing regulatory review when he signed Executive Order 13,563.3 President Obama’s regulatory review program generally emulates those of his two most recent predecessors, relying on OMB’s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) to review only the most significant agency rulemaking actions.4 Although this form of presidential oversight of rulemaking is now well established, an important, unresolved question is whether the President has the authority to dictate the substance of regulatory decisions entrusted by statute to agency heads.
