TM article written by the wicked liberal press Former President Ronald Reagan turned 92 on Thursday, February 6, 2003. One of the most popular presidents (and the longest-lived), Reagan has been living in near isolation since revealing to the world in 1994 that he was suffering from Alzheimer's disease. A busy Hollywood player, Ronald Reagan made more than fifty movies as a supporting actor and leading man in his heyday. When his film career slowed in the 1950s, the actor turned to television productions for steady employment. From 1950 until the mid-sixties, Ronald Reagan could be seen frequently on anthology programs like 'Ford Theatre,' 'Schlitz Playhouse of the Stars' and 'Kraft Suspense Theatre.' In 1953, he was tapped to be the MC of ABC's 'The Orchid Award,' then moved over to hosting General Electric Theater on CBS weekly from 1954-1962. He gave up the acting profession to serve as the governor of California from 1966-75 and then president from 1980-1988. Many people remember that Ronald Reagan was also the host of ' Death Valley Days ', a syndicated western anthology show, from 1965-66. (This caused some controversy as his opponent in the Governor's race felt this weekly TV exposure gave Reagan an unfair advantage.)

Clinton E-Texts Outline of American History: Toward the 21st Century Statistical Abstract of the United States Fact Sheet Shifts in the structure of American society, begun years or even decades earlier, had become apparent by the time the 1980s arrived. The composition of the population and the most important jobs and skills in American society had undergone major changes. The dominance of service jobs became undeniable. The 1965 reform in immigration policy shifted the focus away from Western Europe, and the number of new arrivals from Asia and Latin America increased. For many Americans, the economic, social and political trends of the previous two decades, engendered a mood of disillusionment. After 26 consecutive years of Democratic control, the Republicans gained a majority in the Senate in 1980 and Republican Ronald Reagan was elected president. The central theme of Reagan's domestic policy was that the federal government had become too big and federal taxes too high. In foreign policy, President Reagan sought a more assertive role for the nation. In relations with the Soviet Union, President Reagan's declared policy was one of peace through strength. During his first term, the administration increased spending on defense expenditures. After the reelection in 1984, Reagan softened his rigid position on arms control.

69. THE HUMAN LIFE REVIEW president ronald reagan's famous essay. http://www.humanlifereview.com/reagan/reagan_conscience.html

ABOUT THE HUMAN LIFE REVIEW ABOUT THE ... HOME Abortion and the Conscience of the Nation Ronald Reagan Ronald Reagan, while sitting as the fortieth president of the United States, sent us this article shortly after the tenth anniversary of Roe v. Wade; we printed it with pride in our Spring, 1983 issue, and reprint it now, after Roe's twentieth anniversary, just as proudly. The 10th anniversary of the Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade is a good time for us to pause and reflect. Our nationwide policy of abortion-on-demand through all nine months of pregnancy was neither voted for by our people nor enacted by our legislators— not a single state had such unrestricted abortion before the Supreme Court decreed it to be national policy in 1973. But the consequences of this judicial decision are now obvious: since 1973, more than 15 million unborn children have had their lives snuffed out by legalized abortions. That is over ten times the number of Americans lost in all our nation's wars. Make no mistake, abortion-on-demand is not a right granted by the Constitution. No serious scholar, including one disposed to agree with the Court's result, has argued that the framers of the Constitution intended to create such a right. Shortly after the

71. Ronald Reagan... Tampico, Illinois Birthplace and boyhood home of the former president. Official site that features stories of his youth. Born February 6, 1911, in a flat above the local bank. http://www.ronaldreagan.com/tampico.html

OFFICIAL SITE TAMPICO, ILL. I was born February 6, 1911, in a flat above the local bank in Tampico, Illinois. According to family legend, when my father ran up the stairs and looked at his newborn son, he quipped: "He looks like a fat little Dutchman. But who knows, he might grow up to be president some day." During my mother's pregnancy, my parents had decided to call me Donald. But after one of her sisters beat her to it and named her son Donald, I became Ronald. I never thought "Ronald" was rugged enough for a young red-blooded American boy and as soon as I could, I asked people to call me "Dutch." That was a nickname that grew out of my father's calling me "the Dutchman" whenever he referred to me. M y delivery, I was told, was a difficult one and my mother was informed that she shouldn't have any more children. So that left four of us - Jack, Nelle, and my brother, Neil, who had been born two years earlier. In high school, my brother had a teammate on the football team, Winston McReynolds, who was his closest buddy and they were so inseparable the other players began referring to Neil as "Moon" and Winston as "Mushmouth" - the names of the two lead characters in the "Moon Mullins" comic strip. Neil's nickname stuck and, from then on, about the only person who ever called him Neil was my mother. M y dad - his name was John Edward Reagan but everyone called him Jack - was destined by God, I think, to be a salesman. His forebears had come to America from County Tipperary by way of England during Ireland's potato famine and he was endowed with the gift of blarney and the charm of a leprechaun. No one I ever met could tell a story better than he could. Nelle Wilson Reagan, my mother, was of Scots-English ancestry. She met and fell in love with my father shortly after the turn of the century in one of the tiny farm towns that were planted on the Illinois prairie by pioneers as they moved westward across the continent during the nineteenth century. They were married in Fulton, Illinois, about forty miles from Dixon, in 1904.

