SENATOR BOB DOLE MAJORITY ' 86 BREAKFAST VI STA INTERNAT I ON AL HOTE L AP RIL 15, 1986 , 8 :30 - 1 0 :15 a. m.

SC RIPTED REM ARKS : 9:00 A.M.

IT'S MY PRIVILEGE TO BE I N VITED HERE TODAY TO THE MAJORITY '86 BREAKFAST. ACTUALLY ... I ENJOY ATTENDING ANY BREAKFAST ... WHERE I DON'T HAVE TO DO THE DISHES.

I QUESS IT'S FORCE OF HABIT ... BUT I KEEP EXPECTING ELIZABETH TO WALK IN AND TELL ME IT'S MY TURN TO DRY.

I'D LIKE TO TAKE A MOMENT TO WELCO ME EACH OF YOU TO THE NATION'S CAPITAL ... THE HOME OF WASHINGTON ... LINCOLN ... AND TIP O'NEILL RETIREMENT PARTIES.

FROM TIME TO TIME . . . PEOPLE ASK ME WHY TIP IS RETIRING AT THIS PARTICULAR TIME. IT'S NO SECRET ... JUST LOOK AROUND THE I SAY REASONS •.• TIP I ROOM ... "YOU" ARE THE REASON ... OR SHOULD DECIDED TO LEAVE WASHINGTON.

TIP KNEW THE TIME FOR RETIREMENT WAS NEAR . .. WHEN HE LOOKED AT OUR LIST OF IMPRESSIVE CANDIDATES FOR THE ' 8 6 CAMPAIGN. BUT HE SAW MORE THAN THAT . .. HE SAW THAT THEY WERE BACKED BY DEDICATED ... IDEALISTIC ... HARD WORKING MEMBERS OF MAJORITY ' 86 .

AND THE SIGHT LEFT TIP A LITTLE BREATHLESS .. . ALL HE COULD SAY WAS ... "NOW I KNOW HOW KHADAFY FELT .. . WHEN HE SAW THE SIXTH FLEET."

YOU HAVE TO CREDIT TIP WITH A LOT OF POLITICAL INSIGHT ... HE KNEW IF HE TRIED TO LEAD AN ATTACK AGAINST us . .. THE RESULTS WOULD BE THE SAME AS THOSE SUFFERED BY KHADAFY AT THE HANDS OF THE SIXTH FLEET.

Page 4 of 28 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

AFTER ALL ... IT IS THE GOAL OF MAJORITY ' 86 TO BLOW THE DEMOCRAT S OUT OF THE WATER .. . ISN ' T IT?

AND I THI NK I T WOULD BE KI ND OF NICE ... IF HE LET JIM SAN TINI FIRE THE FIRST SHOT.

OF COURSE OUR REPUBLICAN FLEET WILL BE STANDING BY . .. TO PICK UP ALL SURVIVORS.

WE'VE LEARNED IN THE PAST FEW YEARS ... THAT DEMOCRA TS MA KE GREAT REPUBLICANS .

WE AREN'T INTERESTED I N SI NKING DEMOC RATS . . . WE'RE INTERESTED IN SINKING OLD IDEAS .

TWENTY THOUSAND LEAGUES UNDER THE SEA IS MORE THAN A JULES VERNE CLASSIC ... IT ' S WHERE THE DEMOCRATS ' ECONOMIC POLI~CIES OF THE PA ST BELONG ... AND AFTER '86 . . . THAT'S WHERE THEY'LL BE.

I'M POSITIVE (NORMAN VINCENT PEALE TOLD ME TO SAY THAT) EVERYONE HERE WILL DO THEIR SHARE TO MAKE '86 JUST AS SUCCESSFUL

AS I 8 0 ... I 8 2 . .. AND I 8 4 .

I KNOW YOU'LL BE THERE WHEN YOU ' RE NEEDED BECAUSE YOU'VE ALWAYS BEEN THERE IN THE PAST . .. NOT WITH FANCY PROMISES .. . BUT WITH HARD WORK AND MONEY--THAT GOT RESULTS.

AND NOBODY KNOWS THAT BETTER THAN I DO . .. IT'S BECAUSE OF YOUR HARD WORK AND YOUR FINANCIAL BACKING ... THAT I NOW HAVE THE PRIVILEGE TO SERVE YOU AS MAJORITY LEADER OF THE U. S. SENATE.

