RE: Speaking Invitation
The Federalist Society
Washington, D.C.
6 - 7 November 1987
You have been invited by Zbigniew Brzezinski on behalf of the Federalist
Society to be the luncheon speaker on Saturday, 7 November at their symposium
on "Foreign Affairs and the Constitution: The Roles of Congress, the
President, and the Court." As an alternative, you are invited to be a member
of the panel on the First Amendment and National Security on Friday,
6 November at 3:45 p.m. Floyd Abrams a lawyer from New York and a specialist
on the First Amendment also will participate. You could expect an audience of
300 - 400 lawyers and foreign policymakers. The event would be covered by the
media. The symposium will present a scholarly discussion of the legal and
constitutional issues involved in the area of foreign affairs and covert
actions. Appearing on other panels will be Attorney General Edwin Meese,
Lloyd Cutler, Irving Kristol, Abe Sofaer, John Norton Moore, Ralph Winter,
Richard Perle and Eugene Rostow and possibly Ambassador Jeane Kirkpatrick.
According to The National Law Journal, the Federalist Society has a
membership of 4,5 and is a "conservative/libertarian organization composed
primarily of law students and faculty."
Since your schedule is heavily committed for this period of time, I do not
believe you should accept another engagement or give up your Saturday. If you
agree, attached is a letter of regret for your signature.

Dear Dr. Brzezinski:
Thank you for the invitation to speak at the luncheon for the Federalist
Society Symposium or participate on one of the panels November 6th or 7th in
Washington, D.C. I regret that my schedule could not be juggled to fit with
your conference dates and I must decline the honor. Perhaps we can work out
something for another time. I am sure your symposium on "Foreign Affairs and
the Constitution: The Roles of Congress, the President, and the Court" will
be a challenge to your participants and I too would have enjoyed the exercise.
Many thanks for your appearance at the Agency. Your presentation
certainly received many compliments.
Sincerely yours,
William H. Webster

Dear Judge Webster:
I am writing to invite you to join me as a speaker at a
conference on "Foreign Affairs and the Constitution: The Roles of
Congress, the President, and the Court," sponsored by the
Federalist Society. The symposium will present a scholarly
discussion of the legal and constitutional issues involved in the
area of foreign affairs and covert actions, and it will reflect a
variety of viewpoints. The symposium will be held in
Washington, D.C., on November 6 and 7. Those who have already
agreed to participate include Ambassador Jeane Kirkpatrick,
Attorney General Edwin Meese, Lloyd Cutler, Irving Kristol, Abe
Sofaer, John Norton Moore, Ralph Winter, and Eugene Rostow.
The symposium will address the following topics:
- The first panel will examine the President's
powers as Commander-in-Chief vs. Congress'
War Power and Appropriations Power.
- The second will consider the Treaty Power and
executive powers to interpret and terminate
treaties and enter into executive agreements,
as well as the proper scope of "advice and
consent" in this context.
- The third will review the First Amendment and
National Security. It will inquire into what
special consideration or exemptions national
security interests require in defining the scope
of First Amendment rights. It will also examine
what the proper structure is for resolving this
issue, i.e., who judges?
- The fourth panel will address what the
Constitution means by executive power and
whether it means only the execution of the laws
or encompasses some of the residual powers of
the King of England as well. It will also
consider whether the President enjoys greater

discretion in exercising his executive pr,ers.ir
conducting foreign policy than in performing his
other functions, and whether the appropriate scope
of congressional oversight differs in examining
executive actions undertaken in this, as opposed
to other, fields. Finally, it will consider the
political question doctrine and the role envisaged
for the courts in this area.
- The last panel will explore the virtues and
vices of democracy in general, and of American-
style democracy in particular, in conducting
foreign affairs.
We hope the conference will contribute to understanding the
role the Constitution establishes for each branch of our
government in the conduct of foreign affairs, and how the
government as a whole should operate. The proceedings of the
symposium will be published in a major law review.
I enclose a brochure briefly describing the Federalist
Society. Thank you for your consideration, and I very much hope
that you will be able to-participate.
Sincerely,
Zbigniew Brzezinski
Symposium Chairman
