Local resident Gordon Zacks, chairman of the board and chief executive officer of the R. G. Barry Corp., was among them. Zacks, a personal friend as well as political supporter of the vice president, was also a member of the pre-ad- vance planning team for the trip. "Because of the relationship I have with the vice president and the extensive experience I've had in the Middle East, he (Bush) asked me to help prepare for his trip," Zacks explained. As part of the pre-advance team,| he traveled to Israel, Jordan and Egypt to help determine the most appropriate things for Bush to see and do while there. Then ^when^the f trip firmed up, the vice president invited me and seven other supporters and friends in the Jewish community to accompany him on the Israel part of the trip — at our own expense," Zacks noted. Zacks' relationship with Bush began in 1979, when he served as deputy national chairman and vice president of national finance in Bush's bid for the Republican presidential nomination. Gordon Zacks Zacks' involvement in politics began even before that, however. He relates that on Yom Kippur, 1973, while raising funds for Israel on the bimah of his synagogue, he realized that far more than money at that moment, Jsrael, ^mbroUed in the Y&m Kippiir War, ne.eded "planes, ammunition, tanks ..: and the power was in the political arena, in Washington."