A POSITION REQUIRING THAT I PERFORM THREE MAJOR DUTIES .. . THE FIRST IS TO WORK CLOSELY WITH THE WHITE HOUSE . . . THE SECOND IMPORTANT FUNCTION IS TO KEEP LEGISLATION FLOWING SMOOTHLY ... AND THE THIRD AND MO ST DI FF ICULT ... IS TO PICK UP AFTER THE SECRETARY OF TRANSPORTATI ON.

Page 5 of 28 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

THE FIRST TWO DUTIES ARE NO PROBLEM ... THE LAST ONE TAKES ALL MY TIME.

I WAS A LITTLE DISAPPOINTED WHEN I WASN ' T INVITED TO GO WITH YOU TO THE WHI TE HOUSE ... I DON'T GET UP THERE AS OFTEN AS I'D LIKE.

I THINK MY INVITATIONS ARE GETTING LOST IN THE MAIL ... THAT'S WHAT DON REGAN KEEPS TELLING ME.

TEDDY KENNEDY IS THINKING ABOUT JOINING MAJORITY '86 ... IT'S THE ONLY WAY HE'LL EVER GET TO THE WHITE HOUSE.

FOR A LONG TIME ... IT'S BEEN MY BELIEF THAT ELECTED OFFICIALS IN WASHINGTON SHOULD TAKE THEIR WORK SERIOUSLY ... BUT NOT THEMSELVES.

WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO LAUGH AT OURSELVES ... IF WE DON'T THE REST OF THE WORLD WILL.

AND I THINK EVERYONE HAS TO ADMIT •.. IT'S A LOT EASIER TO LAUGH IN THIS COUNTRY TODAY ... THAN IT WAS A FEW YEARS AGO.

A BOOMING REPUBLICAN ECONOMY ... BACKED BY A STRONG MILITARY DEFENSE ... HAS LIFTED THE VEIL OF FEAR FROM OUR FACES.

IN THOSE DAYS ... OUR STOMACHS WERE TIED IN KNOTS ... WORRYING ABOUT HOW WE'D BE ABLE TO COPE WITH SHORTAGES ... RUNAWAY INFLATION ... FINDING ANOTHER JOB.

THE REAGAN REVOLUTION HAS UNTIED THOSE KNOTS.

THE AMERICAN PEOPLE REGAINED CONTROL OF THEIR DESTINY ... BY ELECTING PRESIDENT ... AND A REPUBLICAN MAJORITY IN THE SENATE.

Page 6 of 28 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

THIS COUNTRY'S RECOVERY ... BOTH ECONOMICALLY ... MILITARILY ... AND SPIRITUALLY ... WAS NO ACCIDENT ... IT WASN'T SOME FREAK HAPPENING ... OR A QUIRK OF NATURE.

IT TOOK PLANNING ... FIRST THERE WAS PLANNING BY THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ... WHO FINALLY DECIDED IT WAS TIME TO SEND MEN AND WOMEN TO WASHINGTON WHO HELD THEIR VALUES ... WHO HELD THEIR BELIEFS ... WHO HELD THEIR TRUST.

AND THESE REPUBLICAN MEN AND WOMEN ALSO HAD A PLAN ... THEY CAME TO WASHINGTON WITH A ROAD MAP FOR PROGRESS. THEY WEREN'T LIKE THE PREVIOUS ADMINISTRATION ... WHO'S ONLY ROAD MAP WAS THE ONE THEY PICKED UP AT A GAS STATION IN PLAINS.

OUR ROAD MAP SHOWED WHERE WE WERE ... WHERE WE WANTED TO GO ... AND THE BEST WAY TO GET THERE.

THE DEMOCRATS' MAP WAS DIFFERENT ... IT LACKED DIRECTION .•• THEY HAD NO IDEA OF WHERE TO GO OR HOW TO GET THERE.

AND WHERE WERE WE? 21% INTEREST RATES ... DOUBLE DIGIT INFLATION ... DECREASING MILITARY CAPABILITY. THAT'S WHERE WE WERE ... AND THAT'S NO PLACE TO BE.

ACCORDING TO THE DEMOCRATS' OWN MAP ... WE WERE LIVING ... AND WOULD ALWAYS LIVE ... IF YOU CAN CALL IT THAT ... IN THE TOWN OF MALAISE. A TOWN BOTH DESIGNED AND BUILT BY THE CONSTRUCTION FIRM OF TIP ... TEDDY ... AND JIMMY ... INC.

