Today is the anniversary of the death of President Reagan.
Go watch Mr. Politics's video tribute to the life of this remarkable man and have a nice cry.
I also want to send out a little prayer for, and say thank you to, Nancy Reagan.
She could have tried to keep her husband all to herself, but instead shared him with our People and supported him in all his goals.
President Reagan once said that if he had decided to be a shoe salesman like his father, that Nancy would have been there helping him to sell shoes.
She surely would have.
Without Nancy, there could have been no Reagan legacy. So remember her on this day and be glad that her tremendous love and support helped bring such a great American as Ronald Reagan to the world stage.

Interesting that you would have picked out Nancy for her contributions - I recall that the Dems just hated her. With a passion. Maybe because she so clearly adored her husband.

Even as a young Democrat in college, I thought the news media were treating her like crap.
