Mr. Ball.
Yes, sir.
I just wanted to be sure that Warren hasn't gone out on a limb and indicated that I definitely am going to attend this service.
He's holding off on that, Mr. President.
Remember, as I told you, I'm keeping that open.
Yes, sir.
Because something might come up.
I might get a cold or some darn thing.
Just be sure he knows that he's not to announce that I'm going to the service.
And we had talked about that, and he was going to check with you, or one of us was going to check before any announcement was made.
Yeah, yeah.
And we'll see that thing on that direction.
All right, sir.
Because I think there's something, there's a possibility that having gone out there myself, you know, gone out and paid my respects, you know, at the memorial, the memorial in the nation's capital for congressmen, senators, and others.
I'm not very sure that it's necessary.
I would hope that we could come up with a good reason.
Well, I don't think we need a reason.
We just say that the vice president's going to 10.
That's right.
Mr. President, with regard to the vice president, did you want him at the bipartisan breakfast on Friday?
I know that question is sent in.
Yes, yes, yes, he should be there.
All right, sir.
Mansfield at 3.30, do you want him in the EOB or the Oval Office?
The Oval Office, sir.
Fine.
Thank you.
