[0:00] If there is any.
[0:04] John Dean, please.
[0:05] Thank you.
[0:17] John Dean's office.
[0:18] Bob Haldeman, may I speak to him, please?
[0:30] Hello?
[0:31] John?
[0:31] Yes.
[0:32] This paper doesn't say anything about the thought of making sure we push this to cover all the stuff the Democrats did and, you know, backup cases we've been developing and everything.
[0:45] Is there any reason why the president shouldn't raise that with Baker?
[0:49] No, there isn't.
[0:50] The only thing is, we haven't developed much hard yet.
[0:55] For example, I had a memo from you regarding the communist money.
[0:58] We have no documentation of that sort of money ever having been involved by the McGovern people.
[1:03] Right.
[1:05] I just want to say that anything we can find can be passed along.
[1:12] And that obviously they should push their people that way, too.
[1:15] I mean, they don't have to just rely on what we can find.
[1:18] No.
[1:18] They should, for example, Dick Tuck.
[1:19] We know he was on the payroll of McGovern.
[1:24] Now, that's very interesting.
[1:26] That's the sort of thing that can be developed.
[1:28] Okay.
