 Georgia delegation and other delegations, we need to devise a pragmatic system for learning who the delegates are to the Charter Conference and having an appropriate Carter advocate make contact with them at the Conference. We are beginning to get lists of the state delegations and develop profiles on each delegate that would take into consideration age, sex, race and past political affiliation. For example, we will give Joel Solomon (the young man from Tennessee who works for us at the DNC and is a delegate to the Conference) profiles on 14-20 other young delegates. His job will be to seek out these young delegates, get to know them, talk to them about Jimmy Carter and maybe get those that respond favorably together to talk with you. Bebe Smith would be assigned people she met and knew in McGovern campaign, Jesse Hill would contact blacks, etc. I think it is absolutely essential that we organize and take this approach if we hope to make the best use of our friends who go to Kansas City.
