Bush meeting with high-tech council JIM VERTUNO, Wednesday July 19, 8:53 am Associated Press Writer AUSTIN, Texas (AP)???Gov. George W. Bush wants to compare notes on issues ranging from Internet privacy, to cyber crime to closing the so-called ``digital divide'' that sometimes leaves minority households behind in the computer age during a planned Wednesday meeting with technology leaders. About 130 members of the Bush campaign's 350-member high-tech council, including Dell Computer Corp. chairman Michael Dell, were scheduled to meet behind closed doors at Austin's Jewish Community Center.?. . ``I am excited about all of the opportunities that technology has given us to make a profound and positive impact on the world,'' said Bush, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee. ``America is a pioneer in the high-tech industry and it is vital for us to maintain this status,'' Bush said. '' Leading the world in innovation will not only improve the lives of Americans, but will also create many quality jobs.'' The purpose of the meeting was to allow the group to present Bush with their thoughts and share up-to-the minute information on the issues, said Bush campaign spokesman Tucker Eskew. The campaign also was to unveil its revamped Web site. One of its features will allow users to download event-specific posters or placards for campaign events. ? ? - USATodayAd-Bush NSC.pdf
