### Republican Party Profile
King developed a prominent profile within Nebraska and national Republican Party circles during the 1980s. He chaired the Nebraska Black Republican Council and served as vice chairman for finance of the National Black Republican Council, an affiliate of the Republican National Committee. In January 1985 he was an advisory committee member for President [[Ronald Reagan]]'s second inauguration; his participation is documented in Reagan Presidential Library records (reaganlibrary.gov/public/2023-10/40-819-198416-K-LawrenceKingJr-002-2023.pdf). He performed the national anthem at the 1984 Republican National Convention in Dallas; the performance is archived by C-SPAN (c-span.org/clip/public-affairs-event/user-clip-larry-king-sings-gop-convention-1984/4814862). He hosted parties at the 1988 Republican National Convention in New Orleans at an estimated cost of $100,000.[^1]

### Connection to Craig Spence
Contemporary Washington Times reporting connected King to [[Craig Spence]], a Washington D.C. lobbyist documented in June-November 1989 journalism to have arranged late-night White House tours with male prostitutes and to have maintained connections in Republican Party social circles.
