Giuliani and the White House

New York Times - 4/7/2006

After four years of enjoying private life, former Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani is taking several steps that could lay the groundwork for a presidential bid, strengthening alliances with Republicans nationwide and especially with conservative leaders of the party.

Mr. Giuliani's advisers say he will decide around the end of the year whether to seek the Republican nomination for president in 2008.
