Dear Mr. President: We have discussed a number of names on Sunday last. Of course, I recommend all my Senate Republican colleagues! Specifically, my first preferences are: Gov. Rockefeller or Sen. Goldwater Ambassador George Bush Gov. Linwood Holton Respectfully yours, H1t;j~ Republican Leader , ~ ! ~Cnile~ ,$fa-{e$ ..$enafe OFFICE OF THE MINORITY LEADER WASHINGTON, D.C. 20510 OFFICIAL. BUSINESS The President j WILLIAM L.,-SCOTT V'RGIIIII~ - WASHINGTON, D.C. Z0510 August 12, 1974 The President The White House Washington, D. C. Dear Mr. President: Senate Republican leader, Hugh Scott, has requested that recommendations from individual Senators for the office of Vice President be forwarded to you through his office and I am attaching a copy of a letter written last Friday recommending that consideration be given to appointing one of the seven Republican Senators who have served as Governors of their respective States, and also whose philosophy is as compatible as possible with your own. I am quite aware that Barry Goldwater and Nelson Rockefeller are under consideration for the office of Vice President. While I personally would be pleased at the selection of Senator Goldwat~r, the more liberal wing of the Party would be as unhappy with him as I would be should you selec£ former Governor Rockefeller. In the interest of Party unity, it might not be wise to select a person closely identified in the public mind with either the far right or the far left. Senator Clifford Hansen of Wyoming is conservative; yet, I understand that a survey by Congressional Quarterly indicated that he had supported the legislative proposals of the Nixon Administration to a greater extent than any other Senator. He is a former Governor of his State, a popular and able Senator, serving his second term, whose nomination would be acceptable to all wings of the Party. There would also be geographic balance and I believe you can count on him to be as loyal to your Administration as he was the Nixon Administration. Senator Strom Thurmond has been school superintendent, a trial lawyer, a judge, a Major General, Governor of his State and served with distinction for a number of years in the Senate. I know that he is past 70 but you will recall the warm acceptance given to Alben Barkley as Vice President even though he, too, was an elder statesman. The President - 2 - August 12, 1974 A younger Senator, who has served as Governor of his State, is Dewey Bartlett. He is a very personable individual who, at 55, could well have a number of years service in his future. While Senator George Aiken of Vermont has served as Governor of his State, age would prevent his serious con­ sideration. Paul Fannin of Arizona, another able Senator and former Governor, age 67, is well regarded within the Senate. Senators Bellmen of Oklahoma, Stafford of Vermont and Hatfield of Oregon have also served as Governors of their States and are well regarded in the Senate. The latter two, however, are more liberal in their thinking than I consider you to be and might pose some problems because of this. Please forgive my dwelling on the obvious too much but it does appear wise to seriously consider these able men who now serve in the Senate but who also have the executive experience which comes from serving as chief executive of their respective States. With kindest personal regards, u.s.s. WLS/del Enc. f·.·ugust 9 !I! 19r(l;. '1'~1~?:. .F~ ..t~cfjj~dc:nt '1';:1.c \r?f1ite liC"J1..i..se 1·t:.i n11in.c;ton, 1)..

  • Richard Russell, the Senate Armed Services Committee & Oversight of America’S Defense, 1955-1968
    BALANCING CONSENSUS, CONSENT, AND COMPETENCE: RICHARD RUSSELL, THE SENATE ARMED SERVICES COMMITTEE & OVERSIGHT OF AMERICA’S DEFENSE, 1955-1968 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Joshua E. Klimas, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor David Stebenne, Advisor Professor John Guilmartin Advisor Professor James Bartholomew History Graduate Program ABSTRACT This study examines Congress’s role in defense policy-making between 1955 and 1968, with particular focus on the Senate Armed Services Committee (SASC), its most prominent and influential members, and the evolving defense authorization process. The consensus view holds that, between World War II and the drawdown of the Vietnam War, the defense oversight committees showed acute deference to Defense Department legislative and budget requests. At the same time, they enforced closed oversight procedures that effectively blocked less “pro-defense” members from influencing the policy-making process. Although true at an aggregate level, this understanding is incomplete. It ignores the significant evolution to Armed Services Committee oversight practices that began in the latter half of 1950s, and it fails to adequately explore the motivations of the few members who decisively shaped the process. SASC chairman Richard Russell (D-GA) dominated Senate deliberations on defense policy. Relying only on input from a few key colleagues – particularly his protégé and eventual successor, John Stennis (D-MS) – Russell for the better part of two decades decided almost in isolation how the Senate would act to oversee the nation’s defense.

