From IMDB:

Ronald Reagan

Date of birth (location) 6 February 1911 Tampico, Illinois, USA


In a point of interest, IMDB has someone named Jim Sheridan on their front page area for birthdays.

Figures.

Would you rather they put up Zsa Zsa (still alive like the guy picked by imdb) or Evan Braun (also deceased like RWR)?

Let's not look for hidden meanings.

I'd feel a lot better knowing he was on the job today:

John Lewis Gaddis has a new book out on the Cold War. He appeared at some event last Wednesday and it was rebroadcast on C-SPAN yesterday and earlier this morning. He had a lot of interesting points to make and spoke very respectfully of Ronald Reagan...called him a remarkable thinker and a grand strategist on the order of George F. Kennan or Henry Kissinger...the chief thinker in the Reagan Administration was Reagan himself.

Gaddis also agreed with the characterization of the late pope as "John Paul the Great" and quoted Stalin's line about "how many divisions does the pope have?"--the answer was that he didn't need any.

the chief thinker in the Reagan Administration was Reagan himself.

It is such an obvious statement if you know anything about Reagan. But leftist still like to portray Reagan as some kind of puppet who was ignorant about everything. Reagan might not have worried about every small detail, but Reagan certainly had full control of where he was guiding the ship.

I believe that later, in his memoirs... Churchill's answer to Stalin was “ ...but his followers are legion.”

Gosh, I wish I were that "ignorant"... Leftists portray him as such to their own peril - yet don't understand the damage they do themselves.
