Rosalee - would you please forward this request to Ken. If he has some time
over the coming week or so to discuss by phone, I would also appreciate that opportunity. Ken - Though a mutual acquaintance, my CV has been provided to Bob Zoellick, in the hope and expectation that he might become USTR, and with an interest on my part in being nominated to be one of his deputies. I am writing to seek any support and assistance you feel comfortable in providing in this effort. I attach a copy of my CV below. I would particularly call attention to the fact that I served in the Department of Energy as a Deputy General Counsel in the administration of the first President Bush. While I obviously could not contribute much time to the campaign given my current assignment within Enron, I did contribute financially. My wife and I gave $2,000 to the campaign to fund the primary effort, $2,000 for the General Election, and another $2,000 to the Compliance Fund. I also wrote letters seeking funds (using your fund-raising number), and while I do not think the response rate was high, I do know that at least some of the people I wrote to did contribute. I have discussed this interest in the Deputy USTR role only with Steve Kean and Richard Shapiro within Enron. I expect that if Bob is nominated in the next few weeks, that I will be making a trip to Washington to meet with him, as part a trip associated with some other US business. (And if Bob is not the USTR, I will, of course, remain interested in the role.) When it is convenient, I would be pleased to discuss this further with you. Enjoy your holidays. Mark