A PLACE ... THAT IN JUST SIX YEARS ... PRESIDENT REAGAN AND A REPUBLICAN SENATE ... HAS TURNED INTO A GHOST TOWN.

THAT IS WHY THE DEMOCRATS MUST NOT REGAIN CONTROL OF THE SENATE. THAT IS WHY THE 1986 ELECTIONS ARE JUST AS IMPORTANT AS THOSE IN 1980.

Page 7 of 28 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

ALL WE HAD TO OFFER THE AMERICAN PEOPLE IN 1980 WERE HOPES AND DREAMS.

NOW IN 1986 ... THE HOPES AND DREAMS FOR MANY HAVE BECOME REALITY.

BUT THIS IS NOT ENOUGH. THERE ARE STILL PROBLEMS TO BE HANDLED. BUT WE HAVE CHARTED A COURSE OF PROGR ESS THAT OFFERS LEADERSHIP FOR THE FUTURE.

A STRONG PRESIDENT ... WORKING WITH A REPUBLICAN SENATE ... HAS PUT THIS COUNTRY BACK ON THE ROAD TO GREATNESS ... AND THIS IS REFLECTED ... NOT JUST IN THE FACTS AND FIGURES ... BUT IN THE FACES OF AMERICANS ALL ACROSS THIS GREAT LAND.

PRESIDENT REAGAN TOLD US TWO YEARS AGO ... AMERICA IS BACK ... AND THIS TIME ... THANKS TO YOU ... WE'RE BACK TO STAY.

YOUR POLITICAL COMMITMENT rs REFLECTED NOT ONLY WITH YOUR FINANCIAL COMMITMENT BUT ALSO WITH YOUR ACTIVE PARTICIPATION AS A MAJORITY '86 MEMBER.

OUR PARTY OWES YOU A GREAT DEBT OF GRATITUDE ... AND ON BEHALF OF OUR REPUBLICAN MAJORITY ... I THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU HAVE DONE.

I NOW WANT TO GIVE YOU THE CHANCE TO MEET OUR LEADERS FOR THE FUTURE ... THE FRESHMAN CLASS OF 1986.

(INTRODUCES CANDIDATE #1).

Former Governo r Richard Snelling Vermont

Richard Snelling has a background of loyalty and hard work in the State of Vermont. And now, as a cand idate to the Senate, his impressive record makes him a popular candidate.

Snelling was elected Governor of Ve rmont in 1976 and served four terms. Prior to his election, he served in the Vermont House of Representatives from 1960-62 and 1972-76. During his last tenure, he served as the House Majority Leader. As an elected official, he has made decisions that have benefitted the state in many ways. During his tenure, the general fund expenditures rose less than 1% per year. In addition, the outstanding long-term general obligation debt decreased by 41%, and taxes were cut by a wide margin. His concern about the federal budget deficit has been reinforced by proposition 1, an organization aimed at educating the electorate on the need for sound fiscal policy.

As governor, he also strived for efficiency in government. In fact, after his eight years in off ice, there was not one more state government employee on the payroll than when he was first elected. Probably one of his most outstanding endeavors took place in 1979. At that time, the Georgia Whey plant, which was unresourceful with design flaws~ was turned into a successful and viable company under Snelling's leadership. Through his leadership, Georgia Whey is now the largest employer in Northwest Vermont.

Because of this, many other dairy-related businesses have now opted to locate in Northwest Vermont. Along with this comes jobs and fiscal growth for the entire state. Snelling resides in Shelburne, Vermont, where he is a hardware and sports equipment manufacturer. He is a graduate of Harvard University, and served in the U.S. Army.

Asa Hutchinson Arkansas

Asa Hutchinson, 35, believes his conservative philosophy is more in line with sentiments of the Arkansas voter and is challenging Arkansas' third-term senator this November. He describes himself as a Reagan conservative who supports a balanced budget constitutional amendment and opposes tax increases . He is described by political observers as being energetic and articulate .

He received his Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting from Bob Jones University in Greenville , South Carolina in 1972 and his law degree from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville in 1975.

He also founded and is principal owner of his family's radio station in Bentonville, KBCV-FM.

