MEMORANDUM
May 19, 1971
TO:
Harry Flemming
Jeb Magruder
FROM:
Harry Dent
Within the last week, Bill Gifford (OMBE) and Ed Harper
(Domestic Council) have been out hunting for some data
of any kind that can provide some guidance as to what will
be most helpful for the President next year. They are con-
juring up programs, allocating monies, calling shots on
timing, etc., all pretty much in the dark in terms of how
to maximize the benefits for 1972. Obviously, these cumu-
lative decisions over the remaining months can have an
enormous impact.
The type of voter identification and analysis program that
Dick Richards and the Republican National Committee are
proposing might be the answer if workable. My only point
is that the need for a pretty sophisticated analysis that
would yield information like this would be very helpful now
in an enlightened practice of the Presidency, as well as
later when we court votes with conventional campaign methods.
I hope we can come up with something like this; and the sooner
the better.
