 Good to see you. Good to see you. Good to see you. Good to see you. Good to see you. Well, nice to see you. Is he leaving from Australia? Hello there. Good to see you. Good to see you. Good to see you. President, I would like to thank you very much. The last time this group was together, we met. We had a very interesting conversation a few years ago. We were seeing you and we knew you were coming. And I wanted to leave a little paper about you. Just to say this to you. We do not ask for more than four more minutes. We believe there is a visit. We believe there is a visit. We believe there is a visit. We believe there is a visit. But the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union, in the case of the Sinked Courts and Flavors Foundation, of which promises. If they cannot keep those promises, they keep promises that are really vital to the national security. I believe me. We will never go for anything that does not include complete verification. I welcome this opportunity to say, while we are standing here, would you like to get a group picture? I will do that. I will do that. Let me tell you, if you get disturbed and you do not hear me publicly about some of these things, it is because I learned from a previous president, then you put them in a corner where, in the eyes of their own, they cannot give in because it looks like they are taking orders. I have found that around the back doors, you can do something and do it on the basis of saying, look, I won't mention it. But we need deeds, not words, that a deed would be this very thing. So what we are trying to do is from behind the scenes, where they cannot say we are out there publicly, that we are trying to interfere with their internal affairs. We aren't giving up on this. When I mentioned the previous president, he was one who, when Jewish immigration from Russia was nearly zero, he took Mr. Brezhnev aside and said, look, I have political problems at home. I have people influencing me. I cannot do some of the things that I might want to do or that you are talking about because of this. And by the end of that year, and you probably already know who I am talking about, Jewish immigration was up to about 35,000 a year. Well, I figured that success is something that we should try to emulate. But rest assured, we won't give the story away. I know, I accept there were not one thing they told us over and over again that they reserve the right to lie if it suits their purposes. So I'm going to... Who was it? There was a man some years ago, he was a clergyman, and he wrote a book and it was called You Can Trust the Russians. And what a man was, he read the book, you can trust him to do all those things they've talked about. I think we certainly appreciate this opportunity. Mr. Dolcey, as the chairman of the paper, just likes to say a word to you. Mr. President, we have made it here in Washington the National Consulate for Southern Jewry representing all the Jewish communities in the free world. And we've seen you not only the president of the United States, but dear leader of the free world. And we want to tell you how much we appreciate your support and your understanding, which is for us essential. So we just came to tell you thank you very much. And I would like to add one more point. The Russians are claiming wherever they met our secretary for the first Mr. Shamir, he said only Jews who wanted to live left. The fact is that during the last 12 years we have sent over from Israel 700,000 defendants. 700,000. Only 270,000 came out. Which means over 400,000. So I didn't want to use that undiplomatic word alive what you said. I'll read with you this paper which expresses our view that if you can't trust them on human rights, verify what you can't trust them on human rights. And as I say, don't believe that because you don't see me on shouting forth this in the paper, it's because I think that would be counterproductive to what you've done as a president. President, when I was here last year, drew me aside and told me about your father traveling and going number 20 in, and we called. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Well, let me respond to that one statement then. If I might, Mr. President. The gentleman here too down on your right had just said that they represented the low-income groups and was particularly interested in the provisions of the proposal that dealt with those. And I just finished saying that one of the things you said as far back as February 6th, the State of the Union, that you wanted to see all families at or near the priority line taking off the tax rolls. And having said that, you know, you felt very strongly about it. And I might also say that as you know, taxpayers under a certain level get an 18.3% reduction, as opposed to a 7.2% for those in the so-called middle range and a 5.8% for those up at the top. So they get the most significant percentage reduction for those up at the top. That's a significant percentage reduction. And again, that's one of the real elements of the tax. We're almost doubling the allowance for, maybe you've told them that, the dependence. And then we're going for the exemption of $4,000. So a family of four or a couple of people working would actually have $12,000 tax free. Well, I hate being corrupt here. You've got to have such signals or something. I just come in the door because the clock said that. Well, I want you to know how much I appreciate all your efforts to achieve genuine tax reform for the American people. Your efforts are crucial to the success of our