PRESIDENTIAL TALKING POINTS: NEW HAMPSHIRE
SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1992
It's great to be here this morning. I worked up a good
appetite yesterday, traveling the state and talking with New
Hampshire voters. You certainly give real meaning to the
term, "frank."
I've got a simple message. You make serious choices in New
Hampshire. You don't elect protesters. You take elections
seriously and you elect Presidents.
The issue this year -- the one that counts most -- is the
economy. And this year, we have two kind of candidates. We
have candidates who can tell you what they will do right
now. And we have candidates who suddenly get vague and
evasive when you ask what they'll do. I have a plan.
Everyone else has an escape plan.
My opponents in both parties have carped and complained, but
they haven't stepped up and told us what they'll do about
problems people want solved now. So take your choice:
Support a President who can offer progress now -- or wait
for a band of people who might be able to help you a year
from now.
I know some candidates like to promote isolationism and
protectionism. Well, that's nothing more than a blueprint
for suicide. America won't succeed economically at home
2
unless it leads economically abroad. So when you vote, you
must decide who understands the new world -- the world after
the Cold War.
And we won't build a better future until we have a Congress
that will take on our present challenges. I submitted a
seven-point short-term economic growth plan to Congress 2-
1/2 weeks ago. That plan makes sense. My housing proposals
will create 1,000 new homes and more than 2,000 new
construction jobs in New Hampshire -- if Congress passes it
on time -- and it will create 415,000 jobs nationwide and
generate $20 billion in new economic activity
My plan includes incentives that encourage people to invest
-- so businesses can grow, so employers can hire workers, so
our economy can get running at full speed.
I've heard a lot of talk about fairness. Well, here's fair:
I've got a plan and it will create jobs. My opponents have
no plan -- and they've already made it hard enough to create
jobs.
Ask yourself: Do you trust your future to people who won't
take on our most pressing problems today? Of course not.
You want someone who understands today's problems, but who
also understands the future.
I've laid out my comprehensive proposals for the economy,
for health care, for a New American Century. If you look at
my opponents, you find two kinds of candidates. Some offer
nothing. Others offer something worse: Failed programs from
THE WHIT5 HOUSE
WASHINGTON
bygone days: Big government, high taxes, more laws and more
regulations.
I've spent much of my life in this region of the country,
and I understand you. We're neighbors, not strangers, and
I'm here to talk and listen. But let me close by asking
your help. I need your help now to persuade Democrat
leaders in Congress to get moving on an economic action plan
-- and to pass it by March 20. And I need your help in
building a foundation for American greatness by giving me a
second term.
This year's election will decide America's future. We can
follow the path of isolation -- and fall behind. We can
follow the path of Big Government -- and fall behind. Or we
can complete the work we started here so many years ago: We
can begin the liberation of our economy -- right now.

The federal government passes a mandate -- and they pass you the
buck [maybe we could add -- but what they don't do is pass you
the bucks]. You get stuck raising taxes.
Communism didn't just fall, it was pushed.
The day of over-regulation is just that: over.
Our national symbol isn't the ostrich -- it's the eagle.
Barbara's: What happens in your house is more important than
what happens in the White House.
We didn't do the easy things. We did the right things.
To those who want to obstruct progress, we say, get moving or get
out of the way. We've got an agenda.
A nationalized health care plan isn't healthy at all -- it's dead
on arrival.
Regulate this, buddy. I got your regulation right here, pal.
Yo' mamma's a regulation and yo' daddy was a mandate. and your

NEW HAMPSHIRE STATE PORT AUTHORITY FACILITY (only)
Within the Pon of New Hampshire, the State of New
Hampshire owns the NHSPA property which is located
on 11.1 acres of land along the Piscataqua River. The
NHPA Terminal (10.0 acres) includes two warehouses,
2 scale house/office, an extensive paved area, five to six
acres used for material, short-term storage and marshal-
ling and a 600-foot-long, deep water pier. Additionally,
the Isles of Shoals Steamship Company operates Its
cruise operations on the other 1.1 acres.
The NHPA was formed in 1957 as part of a port
revitalization project. A 300-foot pier was constructed,
then expanded another 300 feet later in 1972. Today the
600-foot pier accommodates vessels up to 700 feet long.
The terminal operations are contracted out to a private
company which employs ILA union labor to ensure that
cargo is handled efficiently and safely.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers maintains a 35-foot
deep federal channel in the Piscataqua River up to the
entrance to Little Bay. To ensure continued use of the
river for shipping, the ACE recently completed a dredg-
ing project in the river to both widen the channel and to

Arlene, the Port Authority has been critical in meeting the needs
of the some 800 attendees. Your in depth presentations on shipping
and documentation has illustrated the potential for NH businesses
to export and that the Port of New Hampshire is ready to meet these
needs. our efforts through these seminars has not only created an
awareness to international trade, but a demand for an active New
Hampshire Port.
on a last note, the seminars are in full swing for 1992, events are
planned for February, March and April. Mark your calendar and lets
make 1992 just as much of a success as 1991.

