____________________________ DC CONFIDENTIAL June 6, 2004 ____________________________ THE SHINING CITY OVER THE RAINBOW “We kept faith with a promise as old as this land we love and as big as the sky, a brilliant vision of America as a shining city on a hill. Thanks to all of you, and with God’s help, America’s greatest chapter is still to be written, for the best is yet to come.” - Ronald Reagan, 12/1/88 Thank you, President Reagan. There will never be another like you. REMEMBERING REAGAN In tribute, we’ve posted excerpts from an interview Ronald Reagan did with Reason magazine way back in 1975 which really gives you an insight into his political thinking, including this priceless gem: “I don’t believe in a government that protects us from ourselves.” Putting it in other words, he defends “one of our sacred rights – to be stupid.” In this extensive and wide-ranging interview, Reagan discusses what he saw as the differences between the libertarian and conservative philosophies, the proper function of government, his opposition to motorcycle helmet laws, federal involvement in education, taxes, the United Nations and whether or not he could vote for a Libertarian Party candidate for president.