tax reform. It'll happen, but only if the voice of the American people is heard above those of the special interests. And that's not always easy to achieve. The special interests can be often noisy in their nearer at hand. They've been pouring tremendous resources into this fight already. And this month it's our turn to bring the tax reform message to the American people. Our current tax system, maybe I'll say something Jim has already said and this is one of the charges that's anti-family and assault on personal initiative and to discourage a certain enterprise and productive investment. We all know those things about the present income tax code. The status quo and I certainly repeat to you I told some kids on the campus the other day that that's a Latin term for the mess we're in. It's a highly complicated maze of loopholes and regulations which permitted almost 30,000 people with incomes of over $250,000 in 1983 to pay virtually nothing at all in taxes while the working families in this country have seen their tax burden grow heavier. You and I can change this sad state of affairs. We're going to achieve genuine tax reform and in so doing we're going to bring about a new decade of economic expansion which will return economic power to people and families who've been without it for a few generations. By bringing a new fairness for families into the tax code by lowering personal and corporate rates and by again cutting the capital gains tax we can unleash the entrepreneurial spirit of America. I want to emphasize something I know you recognize and on which we agree. Our fight for tax reform this time is not a partisan battle. Recently the House Select Committee on Children, Youth and Families reported that our tax reform plan was the most profanity of all the tax proposals before Congress. The committee said it is fair to low income working families, fair to large families, single parent families, and average income families and that assessment of our reforms didn't just come from Republicans on the committee. It came from the Democratic majority on that committee also. Our program is fashion for all Americans. I can give you no better demonstration of that today than the existence of your coalition itself comprised of leaders from the corporate sector, business community, fraternal organizations, neighborhood enterprise associations, and those who work to strengthen family life in our country. You express the hope and conviction of all Americans. I think that we can have a tax code which is simple, fair, and which promotes a growing and dynamic economy. I appreciate all that you've done that you will be doing for America. And there aren't any words to express my appreciation for you being here today. I love you. How optimistic are you? I'm glad you're back. I'm glad you're back. I see you got your glasses. I don't know what you're in here for. Well, I know that. I wouldn't have said that. Listen, I'm not going to take the time. I just got held up with a phone call I don't know if I'm going to be on this except I'll be welcome to back, but say I improve very highly of the way you handle the suggestion you made about what could be done in regard to the orange limitation. He hasn't offered that to the boys in Geneva yet, but I thought you'd handle it very well. And I'm waiting to hear from the viewers and the gentlemen what you have to say. Because we are engaged in very thorough preparation for this trip, as you know we talk to you, some parlance, Secretary Schultz, Secretary Weinberger, and you are kind to ask that we leave you with this before I return. So let me say once again that this delegation is the third senior group of senators, bipartisan senators who have leading roles in the Senate's consideration of arms control and defense policy matters. We met with the federal secretary of government on three hours and 35 minutes, because that was not a simultaneous interpretation, sequential, which I'm going to double the time to go to the front first. Then I met a statement that had been prepared by the entire delegation and agreed to about it. The reason we did that was because we wanted to ensure that all of the points we wanted to make. I'm so glad you asked enough. I'm so glad you asked enough. Well, I'm glad you also met her for this mission and not only what it did with regard to technology, but what it did here with regard to our friendship, others. And you are in this mission here. You are the first in the Arab world to be an astronaut. I'm very honored to be here. Thank you very much, sir. I have to report that. When I went back home, we had quite a resumption, and all the people are extremely appreciative of the opportunity that the U.S. students, before I put myself into it, told me that as a matter of fact that I showed them some video tapes with the attention we got, way beyond what we expected. So everybody has a lot of good love for this country and its people. And we thank you for the opportunity. You're welcome. Thank you. It's a small talk, you know. It's Christmas, you know. This is amended, and it's simple as an actual application. You can read on this book. It's an old navigation tool that was amended with a trace navigation tool. We did not use it to navigate in space. It's true. It was a gift inspiration. It's you and the President with our best wishes. Well, thank you very much. And also the book. If you have any time during your busy schedule that we're taking last, I will. Believe me, I will. I'll make time. And at the same time, also, when you go to your