GOVERNOR ANNOUNCES PLANS FOR INTERNATIONAL TRADE RESOURCE CENTER
MANCHESTER. NEW HAMPSHIRE***Plans for the development of a one-stop center where
New Hampshire businesses can obtain the information and guidance they require to
enter the world marketplace were announced today by Governor Judd Gregg.
The initial funding for the trade center would be from a $1 million federal
appropriation, obtained by Senator Rudman, with the State committing to maintain
funding for the center in subsequent years.
Addressing an "Exports: Opening Doors to the Future" forum for New Hampshire
businesses in Manchester, the Governor said New Hampshire's international trade
program's objectives will be to develop an international marketing and
promotional assistance, export finance assistance, and interagency coordination
to internationalize state programs.
"With the infusion of federal funding in the amount of $1 million coupled with
State funding from the General Fund and the Economic Development Fund, the
Department of Resources and Economic Development (DRED) will be able to fully
develop a comprehensive International Trade program, said Gregg.
Governor Gregg further noted, "The funding should be used as 'seed' money to
fund expansion of the Division of Economic Development to include an OFFICE OF
INTERNATIONAL COMMERCE (OIC). The OIC will assume equal position to the
division's Office of Business an Industrial Development and the office of Travel
and Tourism Development (OTTD). The three offices of OBID, OTTD and OIC will
work closely together to insure efficient leveling of economic
development-related services to the New Hampshire business community.
Governor Gregg also explained that the International Trade Center could unify
a
number of local agencies and organizations involved in international trade
including the US Department of Commerce/International Trade Administration, US
Department of Commerce/Bureau of Export Administration. New Hampshire Port
Authority, New Hampshire Small Business Development Center, New Hampshire
International Trade Association, US Small Business Administration and the
Tri-State Export-Import Bank and Foreign Credit Insurance Association.
"Unified, the above mentioned resources can provide export counseling. marketing
assistance, transportation advice/expanded use of the Port, export licensing, in
export financing, export risk insurance and business development guidance a
truly one-stop shop operation, Governor Gregg said.

Beyond the trade center, other key elements to the State's International Trade
program include:
*
an intensive outreach program to heighten awareness of trade
opportunities and to fully educate businesses about the
exporting process.
*
Development of a tri-state program with Maine, Vermont and
New Hampshire in conjunction with the Export-Import Bank of
the United States to offer companies a local source for the
processing of applications. Physically located in New
Hampshire, the tri-state program vill offer a Working Capital
Guarantee Program and Export Credit Insurance.
*
An export marketing program will be fully developed through
the utilization of trade shows, trade missions, advertising,
hosting of foreign trade delegation, development of
partnerships and bilateral agreements.
*
Interaction with the academic community in New Hampshire,
particularly with regard to market research, will be
heightened in this effort.

MENDING WALL
"Why do they make good neighbors? Isn't it
Something there is that doesn't love a wall,
Where there are cows? But here there are no cows.
That sends the frozen-ground-swell under it,
Before I built a wall I'd ask to know
And spills the upper boulders in the sun,
What I was walling in or walling out,
And makes gaps even two can pass abreast.
And to whom I was like to give offense.
The work of hunters is another thing:
Something there is that doesn't love a wall,
I have come after them and made repair
That wants it down." I could say "Elves" to him,
Where they have left not one stone on stone,
But it's not elves exactly, and I'd rather
But they would have the rabbit out of hiding,
He said it for himself. I see him there
To please the yelping dogs. The gaps I mean,
Bringing a stone grasped firmly by the top
No one has seen them made or heard them made,
In each hand, like an old-stone savage armed.
But at spring mending-time we find them there.
He moves in darkness as it seems to me,
I let my neighbor know beyond the hill;
Not of woods only and the shade of trees.
And on a day we meet to walk the line
He will not go behind his father's saying,
And set the wall between us once again.
And he likes having thought of it so well
We keep the wall between us as we go.
He says again, "Good fences make good neighbors."
To each the boulders that have fallen to each.
And some are loaves and some so nearly balls
We have to use a spell to make them balance:
THE DEATH OF THE HIRED MAN
"Stay where you are until our backs are turned!"
We wear our fingers rough with handling them.
Oh, just another kind of outdoor game,
Mary sat musing on the lamp-flame at the table
One on a side. It comes to little more:
Waiting for Warren. When she heard his step,
There where it is we do not need the wall:
She ran on tiptoe down the darkened passage
He is all pine and I am apple orchard.
To meet him in the doorway with the news
My apple trees will never get across
And put him on his guard, "Silas is back."

