POLITICAL ACTION MEMORANDUM
On the target list presented at the staff meeting the other day,
we omitted Catholic, ethnics, and old folks. Both of these are
much more important than Jewish or Black, which are listed as
targets.
We should forget about a massive effort with the Blacks. It's okay
to talk about it and cover it on a general public basis, but it is not
something that we should put any effort against, because it is counter-
productive.