In March of 1982, President Reagan appointed Hutchinson as United States Attorney for the Western District of Arkansas. After moving to Fort Smith to assume this position, he emphasized the prosecution of major drug traffickers, the collection of government debts and the prosecution of government fraud cases. National media attention centered on his off ice during the prosecution of the terrorist group in northern Arkansas known as The Covenant, The Sword and The Arm of the Lord.

After assisting in the negotiation for the surrender of James Ellison, the leader of CSA, and after prosecuting 13 members of the white supremacist group, Hutchinson received the Director's Award from the Department of the Treasury and a Citation from the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

Hutchinson established and served as the first Chairman of the Law Enforcement coordinating Committee for the Western District, which was designed to improve cooperation between federal, state and local law enforcement agencies. He was a member of the Attorney General's subcommittee on Drug Abuse Education and served as Chairman of the Subcommittee on Immigration.

State Representative Judy Koehler Illinois

State Representative Judy Koehler serves the citizens of Illinois as a Republican Representative from the 89th District of central Illinois.

A tenacious and determined campaigne r, Koehler began her political career in 1980 by overwhelmingly defeating an incumbent Republican state legislator in the primary election and going on to defeat her Democrat opponent in the 1980 general election by a huge margin. Since then, she has been re-elected by increasing margins.

Representative Koehler made Illinois history following the last Illinois legislative re-districting when she made the first successful challenge of an Illinois remap before the Illinois Supreme Court. The Supreme Court ordered the Democrat gerry- mandered legislative district drawn for her to be redone as it was more than 125 miles long and less than six miles wide in places.

In the legislature, Koehler has built a reputation for fiscal responsibility and support of traditional American values with a special interest in governmental reform and integrity. Over the course of her career she has won awards and high ratings from the Illinois Chamber of Commerce, the National Federation of Independent Business, the Illinois Manufacturer's Association, and the Illinois Farm Bureau to name a few. An able and effective legislator, Representative Koehler was able to successfully push for the passage of more than 50% of the legislation she sponsored during the 1985 Spring session of the General Assembly. A sampling of her bills include those which address conservation and environmental concerns, strengthen Illinois' Criminal Code, and give additional investment powers to municipalities. Representative Koehler is the Republican Spokesman of the House Energy, Environment and Natural Resources Committee and also serves on the Elementary and Secondary Education, Consumer Protection, State Government Administration, and Urban Redevelopment committees. A native of rural Lima in Adams County, Illinois, Judy Koehler was born and rasied on a family farm and has a background as a teacher, fashion merchandiser, social worker, and businesswoman.

Congressman Henson Moore Louisiana

When Henson Moore was e lected to the U.S. House of Representatives in 1974, he was a newcomer to elected public office. However, it took only a short while for him to become one of the Republican Party's most respected leaders in Congress.

As a member of the House of Representatives, he serves the people of the sixth Congressional District of Louisiana. As a strong advocate of a balanced budget, he serves on the pow erful House Budget Committee. In fact, he is the first Louisianan to ever serve on this committee. He is also a member of the tax-writing Ways and Means Committee.

During his six-term tenure in Congress, Moore has been a tireless fighter in the effort to control government spending . Because of his dedication, he has been honored with the Watchdog of the Treasury Award each term he has served.

Moore's legislative victories in Congress are numerous . He's introduced and passed legislation that protects and Medicaid users from fraudulant practices by health care providers, and also encourages settlement of medical malpractice claims out of court. This proposal has been considered the most profound change in Medicare since its orignal passage.

Congressman Moore has been very active in economic issues as well. He was the author of legislation that expanded participation of Individual Retirement Accounts (IRA's) to all working Americans. His legislation also increased the maximum tax-deductible level for IRA contributions to $2,000 per individual.

In 1979, Moore led the successful effort to stop the 10¢ gasoline tax. He also has gained valuable experience by serving on the Energy and Commerce Committee and the Agriculture Committee, both of keen interest to Louisiana.

With Moore's background and experience as a U.S. Congressman, his candidacy for the U.S. Senate is looked at as a positive mo ve for the state of Louisiana.

Representative Moore served in the Army as company commander of a military police unit in Germany. His association with the military inspired him to have the Navy WWII destroyer, the U.S.S. Kidd, placed permanently in Baton Rouge as an official war memorial and museum. He is a lifelong resident of Louisisana, being bo r n in Lake Charles, and then raised in Baton Rouge. He has a Bachelor's and Ma$ter'$ Degree in political science from Louisiana State Un1vers1ty, and attended LSU Law School. Moore and his wife, the former Carolyn Ann Cherry, have three children and reside in Baton Rouge.

