The First Reagan Democrat...Was Reagan (1622 hits)

This archived radio broadcast of aliberal Democrat by the name of Ronald Reagan campaigning for President Truman, as well as soon-to-be liberal lion Hubert H. Humphrey, presents an important lesson to Democrats everywhere.

In the radio address, the Gipper is:

- For wage growth

- For Social Security

- For union and fair employment practices

- For school lunch programs

- Against tax cuts for the wealthy

- Against excessive corporate profits

And the money quote? “High prices have not been caused by higher wages.”

How did Reagan get from 1948 to the President who destroyed organized labor in this country?

Interesting I had no idea that the Late President Reagan was a democrat at one time. Is this something that happened (change of parties) when Blacks joined the democratic party.
My goodness what happened?

I think it just demonstrates what we all know, you can't believe a word that comes out of any of their mouths.

Yes Clark, I have never been able to figure out if her school friend showed that picture of Hillary as president of her College republican college club or telling how Hillary had stopped speaking to her ( Democrat) father for his not supporting Goldwater was to help her get elected or not during the last election.