PEASE INSERT ON TRADE RESOURCE CENTER:
One of the most exciting things about New Hampshire's
business climate is your innovation. The rest of the country
looks to the leadership you show through your new International
Trade Resource Center -- a program that will take your state into
the 21st century. At this one-stop clearinghouse, New Hampshire
businesses can get the information they need to guide their entry
into the world marketplace: development guidance; marketing
assistance; transportation and Port use advice; and a full range
of export counseling, licensing, risk insurance, and financing.
The center also creates a model of federal-state cooperation.
I was proud to approve a $1 million appropriation, to be coupled
with state funding now and replaced by it in the future.

NEW HAMPSHIRE - DIVERSIFIED VACATIONLAND
New Hampshire's first-in-the-nation Presidential Primary election every four years draws
international attention and has made the Granite State better known throughout the world than a state
of its modest size has a right to expect.
That no candidate has ever won the Presidency without first winning in New Hampshire has given rise
to the conviction at home and abroad that New Hampshire is a microcosm of America.
Settled in 1623, New Hampshire was one of the 13 original colonies; small towns, white clapboarded
churches and neat village greens attest to Its rich history and tradition. Still, superhighways, shopping
centers and fast food restaurants are among the sure signs of the modern world. Today, next to
Florida, New Hampshire is the fastest growing state east of the Mississippi River.
New Hampshire's population is over the million mark, and old line Yankee predominates, but by not much
over a cosmopolitan mixture of Canadian French, Irish, Greek, Italian, Scandinavian, Teutonic, and
Slav. Indeed, French is virtually the first Language in Berlin, a paper manufacturing city not far from
the Canadian border, and is the second language In Manchester, the state's largest city.
Ample water power put New Hampshire in the vanguard of America's Industrial Revolution. New
Hampshire is still one of America's most highly industrialized states. Yet 87 % of New Hampshire is
heavily forested. More trees grow here now and more wild game live among them than did a century
ago.
Thus while Industrial and economic growth continue at an astonishing pace In New Hampshire, the state
remains the "Playland of New England". Recreational opportunities such as swimming, camping, hiking,
boating, hunting, fishing, skiling and snowmobiling abound. New Hampshire's 18 miles of Atlantic Ocean
coastline is lined with white, sandy beaches; inland there are more than 2,000 lakes and ponds, 40,000
miles of streams and 182 mountains over 3,000 feet high.
There are fine inns, famous resort hotels, attractions for adults, families and children and a wide
variety of dining opportunities. The compact nature of the State makes It possible to be at the ocean,
the lakes or even the mountains In an hour or two of easy driving.
Europeans brought Alpine skiling to America and to New Hampshire In the 1920's-the final touch to make
New Hampshire a four- season resort state.
Today's favorable money exchange rate is making America attractive to European tourists and New
Hampshire's convenience, fine accommodations, low prices and lack of a sales tax are making the State
even more alluring.
Europeans, who are contemplating a visit to America, should know that New Hampshire is only about
200 miles from New York City and easily reached by plane, train, and bus; New Hampshire is only an
hour's drive over superhighways from Boston, New England's major port of entry.

NEW HAMPSHIRE HISTORICAL ITEMS
The White Mountains of New Hampshire can be seen in clear weather from ships off the Maine
coast, some 80 miles away. In 1614 Captain John Smith reported seeing their peaks from the
sea while on a voyage of exploration for the Plymouth Company.
Unlike the founders of the Plymouth colony and the Puritans of Massachusetts Bay, the first
settlers of New Hampshire were commercial venturers who hoped to become wealthy by
developing trade with England in furs, salted fish, and merchantable timber.
By Royal edict, the Provincial government of New Hampshire reserved the finest tall pine trees
with trunks more than two feet in diameter for use as masts In the English Navy.
Although New Hampshire was a stronghold of Revolutionary patriotism, no British army ever
invaded the Granite State.
In 1680, more than half a century after its first settlers arrived from England, New Hampshire
comprised only five towns; Dover, Portsmouth, Exeter, Hampton, and Nashua, with a population
of less than 3,000.
New Castle, chartered in 1693, was the first town created by the Provincial government of New
Hampshire. Originally a part of Portsmouth, known as Great Island, it was one of the earliest
settlements to have a fort and a church.
More than half the American troops who faced British regulars at the Battle of Bunker Hill on
June 17, 1775, were volunteers from New Hampshire led by John Stark.
Silver and glassware were costly rarities in New Hampshire households during the first 100
years of the colony's history. As late as 1730, even well-to-do merchants used pewter in their
dining rooms, while poorer families drank from cups made of horn or leather. Kitchen utensils
were often home-made of wood.
The first important victory won by American arms during the Revolutionary War was the Battle
of Bennington on August 17, 1777, in which John Stark and his New Hampshire Militia routed a
large detachment of Hessians and Indians from General Burgoyne's army.
The first 74-gun "line of battle" ship ordered by the Continental Congress for the New American
Navy was the "America", designed and built by James Hackett at Portsmouth, NH. Although he
was a broadly experienced shipbuilder, Hackett had never seen a "74" in his life. The
"America" was launched in 1777, but wartime delays in her construction kept her from seeing
service during the Revolution, She was finally given to the French government as a gesture of
American gratitude for France's help in defeating Great Britain.

