CALIFORNIA 93101-5002 (AREA CODE 805) Sendastic Policy January 21, 1996 MS. Maggie Williams Chief of Staff to Hillary Clinton The White House then forward Real to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. Washington, D.C. 20500 Dear Ms. Williams: If you will remember in 1994 we had correspondence regarding Universal Health Care coverage, and I had suggested that a good approach would be to urge that the American public receive the same benefits as Congressmen. Subsequently, whether as the result of my suggestions or independently arrived at, Mrs. Clinton used this message, but it was too little, too late. I am therefore writing to you rather than the President (where my letter will merely be tabulated by a White House clerk) in the hopes that you will see that it receives seasoned consideration. There is much concern outside of Washington that the Presi- dent, now that he has been re-elected, will become more and more a captive of the monied interests. There are suggestions that the C.P.I. should be politically manipulated or that Medicare should be "means tested, thus creating a class distinction and placing Medicare in the same class as Medicaid. Whether these are trial balloons or otherwise is immaterial. What is clear to me and to many others outside of Washington is that if the President does not vigorously and openly fight for Social Security, Medicare and similar programs, the large numbers of people who voted for the President primarily on the grounds that he would protect them from corporate and inter-generational greed will feel betrayed. To be sure, the President no longer needs their votes, but it is likely that he will need their support as Congress and the Special Prosecutor continue with Whitewater, his civil sexual harassment suit, and similar crusades. If a large number of voters, and particularly the elderly, feel betrayed they certain- ly will not support the President in these matters which are now comparatively trivial and many will support the Republicans as they seek to crucify the President. Lack of public support, after all, was what brought Nixon down after Watergate. To put it another way, without this support, particularly if it turns to opposition, the Republicans will have a much easier task in discrediting the President. I hope that this will not happen, but I see indications that it may be on the way to happening. He must JAMES R. CHRISTIANSEN ATTORNEY AND COUNSELOR AT LAW Ms. Maggie Williams Chief of Staff to Hillary Clinton Page 2; January 27, 1997 not even be seen as considering abandoning the voters' reliance on him to protect them from the "barbarians." The public (Democrats, Republicans and Independents) are aware that money talks, that the individual's voice without money in not often heard, and that we have the best Congress money can buy. Their hope is that the President will not drop into that category. Unfortunately, recent revelations have shaken that hope. If the President were to come out strong for complete reform of campaign financing, he could overcome present criticism of him and lay the groundwork to become favorably known in his- tory. Disraeli, Prime Minister in England, did this when he cleaned-up the "rotten borough" method of Parliamentary election. Very sincerely yours, James R. Christiansen JRC:C JAMES R.

Step One for Isiah 58:12: Jay Sekulow of American Center of Law and Justice organization has an excellent method for the implementation of Isiah 58:12. Do not forget America was founded on Jewish - Christian Principals. AMERICAN CENTER LAW JUSTICE 1000 Hurricane Shoals Building B Suite 900 Lawrenceville, GA. 30243 Step two Isiah 58:12. Help Sudanese African Christian people. Please work with Dolores Williams, Anita Burson and Laija Eioba of the American Baptists Association, Bishop Paride Taban of Torit Catholic Sudan Africa. Please do all you can to help restore Christianity to Sudan the Original Christian country. Step Three for Isiah 58:12. Set up an African American shadow cabinet that gets things DONE. Appoint African Americans like Basil Paterson, Rev.Leon Sullivan, John H. Johnson, Andrew Young, Percy Sutton, Robert Johnson, Donald Walker, Earl Graves, Dorothy Heights. Like Ron Brown, they have roots and will get the job done in African American Community in a balanced way that will benefit ALL Americans in the end and send a clear and present message to President Clinton Black voters that he is serious about their CONCERNS NOW and the FUTURE. Future Benefits: President Clinton will have the ground work laid out for a third try for President or they will vote for Chelsea Clinton to be the first FEMALE President of America. Constructively and Informatively Yours in THE SPIRTI OF ISIAH 58:12.