    Majority and Minority Party Membership Other Resources Adapted from: “Majority and Minority Leaders”, www.senate.gov Available at: http://www.senate.gov/artandhistory/history/common/briefing/Majority_Minority_Leaders.htm Majority and Minority Leaders Chapter 1: Introduction Chapter 2: Majority and Minority Leaders Chapter 3: Majority and Minority Whips (Assistant Floor Leaders) Chapter 4: Complete List of Majority and Minority Leaders Chapter 5: Longest-Serving Party Leaders Introduction The positions of party floor leader are not included in the Constitution but developed gradually in the 20th century. The first floor leaders were formally designated in 1920 (Democrats) and 1925 (Republicans). The Senate Republican and Democratic floor leaders are elected by the members of their party in the Senate at the beginning of each Congress. Depending on which party is in power, one serves as majority leader and the other as minority leader. The leaders serve as spokespersons for their parties' positions on issues. The majority leader schedules the daily legislative program and fashions the unanimous consent agreements that govern the time for debate. The majority leader has the right to be called upon first if several senators are seeking recognition by the presiding officer, which enables him to offer motions or amendments before any other senator. Majority and Minority Leaders Elected at the beginning of each Congress by members of their respective party conferences to represent them on the Senate floor, the majority and minority leaders serve as spokesmen for their parties' positions on the issues. The majority leader has also come to speak for the Senate as an institution. Working with the committee chairs and ranking members, the majority leader schedules business on the floor by calling bills from the calendar and keeps members of his party advised about the daily legislative program.

Wills June 2012 © 2012 Steven T. Wills. All Rights Reserved. 2 This thesis titled Navy and Marine Corps Opposition to the Goldwtaer Nichols Act of 1986 by STEVEN T. WILLS has been approved for the Department of History and the College of Arts and Sciences by Ingo Traushweizer Assistant Professor of History Howard Dewald Interim Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT WILLS, STEVEN T., M.A., June 2012, History Navy and Marine Corps Opposition to the Goldwater Nichols Act of 1986 Director of Thesis: Ingo Traushweizer The Goldwater Nichols Act of 1986 was the most comprehensive defense reorganization legislation in a generation. It has governed the way the United States has organized, planned, and conducted military operations for the last twenty five years. It passed the Senate and House of Representatives with margins of victory reserved for birthday and holiday resolutions. It is praised throughout the U.S. defense establishment as a universal good. Despite this, it engendered a strong opposition movement organized primarily by Navy Secretary John F. Lehman but also included members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, prominent Senators and Congressman, and President Reagan's Secretary of Defense Casper Weinberger. This essay will examine the forty year background of defense reform movements leading to the Goldwater Nichols Act, the fight from 1982 to 1986 by supporters and opponents of the proposed legislation and its twenty-five year legacy that may not be as positive as the claims made by the Department of Defense suggest.

Packwood reviewed this transcript for accuracy of names and dates. Because no changes of substance were made, it is an accurate rendition of the original recording.] Smith: But at his insistence, it’s about more than Senator Dole, and, when we’re done, we hope we’ll have a mosaic that will really amount almost to a history of the modern Senate, and, in a still larger sense, of the political process as it has evolved since Bob Dole came to this town in 1961, for better or worse; and that’s a debatable point. Let me begin by something Senator [John W.] Warner said in yesterday’s [Washington] Post. It was interesting; I think he came to the Senate in ’78. Packwood: Yes. Smith: What year did you Packwood: I was elected in ’68; came in ’69. Smith: Okay. He talked aboutit’s interesting. He talked about, in effect, the good old days as he remembered them, when freshmen were seen but not heard, when you waited until your second year to give your maiden speech, and when you had a handler to sort of guide you through the initiation.

  • Gerald R. Ford Oral History Project Pat Buchanan Interviewed by Richard Norton Smith October 4, 2010
    Gerald R. Ford Oral History Project Pat Buchanan Interviewed by Richard Norton Smith October 4, 2010 Smith: Thanks so much for doing this. I appreciate it. Buchanan: I’m delighted. Smith: Let me ask you. First of all, what was the attitude in the Nixon White House toward the Republican Congressional leadership, and Ford in particular, during that first term? Buchanan: Well, for the first couple of years, Nixon had one of his speechwriters at all the cabinet meetings, congressional leadership and others, and I was in all the congressional leadership meetings. I think the attitude was very respectful, but I don’t think there was a sense that this was a very powerful, competent, and really able force that we had on Capitol Hill. Nixon was the first time since Zachary Taylor that we had a president with both Houses of the Congress in opposition to him and I don’t think that Nixon felt that these fellows were up to his level of the game. Smith: Would you distinguish at all, not necessarily in terms of competence, but in terms of loyalty, between a Jerry Ford and a Hugh Scott? Buchanan: I know what you’re going to say. Everybody in the White House distinguished between the two. Jerry Ford was a friend of Richard Nixon. Nixon liked him. I’d been out with Nixon for Jerry Ford in Michigan and Romney in Michigan, out there in 1996. Jerry Ford was a friend and a buddy of Nixon’s and I think they genuinely liked each other. I think Hugh Scott was looked upon as on the other side of the party.