The first glass manufactured north of Boston was produced by Robert Hewes at Temple, NH
in1790.
Samual Morse, famed as the "father of electric telegraphy", was also a gifted painter. Three
portralts In oil of prominent Concord, NH residents, which he painted in 1816, are now in the
museum of the NH Historical Society at Concord.
Between 1820 and 1823, the amount of private capital subscribed to build factories in New
Hampshire Increased from about $2.5 million to more than $8 million, or roughly 230
percent.
Moses Gerrish Harmer of Boscawen, NH was a little-known pioneer in developing the use of
electricity for lighting. In 1859 he lighted a room in his home with two bulbs powered by a wet
cell battery, and 10 years later he succeeded in illuminating his entire house with 40 light
bulbs supplied with current from a "self-exciting" generator.
Benjamin Thompson, a Concord, NH school teacher, won fame in Europe after the Revolutionary
War as a scientist, inventor and philanthropist. When his services to the Elector of Bavaria
were rewarded with a patent of nobility, he chose as his title, "Count Rumford", because at that
time Concord was called Rumford.
The first newspaper in the United States wholly devoted to summer resort information was "The
White Mountain Echo", established at Bethlehem, NH in 1878. An illustrated weekly, it was
Issued for 12 weeks during the tourist season and contained a directory of visitors at all nearby
White Mountain hosteiries.
Lewis Downing, whose Concord Coaches were New Hampshire's best known product a century
ago, Is said to have Inspected personally every vehicle that left his shop. Concord Coaches not
only helped to open up the West, but improved transportation in Mexico, Canada, South Africa,
and Australia between 1850 and 1900.
In 1900 the greatest cotton mills in the world were those of the Amoskeag Manufacturing
Company at Manchester, NH.
New hampshire was: in 1775 the first State to declare its independence from England; in 1776
the first State to form a free Constitutional Government with a Legislature; in 1778 the first
State to create a Constitutional Convention of, for and by the people; in 1783 the first State to
adopt its own constitution; and in 1788 the ninth and deciding State to ratify the U.S.
Constitution.

The such Record
Economic growth 10 on everyone's mind, so let's start
there. Earlier this year the President proposed 8 series of
initiatives that would ensure economic growth and a more
competitive America. Had the Congress agreed to the
President's proposals. meny of which he launched in his very
first State of the Union in February. 1989. the recession could
have been svoided and millions more Americans would be working
today. Last year, For example, the Bush Administration
proposed reducing in the capital gains tax rate along with tax-
free Family Savings Accounts, and penalty-free withdrawals from
IRAs for first-time home buyers.
The President's trip to Asia is aimed at improving our
international competitiveness and keeping good tobs here at
home- The President realizes we live in a global economy, with
our present and future prosperity depending on more exports.
The President knows that every billion dollars of exports means
20,000 more good jobs here at home. so the President is
determined to nail down agreements that guarantee free and fair
trade for American companies and workers.
?
The stock market's remarkable holiday rally is a reminder
of the wide confidence in the economy and in the President's
leadership. Investors are putting their money on the line
because they know the President means business when he says
that #1 on his agenda is "jobs. jobs. jobs."
The President's leadership in foreign affairs and national
security has set a high standard here at home: victory in the
Cold War. victory in the Gulf War, reminds us that we can do
it, we can dream heroic dreams, because we are Americans. The
real peace dividend is a more peaceful planet. The President's
efforts in Eastern Europe in the Middle East. and in Asia,
Africa, and Latin America are simed at peaceful
demooratization, so that never again will Americans have to
fear war. Precisely because we have such an opportunity, the
President is determined to uphold American leadership as a
force for peace, for good, and for prosperity. After all, we
can't export to nations that are at war or else mired in
poverty. The President and Secretary of State Baker and
Secretary of Defense Cheney appreciate that this is still a
dangerous world; that threats from dictators, terrorists, and
madman must be watched closely.
The President recognizes that there is much work to do.
He understands that the American people don't want finger-
pointing, they want positive results. AS he said in his
Inaugural Address, the American people did not send politiciens

