"Our task is to make them see that what we represent is identical to their own hopes and
dreams of what America can and should be. If there are questions as to whether the
principles of conservatism hold up in practice, we have the answers to them.

Where conservative principles have been tried, they have worked."

Ronald Reagan

"I know I've said this before, but I believe that God put this land between the two great oceans to be found by special people from every corner of the world who had that extra love for freedom that prompted them to leave their homeland and come to this land to make it a brilliant light beam of freedom to the world.

It's our gift to have visions, and I want to share that of a young boy who wrote to me shortly after I took office. In his letter he said, `I love America because you can join Cub Scouts if you want to. You have a right to worship as you please. If you have the ability, you can try to be anything you want to be. And I also like America because we have about 200 flavors of ice cream.'

Well, truth through the eyes of a child: freedom of association, freedom of worship, freedom of hope and opportunity, and the pursuit of happiness -- in this case, choosing among 200 flavors of ice cream -- that's America, everyone with his or her vision of the American promise.
That's why we're a magnet for the world: for those who dodged bullets and gave their lives coming over the Berlin Wall and others, only a few of whom avoided death, coming in tiny boats on turbulent oceans. This land, its people, the dreams that unfold here and the freedom to bring it all together -- well, those are what make America soar, up where you can see hope billowing in those freedom winds.

When our children turn the pages of our lives, I hope they'll see that we had a vision to pass forward a nation as nearly perfect as we could, where there's decency, tolerance, generosity, honesty, courage, common sense, fairness, and piety."

Ronald Reagan

"I don‘t know about you, but I am impatient with those Republicans who after the last election rushed into print saying,

“We must broaden the base of our party”

—when what they meant was to fuzz up and blur even more the differences between ourselves and our opponents.

It was a feeling that there was not a sufficient difference now between the parties that kept a majority of the voters away from the polls. When have we ever advocated a closed-door policy? Who has ever been barred from participating?

Our people look for a cause to believe in. Is it a third party we need, or is it a new and revitalized second party, raising a banner of no pale pastels, but bold colors which make it unmistakably clear where we stand on all of the issues troubling the people?"

"No one who lived through the Great Depression can ever look upon an unemployed person with anything by compassion.

To me, there is no greater tragedy than a breadwinner willing to work, with a job skill but unable to find a market for that job skill. Back in those dark depression days I saw my father on Christmas eve open what he thought was a Christmas greeting from his boss.

Instead, it was the blue slip telling him he not longer had a job.

The memory of him sitting there holding that slip of paper and then saying in a half whisper, 'That’s quite a Christmas present; it will stay with me as long as I live.’''

I'm so sorry! I had such a screwed-up day that started off awful with Fed-Ex delivering packages at the ungoldly hour of 8:00AM from retailers that my daughter ordered because she's coming to visit NEXT MONTH, so she buys and buys and sends her purchases here and my day didn't improve until I managed to talk myself out of a traffic ticket at 6:30PM on the "other side of town," with Louie in the car!
