The recently opened Kennedy and Johnson arChives facilitate an internal analysis of the evolution of education policyformulation in the 1960s from the petspective of the executive branch. The central thread of continuity for such an analysis is executive planning through presidential task forces, such as those coordinated in the mid-1960$ by Bill Moyers and Joseph Califano. While task . forcing was for Kennedy largely a one-shot ceampagn effort,of dubious efficacy, it was crucial for Johnson's construction of'the Great Sciciety's programmatic base.

Governor Haley Barbour's
HALEY BARBOUR GOVERNOR STATE OF MISSISSIPPI OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR March 26, 2009 The Honorable Barack Obama President of the United States The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, D.C., 20500 Dear Mr. President: While Mississippi is faring better than many other states in these troubled economic times, we are still facing severe budget constraints. In fact, on March 20, the Joint Legislative Budget Committee adopted the Revenue Estimating Committee's revised revenue estimates projecting that Fiscal Year 2009 general fund revenue fell $301 million, or 5.9 percent, short of expectations, and for Fiscal Year 2010, the projected shortfall will be $402.7 million, or 7.9 percent. To that end, I have been working with the Mississippi Legislature to make the best possible budget decisions from a string of ugly options. My administration will continue to examine the intent of the stimulus dollars and the impact these funds will have on all Mississippians. It is important to create jobs in a fiscally responsible manner without creating unfunded mandates and new government programs. I ask that you release guidance regarding the uses of the Fiscal Stabilization Fund as soon as possible, as the Mississippi Legislature has already extended its 2009 Regular Session.

Industry should be promoted in the followingways: enacting an innovation and commercialization tax credit; redirecting government spending to civilian and dual-use research and development; expanding federal support for cooperative projectswith private industry; monitoring by boards of directorsof corporate performance; preparing by companies of periodic analysesof long-term performance; and expanding exports. -