to Washington so they could bicker with each other. The
President has proposed comprehensive plans for dealing with
everything from drugs to the deficit. Therefore, it is all the
more unfortunate that Congress, quite frankly, has all too
often delayed or blocked the President's domestic initiatives.
For example, the Congress severely weakened the economy in
1989, 1990, and 1991 when it refused to enact his capital cains
tax rate out, even though the record shows that both Democratic
and Republican Administrations have out this tax on job
creation in the past and gained jobs as well as tax revenue as
& result.
In other critical areas the Congress has been equally
intransigent. The Congress blocked the President's crime bill,
his education reform package. @ national energy strategy, and
banking reform. Even the vital transportation bill, which
would create jobs and improve our infrastructure for
competitivanass, was delayed for months.
Now we are hearing the drumbeat of isolationist, anti-
trade sentiments -- policies that will wreck the healing
economy and seriously damage long term prosperity.
The President is determined to complete the Uruguay Round
of negotiations and the proposed North American Free Trade
Agreement along with the Interprise for the Americas
Initiative. These efforts will not only expand world trade but
will create additional opportunities for U.S. exports through
open markets, lower government subsidies, fewer trade barriers,
and rules of fair play. Free and fair trade will broaden our
economic opportunities to include areas where America's
strengths are particularly great, such as services, high
technology, and agriculture. Speaking of agriculture, the
President was proud to sign a new Farm Bill in 1990.
In order to maintain our competitiveness internationally,
the President believes that we must prepare for the future.
And that includes nurturing our human capital. The President's
national education strategy. "America 2000," will help us
achieve the six national education goals for the end of the
decade which the nation's governors and the President announced
in early 1990. Under the leadership of Education Secretary
Lamar Alexander, the President's education strategy has pursued
four tracks: first. for today's students, we must establish
better and more accountable schools; second, for tomorrow's
students we must create a new generation of American schools;
third. for the rest of us. we must create a nation of students;
and fourth. we must ensure that OUI communities are places
where learning can happen. America 2000 calls for a nationwide
effort which involves every sactor of our society and all
Americans.

The President's education initiatives are intended to
stimulate the reforming and restructuring of our education
system in ways that enhance local control and innovation while
at the same time encouraging parental involvement and expanding
parental choice. Empowering parents to choose the schools
their children will attend -- whether private or public schools
-- 18 a keystone of the President's education agenda.
The President has also submitted to the Congress
legislation that would reauthorize the Higher Education Act in
ways that would reform and strengthen many Federal programs
that guarantee access to affordable, quality post-secondary
education for all.
Investment in America's future also entails investment in
our infrastructure, whether it is transportation, energy,
research and development, financial sector reform, or health
care. Making permanent the Research & Experimentation tax
credit along with an expended commitment to scientific research
will vastly strengthen our research and development capability.
In

to achieve this important goal. As you know, the President
asked Congress when he last spoke to them in March to pass this
cant
bill within & hundred days. Over two hundred days later, the
3min
Congress finally came through. At a highway construction site
in Dallas, the President signed this $150 billion legislation
out
that will create at least 600.000 jobs. The bill also includes
Neit
an innovative privatization provision that will enable the
Farm,
private sector to become more involved in improving and
expending our competitive infrastructure.
The President has also sought to reduce America's energy
vulnerability through conservation and afficiency, increased
domestic energy development, and greater use of alternative
fuels in order to ensure that our future economic growth is not
jeopardised by possible supply disruptions. unfortunately, the
Congress failed to pass national energy legislation, and thus e
more secure energy future sits on the back burner on Capital
Hill.
There was, however, some good news on natural resources.
The Congress agreed with the President on 8 new Clean Air Act.
This landmark legislation was the greatest victory for our
lungs in years. George Bush believes that economic growth and
environmental protection do not have to be mutually exclusive.
He is determined to balance the priorities of economy and
conservation of natural resources through cost effective
environmental initiatives toward implementing the Clean Air

