Many compare...most don’t.

Big difference is that Reagan worked his tail off from about 1974 until the convention in 1980 to earn the nomination. He didn't play coy, jump in sometime after Labor Day in 1979 and expect the nomination to be handed to him.

I've never heard Fred's Radio show. When was it? How long did it last? It was Reagan's Radio Show (more than anything else) that won me over. Those were dark days from the time Nixon resigned in disgrace until Jimmy Carter left office just as the Iran hostages left Tehran.

I was working two jobs to get through college or just to get by. Reagan's Radio Show came on just as I was driving to my 6 to midnight night shift . . . then it was home to sleep until 6 a.m. when I got up for my day job and classes between.