lunch, you sound to love that. I thought you liked the rest of my t-shirts. We have made some t-shirts of the logo that we throw in the showcase. We're putting flags today. And of course, I'll be with you later, right? Pat. Well, thank you very much. And those special, uh, flight jackets and all the logos there. So we flag and all the other flags and a few other things. And I'd like to continue with the best wishes for good health. Well, thank you very much. I assure you that our use of these, we had no hurry with that before. You're a horse, though. No, not that basically. Well, I thank you very much. And again, which I'd say I'm very pleased with this and how this mission is doing. Not only technologically, as I said before, but with regard to the friendship between the steels, our nations, and what we do. Thank you very much. I have this today. Appreciate the opportunity to put down for you this evening. That's right. Yes, sir. This is our number one staff column. That's yes, too. Well, I thank you very much. Yes, I will. Thank you. Very nice meeting you. Nice to meet you. Thank you. Okay. Thank. Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you. Yeah, I'm wearing foreign shoes. They're the best shoes at the best price. I don't know why we should protect history. Wait and see. I'm wearing foreign shoes. And I'm proud of them. They're late. They're late. They're late. Mr. President, has the tax reform now taken a back seat? Do you think to the priorities regarding trade protections and trade legislation? Well, I'm not going to take any questions here, but I think the obvious answer to anything of that kind, and I'm not going to say any more than this is there is no front seat, back seat with any of these that are all major issues that have to be resolved. All right. Hey, hey, hey. Hey, hey, hey. Hey, hey, hey. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you very much. You're welcome. You're always nice to see you. They're in that good tip. I need your call. Mr. President, we think about our citizenship in the stock market in black. Any response? Mr. President, thank you. Thank you. Is everything all right? They don't mind. I think as you can see by the beginning just now with the cameras in here that this is going to be a hectic fall season. For all of us in its imperative I think that we work together as Republicans to develop responsible legislation to deal with many issues that are facing us this fall. We can expect that our friends on the other side of the aisle to play more and more politics as they look to next year's elections. I think we have proven the best politics for Republicans is working together to produce positive results for the American people. I welcomed the 34 votes in the Senate on Monday on a poacher from the South African legislation. I know that you have another vote this afternoon and I firmly believe the executive order measures are the way to go. To aim at apartheid and not the economy in general which would not foster conditions necessary for fiscal reform if we all want that. So I hope the 34 is still there. I hope with the return of additional members of the Senate before this vote that there will be additional votes added to the 34. I respect and share the goals that motivated many in Congress to send a message of U.S. concern about apartheid but in so doing we mustn't damage the economic well-being of millions of people in South Africa, the very ones that we're trying to help. And we can't ignore the fact that with all of our complaints at present they have the highest living standard of any of the black states that have been created over there. We can expect the Democrats to continue efforts to force a floor vote on the conference report. And their primary goal clearly is to embarrass the administration and the Republican leadership in the Congress on this issue. And I think we can stick together in the poacher vote even more importantly on our ability to sustain a veto if it comes to that. Now this sets a good example of how we can work together and we can probably keep that policy where it should be here at the White House. And how together we can consult and work to shape up the foreign policy that strengthens the U.S. and is consistent with our national values and goals. Right now I'm going to ask, but if you guys indeed would like to add on this. I think we're going to ask. Yes, indeed. Now that means that I don't want favoritity ducks and I want to do it cash, so that's what I do there. All right, that's it. Very good. You've done this before. Practice. You want now my name. Yes, sir. I appreciate this very much. The first one and you now launched our campaign as president. It's going to be very exciting. We're going over the $20 million mark this year, right? $20.5 million first time and this is almost a 10% increase over last year, which was the best year ever. We're not going to save you. That's a way to do it. The pledge and the check, the follow-through. Wonderful. Yes indeed, we appreciate it. It's not like that gentleman who told us about a couple of years ago who the town went to to raise the money is from. He hasn't given it to anybody. Imagine how good he would be if he didn't give it to anybody. His brother, the war veteran and so forth. I don't think anything to him. Why should I give that to you? That's what I'm going to say. Well, we appreciate this very much. Thank you for launching us here. We're off and running. Thank you very much, Mr. President. Thank you, sir. Thank you very much. Good to see you again. Thank you, sir.