Act, improving our wetlands policy. and reducing air toxic
emissions.
A sound internationally-competitive banking system is also
critical to our aconomic vitality and the financial well-being
of our citizens. Last Spring, the President proposed
comprehensive financial sector reforms that would modernize our
outdated banking laws in order to make our banking system
stronger and safer. The legislation offered a carefully
balance, integrated approach to increased competitiveness, a
sound deposit insurance system that safeguards the deposits of
all Americans, and a national regulatory structure that is both
stronger and streemlined. While the Congress failed to pass
the legislation, we will not give up on pursuing this crucial
set of reforms.
The President has also launched initiatives that would
enhance food safety and that would, through a series of
prevention initiatives, improve infant health and expand
childhood immunizations. The President and Secretary of Human
Services Sullivan are working to improve America's health CATE,
with a special emphasis on prevention. The tragedy of Magic
Johnson is another reminder that only a combination of
abstinence, research and compassion will solve the AIDS
epidemic. The President proposed and signed the landmark Child
Care Act to provide low-inoome working parents with the means
and flexibility to choose the best child care option for their
individual needs.
The President has repeatedly emphasized the need to "put
more power and opportunity in the hands of the individual.
Under the leadership of Secretary of Housing and Urban
Development Jack Kamp, the Administration is seeking to create
thousands of new 10bs in America's inner cities by encouraging
expanded investment through urban enterprise zones. The
President has also called on Congress to expand opportunities
for greater tenant ownership of public housing. And if we are
going to expand opportunities for individuals, we need to make
sure that barriers to such opportunities are eliminated. That
is why the President continues to enforce civil rights law
accressively. He also aggressively sought civil rights
legislation. The outcome of that continuing effort was the
Civil Rights Act of 1991, which the President signed late last
year. The Civil Rights Aot was particularly noteworthy because
the President insisted on no racial quotas. This President was
adamently opposed to quotas, having always believed that civil
rights can be guaranteed in a way that is fair to all and that
relies on removing barriers to opportunity rather than denving
opportunity.
AS a part of putting power into the hands of people, the
President has endorsed the idea of limiting the terms of office
RCV BY:Xerox Telecopier 7020 6-92 9:28AM
2028638774-
2024562380;# 6

for elected officials, including the Congress. The President
of the United States is limited to two terms, as are many state
governors, as wall as other state and local officials. The
time is now to apply the same principle of term limits to
Congress as well. Another vital priority is campaign finance
reform. Here again, the President proposed a balance package
more than two years ago that included curbing special interest
influences by abolishing corporate, union, and trade
association political action committees (PACs).
The Vice President has been particularly in the forefront
of the Administration's efforts to achieve real reforms of the
civil justice system -- the "litigation explosion" that is
undercutting America's competitive edge. The President and the
Vice President know that we are in a global economic race, a
race with no finish line. We can't afford to cripple ourselves
with 18 million law suits a year, draining $300 billion out of
the productive economy! In addition, the Vice President is the
Chairman of the President's Council On Competitiveness, leading
the way to streamlining regulations when the economic burden of
those regulations outweighs the benefits. One immediate
success has been a speed-up in the approval process for life-
saving and life-improving drugs by the Food and Drug
Administration. Taken together, these reforms will help
promote economic growth in all sectors of the American economy,
but small businesses. which have long been the engine of job
creation in America, will benefit especially. Medium and
smaller businesses suffer the most from strangling regulation,
paperwork. insurance and legal costs. as well as high taxes on
capital. The President, who was a small businessman himself
once, 18 determined to help.
The President has spoken many times of the "Four R's" --
reading, writing, 'rithmetic and respect. Americans have a
right to be free from crime and drug abuse. A decent society
keeps the streets safe for all its citizens, even as it does
everything possible to help the homeless. Another partioular
concern of the President's is the safety and well-being of
children. After all, what good is it for parents to have the
opportunity to choose a school for their children, only to find
that the new school 18 jeopardized by drugs, disciplinary
problems, and violence?
The President understands that building a better America
here at home means freedom from fear. The President is
doubling our prison capacity, has doubled the number of federal
prosecutors, and wants the Congress to pass a crime bill with
teeth. Once the Congress passes it, the President's
comprehensive crime bill will help us restore law and order to
our streets, cities, communities and schools, by expending the
death penalty and ending frivolous appeals.

Finally, and most importantly, the President realizes that
the great strength of our nation is the strength of our
citizens. Hm wants all of us to be able live in an America
that is whole and good -- a nation of sturdy communities and
solid families. The President is very pleased that his Points
of Light initiative has struck such a chord with the American
people, because he knows that only Americans in service to each
other will be able to aolve all the problems and grasp all the
opportunities we face.

MEMORANDUM

From:

Re:
New Hampshire Mail
Date:
January 6, 1992
Attached are the talking points Mrs. Bush used for her visit to
New Hampshire to file the President's papers for the primary.
This gives you an idea of the tone and type appeal we have in
mind for the first letter.
I would add to the third talking point something like, "You know
I talk to some of my friends in New Hampshire almost every week.
Some of them are experiencing these hard times. They're
struggling to make ends meet. So, the trouble you're having
there affects me personally."
"I'll be coming to New Hampshire several times in the next few
weeks. My main purpose is to meet as many people as I can--some
I've known before and some I'll be meeting for the first time--to
needs." listen to you. To learn first hand of your problems and your
"I'm working everyday to do whatever is necessary to turn this
economy around, there in New Hampshire and all across America.
Now, I haven't gotten all the cooperation I need from the
Democratic Congress. If some of my proposals for economic growth
had been acted on by Congress, I believe we'd be coming out of
the recession by now."
"But, that just makes me try harder to come up with answers and
solutions to your problems. I hope you'll give me some ideas
when I'm there, ideas to restore the hope and opportunity which
have been such a strong part of the New Hampshire character."
Karl, this is rough, but gives you the general idea. Please call
me or Bob Teeter, if you need more input.
Thanks for your help.

