Pullen Files at the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library Ingham County Phone Bank, Lansing, Michigan, September 16, 1976 It seems just right to begin the fall campaign in Michigan among so many friends. I know how much the President wants to sweep this state and to see our long-time friend, Marvin Esch, elected to the Senate, and to have talented new Republican House members like Cliff Taylor. But no candidate can win without the help of volun- teers like you. The President and I married in the middle of his first Congressional campaign, and in all his races, I've had a special fondness for the behind-the-scenes worker whose dedication makes a victory. There's one special thing I hope you tell the voters about Jerry Ford he is a man to count on. After almost 28 years of a very happy marriage, I know that in everything he does he is a man of deep integrity. I believe the American people want to trust their President to keep his word. That's why with your help President Ford will be elected. -0- INGHAM COUNTY PHONE BANK LANSING, MICHIGAN SEPTEMBER 16,1976 Lansing Mich Phone Bank, 9/16/76 IT SEEMS JUST RIGHT TO BEGIN THE FALL CAMPAIGN 2 IN MICHIGAN AMONG SO MANY FRIENDS IKNOW HOW MUCH THE PRESIDENT WANTS 3 TO SWEEP THIS STATE AND TO SEE OUR LONG-TIME FRIEND.
