MEMORANDUM THE WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON June 10, 1971 MEMORANDUM FOR: CHUCK COLSON FROM: HARRY DENT POSD Lee Nunn is taking over the project of organizing a committee of ex-senators for the President. He would like to make former Senator Bourke Hickenlooper the chairman. He says he has plenty of time on his hands and is in the Washington area all the time. He also suggests we get together a committee of former governors. Also, he is going to increase the list of former senators to include a number of others not mentioned in the memo. If we want the ex-governors committee formed, we need to let him know that also. CC: Bob Haldeman B DETERMINED TO BE AN ADMINIS LNG E.O. 120. 6-102 By Ep 3.10.82 Personal & Confidential June 16, 1971 MEMORANDUM FOR: THE HONORABLE JOHN MITCHELL FROM: LEE NUNN SUBJECT: FORMER SENATORS, FORMER GOVERNORS FOR THE PRESIDENT It has been suggested by the White House that the political apparatus should be visiting with former senators who could perhaps form a Senators for Nixon Re-election Committee. This could be done if you feel it advisable. It should be possible to form a similar committee of ex-governors. Senator Hickenlooper would be a prospective organizer of the senators. Then, too, his former Director of the Republican Policy Committee, Fred Rhodes, No. 2 man at the Veterans Administration, might be helpful to such a project. If you approve, what would be your thoughts on timing and organization?