Mr. Rich Myers
Bush Campaign Headquarters
20 Bridge Street
Manchester, NH 03101
Dear Mr. Myers:
As you requested earlier today, I am forwarding information about Cabletron
Systems along with several requests for the presidential visit.
Why, you ask, should Mr. Bush want to visit Cabletron? Simply stated, Cabletron
is the "American Dream." Only in America could a business start from literally
nothing to become the country's fastest growing business operation and a major
force within its own respective industry. Allow me to list only a few relevant facts
about our company's phenomenal success.
In 1983, Cabletron's founders, Robert Levine and Craig Benson -- literally
neighbors in a small apartment complex -- founded the company in a tiny garage
as a reseller of computer cables and connectors. For the first six years of the
company's existence both men financed the operation 100 percent through their
own means, including savings accounts, house mortgages, etc. To say they took a
risk is an understatement, accumulating $15 million of loan debt on personal net
worth of $200,000. To this day, Cabletron has received no venture capital, holds
zero debt and carries $65 million in cash reserves in its accounts.
With only 30 employees on board, the company moved to New Hampshire to
expand its operations into an old mill building where space was not a concern.
There, the company developed a number of patented technologies including a
product known as a transceiver. Today, Cabletron is the world's largest supplier
of transceivers.
In 1989, on the heels of a booming new high technology industry known as the
local area networking industry, Cabletron opened a brand new 126,000 square foot
research and development/manufacturing headquarters promising hundreds of
new jobs for the local economy.
That same year, Cabletron performed its initial public offering on the New
York Stock Exchange (NYSE:CS), a feat rarely accomplished because of the
.JAN 06 '92 12:17
P.3/5
stringent guidelines required by this exchange. To this day, only a limited
number of high-technology stocks appear on the New York Stock Exchange.
In its first full year listed on the New York Stock Exchange, Cabletron was
named the #1 performance stock, rising 204 percent. The company's value also
increased from $400,000 to nearly $1.5 billion today.
As part of its public offering, Cabletron's founders, recognizing the strength of
its organization lie in its people, granted a minimum of 100 shares of stock to each
and every employee (over 400) as a thank you for a job well done, and an incentive
to keep up the good work. That stock, valued at $7 per share only twenty months
$700
ago, now sells near an all-time high of $55 per share.

$6.00.00
To the State of New Hampshire, Cabletron has grown from 30 employees in 1985
to 1350 in 1991, 1850 in the Unites States, and over 2000 worldwide. In 1991,
Cabletron brought a $33 million payroll to the state's economy in addition to
representing over three percent of the state's revenues generated by the Business
Profits Tax. Cabletron's worldwide sales -- by Wall Street estimates -- are
expected to exceed $275 million for the current fiscal year, up from $22 million just
four years ago.
In 1991, Cabletron brought more than 500 new jobs to the State of New
Hampshire, including 101 manufacturing positions where over 1250 job seekers
came to interview.
Today, Cabletron has 40 domestic sales operations; its corporate headquarters
are located in Rochester, New Hampshire beside one of its four U.S.-based
manufacturing operations (totalling more than 200,000 square feet)
International Sales -- Key to the company's growth is its ability to penetrate
foreign markets. Cabletron has invested heavily in creating seven wholly-owned
international subsidiaries and a worldwide direct sales organization. Today, this
market represents 28 percent of our overall revenues, with more than 200
employees overseas and 400 U.S.-based jobs directly tied to international business.
All export sales products are developed and manufactured in the United States.
Briefly, the accolades achieved by the employees of this company over the past
three years include:
1988 -- Named the nation's 7th fastest growing privately-owned company by Inc.
magazine.
1990 -- Named the 2nd "Hottest Growth" Company in America by Business Week
magazine
-- Named 2nd in the Forbes magazine Survey of America's "Best Small
Companies"
-- Named #1 Socially Responsible Stock by Money magazine
1991 -- Co-founders became first to receive "Co-Entrepreneurs of the Year" by Inc.
magazine
-- For the prior year, the company was named the New York Stock
Exchange's #1 performance stock

