More From Alexander Haig

Back in 1980, the conservative movement was all-in for ronald reagan. once reagan won, they all wanted to be on the team. it was a landslide. everybody wants to bask in that glow. and then as the reagan years began, then the republicans, certain members of the party began to individually fall out and start talking about problems they had, secretly telling the media they thought reagan was a dunce and a danger to world peace, adopting the democrat line that reagan's finger on the nuclear button couldn't be trusted.

People President Would Be

Ronald reagan got a lot of democrats. i wish he hadn`t. i got to congress with reagan coming to the whitehouse. the reagan program, a very radical one, a very drastic one passed because he had a lot of democrats. he worked at it personally and also because reagan retained a popularity.

Political Mind Wish
You can't win all the contests and then lose at one contest and say, 'why am i not winning this contest as well?' it's random. so truthfully, again, do i wish it weren't me? absolutely. i still can't make that logistic jump to thinking there's a reason why it shouldn't be me.
