Dear?Jeff,
?
Greetings from Austin.? On behalf of Governor Bush, it is my pleasure to
invite you to join?the Governor's IT National Steering Committee.??You have

a valuable addition to the group.? The three requirements for joining are:

The group was formed last fall and is composed primarily of technology
leaders (Michael Dell, John Chambers, Floyd Kvamme, Gordon Moore, Jim
Barksdale,?Scott McNealy, plus many others).??NSC members are Republicans,
Democrats, and Independents who support Governor Bush.??
?
In July, the group met here in Austin to discuss burning issues in the
technology community and to share them with Governor Bush in a private
meeting(the AP wire story describing the event is at bottom).??To give you
a better idea of the nature and composition of the group, I have attached a
pdf file?of an?April ad?that ranin USA Today?that includes?a declaration of
support by NSC members for Governor Bush.
?
If you are interested in joining the NSC, please provide the following:

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions.? As we come closer
to the election, we are focusing primarily?on recruiting new members to join
the NSC and?keeping members abreast and plugged into campaign events and
policy matters, especially those that relate to New Economy and technology
issues.
?
Best regards,
?
Price Roe
on behalf of Dr. Bill Rice
?
P.S.? I recently graduated from?HBS and think it would be great to?get
another highly accomplished HBS?alum like you on board in support of the

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.