JOHN McCAIN - ARIZONA

AND HARDSHIP FOR THE SERVICE OF HIS COUNTRY. HE WAS ONCE STUCK

IN AN ELEVATOR WITH .

JOHN'S AWARDS INCLUDE THE SILVER STAR, BRONZE STAR, LEGION OF

MERIT, PURPLE HEART AND DISTINGUISHED FLYING CROSS. AS FOR

SITTING THROUGH AN ENTIRE TIP O'NEILL SPEECH HE WAS AWARDED THE

CONGRESSIONAL MEDAL OF BOREDOM.

ASA HUTCHINSON - ARKANSAS

THERE ARE 2 THINGS ASA WOULD LIKE TO SEE MORE BALANCED. THE

BUDGET AND LIBERAL DEMOCRATS.

ASA SAYS HE WON'T USE HIS OWNERSHIP OF AN ARKANSAS RADIO

STATION TO HIS POLITICAL ADVANTAGE. IT'S JUST A COINCIDENCE

THAT THE STATION WEATHERM!N REFERS TO A RAINY DAY AS A DALE

BUMPERS.

JUDY KOEHLER - ILLINOIS

JUDY HAS A BACKGROUND AS A SOCIAL WORKER. FINDING A SOCIAL

WORKER IN THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IS A LITTLE LIKE FINDING AN

ORIGINAL IDEA AMONG THE DEMOCRATS.

JUDY'S POLITICAL RECORD IN ILLINOIS IS ESPECIALLY IMPRESSIVE

WHEN YOU CONSIDER SHE RUNS IN A STATE WHERE 10 OUT OF EVERY

5 PEOPLE VOTE DEMOCRAT.

HENSON MOORE - LOUISIANA

AS A MEMBER OF THE AGRICULTURE COMMITTEE, HENSON UNDERSTANDS

IT'S COWS THAT SHOULD BE MILKED, NOT TAXPAYERS.

BACK IN LOUISIANA, IT'S A TREAT TO BEAT YOUR FEET ON THE

·.·'. MISSISSIPPI MUD, AND IT WILL BE A TREAT TO BEAT JOHN BREAUX IN NOVEMBER.

KIT BOND - MISSOURI

KIT UNDERSTANDS THAT MISSOURI IS THE "SHOW ME" STATE. THE

DEMOCRATS THINK IT'S THE "SNOW ME" STATE.

AS GOVERNOR, KIT ATTRACTED SO MUCH NEW INDUSTRY TO HIS STATE,

HE WAS KNOWN AS MISSOURI'S LEADING SALESMAN. THIS GUY COULD

SELL HAIRBRUSHES TO ALAN CRANSTON.

JIM SANTINI - NEVADA

EVEN WHEN HE WAS DEMOCRAT JIM USUALLY DISAGREED WITH TIP

O'NEILL. COMING FROM A MINING STATE, HE RECOGNIZES THE SHAFT.

JIM DOESN'T MIND MISSLES BEING LOCATED IN NEVADA, AS LONG AS

THEY'RE AIMED AT ATLANTIC CITY.

TOM KINDNESS - OHIO

TOM IS A MEMBER ON THE COMMITTEE FOR GOVERNMENT OPERATIONS.

AND IF HE EVER FIGURES OUT HOW THE GOVERNMENT OPERATES, I

HOPE HE'LL LET ME KNOW.

TOM'S OPPONENT MAY HAVE THE "RIGHT STUFF", BUT HIS PARTY

JUST HAS TOO MUCH OF THE LEFT STUFF.

RICHARD SNELLING - VERMONT

DICK COMES FROM A STATE KNOWN .FOR MAPLE SYRUP. WHEN SOMEONE

SAYS, "THE SAP IS RUNNING", THEY'RE EITHER TALKING ABOUT

TREES OR A DEMOCRAT.

THE DAY DICK ANNOUNCED FOR THE SENATE, 1200 SUPPORTERS BRAVED

A VERMONT SNOWSTORM TO HEAR HIM. BUT THAT'S NOTHING COMPARED

TO THE SNOW THEY'LL GET FROM THE DEMOCRATS.
