****** Central Theme we ought to push Pres. seriously weakened in recent years Restore power & auth to Exec Branch—Need strong leadership Get rid of War Powers Act—restore impoundment rights 2) Strong Cabinet & strong staff in WH Not “either or” proposition. Have to have both. 3) Orderly schedule & orderly paper flow is way you protect the Pres. Well designed system. Got to be brutal in scheduling decisions. Most valuable asset in D.C. is time of RR Need to have discipline & order & be discriminating *DON’T USE THE POLICY PROCESS TO IMPOSE YOUR POLICY VIEWS ON PRES.