Rated #531 in Business Week's ranking of "America's 1000 Most Valuable
Companies"
1992 ** Since its founding, has brought eight "industry firsts" to market including
the invention of the "smart hub" and "network management"
Clearly it becomes quite obvious that Cabletron is the "American Dream" come
true. More importantly, our company continues to share a common vision that
teamwork is the key to success in business. Nowhere is this more obvious
than in the founders efforts to keep everything in perspective with employees. In
fact, a recent study showed the typical Japanese CEO earning 16 times his
average worker; the average American CEO earning 200 times his workers; but
here at Cabletron, our founders earn just over two times the average employee.
Yes, they have indeed forged the "American Dream," but remaining competitive
is still the bottom line, and key to the company's collective future.
As we discussed, there are several opportunities we would like to explore with the
presidential visit. These include the following:
A 20-minute tour of our manufacturing facilities and an explanation of our
networking technologies.
A 15-minute closed door meeting with senior management.
A 10-minute closed door meeting with industry trade press to discuss the
growing importance of the technology field and the need to maintain
competitiveness by manufacturing here in the United States.
A 10-minute speech to the employees by the president addressing the
importance of manufacturing in the United States. This will be led by a company
announcement of two new facilities opening this spring in New Hampshire,
bringing a projected 200 new blue and white collar jobs to the state.
A five minute presentation to President Bush of official company jackets for the
president and first lady.
Additionally, we have had numerous requests by national networks for à 5-
minute one-on-one interview with the president.
Mr. Myers, as you can see, we have quite an afternoon slated for the presidential
visit. We feel honored and privileged by his interest in visiting us and will
certainly make every effort to ensure a beneficial press opportunity for him. Quite
simply, we base our company's success on the restored pride in America granted
by the Reagan/Bush administrations. Prior to their terms, our country lacked in
its self-esteem and competitiveness. It is our sincere belief that these two men,
through their strength and leadership, have brought back what is good about
being an American and have restored faith in the "American Dream." We fully
support President Bush in his re-election bid and wish to thank him for the
opportunity of success that has allowed Cabletron to become what it is today.

SUBJECT:
National Technology Initiative
As you know, Secretary Mosbacher and Secretary Watkins have
been developing plans for a National Technology Initiative (NTI)
which will bring together leaders in business and government to
forge new partnerships: partnerships between industry and our
world-renowned Federal Laboratories to bring new technologies to
the marketplace; partnerships between industry and the financial
community to ensure U.S. companies have access to the capital they
need for R&D and modern equipment; and partnerships between labor
and management to ensure that our industrial sector remains second
to none in the 21st century.
I have enclosed copies of a detailed description which
outlines the NTI, its goals, structure and themes and initial
sites. We have selected the Massachusetts Institute of Technology
(M.I.T.) in Cambridge, Massachusetts to be the site for the first
NTI which is tentatively scheduled for January 29-30.
In addition, I have enclosed a draft Presidential Statement
concerning the National Technology Initiative for your review and
evaluation.
We believe this initiative would create an excellent
opportunity for the President to highlight the Administration's
program to make industry more competitive and to create jobs and
foster economic growth. The President's announcement of this
initiative would truly have a major impact on its success.
Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact
Marc G. Stanley, Associate Deputy Secretary, 377-4625.
DRAFT
PRESIDENTIAL STATEMENT CONCERNING NATIONAL TECHNOLOGY INITIATIVE
We recognize the serious challenge that U.S. companies face
from foreign competitors. It is U.S. business which must meet
this challenge. However, the Federal government must find ways
to support the business community's efforts. As one means of
providing that support, our Federal departments and agencies are
launching the "National Technology Initiative" -- a coast-to-
coast series of town meetings bringing together business and
government leaders to discuss ways of partnering to enhance our
technological strengths and our global competitiveness.
The Departments of Commerce and Energy have joined forces to
take the lead in developing this initiative with industry and
have arranged the first such session at the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology in Cambridge, Massachusetts on January
30th, 1992. Similar programs will be held in all regions of the
country. I am asking all Federal departments and agencies to
become active participants with Commerce and Energy in this
effort.
Through such dialogues, we can begin to build new
partnerships between government and industry that will improve
our competitiveness and increase our economic prosperity. We
must not only encourage but assist industry in making better use
of our world-renowned Federal laboratories to help be first to
market with new technologies. We must also explore government-
-2-
industry cooperation to ensure that industry has access to the
capital needed for technological competitiveness.
Finally, we must create a national commitment to excellence
in our manufacturing industries through improved training for
both workers and management and through access for both small and
large businesses to the latest manufacturing technologies. By
working to build these partnerships we will be opening a new era
in relations between government and industry-- an era that will
greatly strengthen the economic well-being of all Americans and
our national global competitiveness.