BACK TO NRO Her real legacy. By Ronald Reagan, the 40th president of the United States From the May 19, 1989, issue of National Review Printer-Friendly E-mail a Friend One billboard in Britain this election day has Conservative William Hague drawn with Margaret Thatcher-like hair. The words: "Be afraid. Be very afraid." And so NRO goes to Ronald Reagan for a more accurate take on Lady Thatcher from an article the president wrote in a May 1989 issue of National Review ome years ago, while I was still Governor of California, I was invited to address a large meeting of business leaders in London. Upon arrival, I met another American and longtime friend, the late Justin Dart. The British Conservative Party had just elected Margaret Thatcher Leader of the Party. She was the first woman to hold that position and, if the Conservative Party actually won an election, she would automatically become Prime Minister. That, too, would be a first. Justin knew the Thatchers and arranged a meeting for me with the new Party Leader. I shall be forever grateful. We found there were great areas of agreement on the economy and government's proper role with regard to the private sector. That first meeting in her office lasted the better part of an hour and a half.

He was the Great Communicator, the Gipper and the leader of the Reagan Revolution. In an era of collective mistrust of the political system and the people who ran it, Reagan swept to power with an unprecedented share of the electoral vote in 1980. His famous pledge to restore confidence in America and the government became the mission statement of his administration.

Ronald Wilson Reagan rode to the presidency in 1980 on a tide of resurgent right-wing sentiment among an electorate longing for a distant, simpler era. He left office in Jan. 1989 with two-thirds of the American people approving his performance during his two terms. It was the highest rating for any retiring president since World War II. Reagan earned a BA degree in 1932 from Eureka (Ill.) College, where a photographic memory aided in his studies and in debating and college theatricals. During the Depression, he made $100 a week as a sports announcer for radio station WHO in Des Moines, Iowa. His career as a film and TV actor stretched from 1937 to 1966, and his salary climbed to $3,500 a week. As a World War II captain in army film studios, Reagan recoiled from what he saw as the laziness of civil service workers, and moved to the Right. As president of the Screen Actors Guild, he resisted what he considered a Communist plot to subvert the film industry. With advancing age, Reagan left leading-man roles and became a television spokesman for the General Electric Company.

Teddy Roosevelt V.I. Lenin Margaret Sanger Mao Zedong ... Nelson Mandela Ronald Reagan He brought Big Government to its knees and stared down the Soviet Union. And the audience loved it BY PEGGY NOONAN lare Boothe Luce famously said that each President is remembered for a sentence: "He freed the slaves"; "He made the Louisiana Purchase." You have to figure out your sentence, she used to tell John Kennedy, who would nod thoughtfully and then grouse when she left. Ronald Reagan knew, going in, the sentence he wanted, and he got it. He guided the American victory in the cold war. Under his leadership, a conflict that had absorbed a half-century of Western blood and treasure was endedand the good guys finally won. It is good to think of how he did it, because the gifts he brought to resolving the conflict reflected very much who he was as a man. He began with a common-sense conviction that the Soviets were not a people to be contained but a system to be defeated. This put him at odds with the long-held view of the foreign-policy elites in the '60s, '70s and '80s, but Reagan had an old-fashioned sense that Americans could do any good thing if God blessed the effort. Removing expansionary communism from the world stage was a right and good thing, and why would God not smile upon it? He was a historical romantic, his biographer Edmund Morris says, and that's about right. He was one tough romantic, though. When Reagan first entered politics, in 1964, Khrushchev had already promised to bury the U.S., Sputnik had been launched and missiles placed in Cuba. It seemed reasonable to think the Soviets might someday overtake the West. By the time Reagan made a serious run for the presidency, in 1976, it was easy to think the Soviets might conquer America militarily.
