H: Yep.

P: [unintelligible].

P: I don't know whether Alex told you or not, but I want a Secret Service reception some time next week. I just gotta know who these guys are. [Unintelligible]. Don't you think so? I really feel they're there--that ah, I see new guys around--and Jesus Christ they look so young.

H: Well, they change them--that's one [unintelligible] any reception now would be totally different [unintelligible].

P: Get 100 then--so it's 200 and I shake their hands and thank them and you look [unintelligible] too--[unintelligible]. They have a hell of a lot of fellas, let's face it, [unintelligible] friends [unintelligible], but I just think it's a nice--

H: They all--you have such--that's why it's a good thing to do, cause they are friends--and they have such overriding respect for you and your family--that

P: I wouldn't want the whole group--something [unintelligible]. Third point--I would like a good telephone call list for California, but not a huge book, and the kind is--This would be a good take where [unintelligible] and just give thanks to people for their support. For example, Colson had me call [unintelligible] the other day--[unintelligible] thing to do, but, here you could take the key guys that work--I wouldn't mind calling a very few key contributors--maybe, but we're talking about magnitude of ten--very key ten.

H: Ten--you mean ten people?

P: Ya.

H: Oh, I thought you meant $10,000.

P: No, ten. Ten. I was thinking of very key [unintelligible] people like--that worked their ass off collecting money, just to say that--people that--the people that are doing the work--very key political [unintelligible] just to pat them on the back. I mean that means a helluva lot--very key political VIPs, you know, by political VIPs--ah [unintelligible] just get the South get a better [unintelligible]. Our problem is that there are only two men in this place that really give us names--that's Rose the other is Colson, and we just aren't getting them. But I mean ah, and then editors--by editors and television people--like a [unintelligible] call, but a few key editors who are just busting their ass for us where there's something to do. But give me a good telephone list, and Rose should give me a few personal things--like I do a lot of things, but I called [unintelligible] here today some [unintelligible] and things of that sort. But I think this would be a very good use of my time while I'm in California. I never mind doing it you know when I've got an hour to put my feet up and make a few calls don't you agree?

H: Yep.

P: I think of the campaign--that's going to be a hell of a [unintelligible]. I think sometimes when we're here in Washington, you know, supposedly doing the business of the government, that I can call people around the country--people that will come out for us--and so forth, like [unintelligible] for example, Democrats come out for us. They're [unintelligible] right across the board--Democrat or labor union. [Unintelligible].

H: Ya.

P: Religious leaders [unintelligible] say something. You gotta be careful some ass over in [unintelligible]. He just doesn't really have his head screwed on, Bob. I could see it in that meeting yesterday. He does not.
