Jami wants to go with no backbenchers. She has briefed the Vice President a lot and Libby attends
the twice weekly deputies lunch that she attends with the DDCI.

Hi
The last time the VP and Libby came over for a session, I jumped in on (only) one occasion
because an answer he got to a question he raised barely got at the tip of an iceberg of an
issued he'd discussed with me at least three times. I asked a follow-up question I am
certain prompted the information for which he was fishing.
and I have a grasp of the VP's and Libby's interests�and their body language--no
one else in the room will have other than them. This context makes us useful to them and
to our colleagues here as we subsequently interpret how the session went.
Please flag my thoughts with the MI and zing nd me an update email (earlyish if
you can) regarding whether she'd still prefer to go with no back-benchers.

Hi
(b)(3)
(b)(6)
1. It's my recommendation
that we have only one briefing team in the room at a time.
2. and I plan
to back bench through both sessions, leaving the VP's group,
(b)(3)
the MI, and the brief
ers at the table.
(b)(6)
But of course the vote that
matters on all of
this (including briefers' names) goes to the
MI's office and others.
-over to you.

Thanks I'll start working on that. I need to know about how many people will be in and out of there
throughout the briefings so we can order the appropriate amount. We'll probably just go with some fruit,
cookies and drinks.
That brings up another subject. Will this be done like in the past where we have the actual briefers and
"back benchers". Will all the briefers be in the C.R. for the whole time, or will the second set be "waiting in
the wings" in the hallway? I'll need a list of all briefers and also back benchers as in the past so we can
do tent cards for them.
Thanks!

Hi
Refreshments would be a great idea; you'll make a friend for life if you lay a Starbucks
latte (grande skim/decaf) on the VP. Really. Same for Libby.

Would you like refreshments for the VP's visit on Wednesday? If so, I'll work with the ADR in getting that
provided. We know he likes Starbucks coffee, so we'll have that ready for him and Mr. Libby when they

Hi
The strawman has not evolved; it still represents the planned showtime. I recommend not
sending over all the detail in the strawman--the VP knows what's coming. You could
probably get away with for the agenda. If the VP's
handlers need more, I'll offer to draft and email the essence of both sessions in
shortened versions of the strawman (to convey to the VP he's getting what he asked for).

The call .with the VP's office was short and this sounds like the coordination will be easy
(since we just did this a few months ago). She confirmed that the visit will be 02 October
from 1400-1600 hrs. She asked that we send over a fax today with a list of briefers
names and titles for the two sessions. Can you get th 9 Do you have a draft
agenda worked up as well that can go over. I've seenrUcLiniestrawman, but don't know if
it has evolved, or if you'd prefer not to give them all that detail in advance. I can fax
anything over to her that should/can go.
I gave her my name and number as the POC, but let her know that DI, OS, Protocol, and
others were hard at work on the issue as well, and that I could put her office in contact
with any of you she needs. Please send me green and black lines for POC's in DI, OS,
Protocol, and anyone I've forgotten. Thanks.
