ronald reagan

 

  • [70] When Reagan became president 32 years later, he became the first divorced person to assume the nation’s highest office.

  • In April 1942, Reagan was ordered to military active duty in San Francisco and never quite became a big first-rank film star despite playing the lead in numerous movies.

  • [64] Following their marriage in 1952, Ronald and Nancy Reagan, who continued to use the stage name Nancy Davis, acted together in three TV series episodes, including a 1958
    installment of General Electric Theater titled “A Turkey for the President”.

  • [106] Reagan: 50–59% 60–69% 70–79% Brown: 50–59% Shortly after assuming office, Reagan tested the 1968 presidential waters as part of a “Stop Nixon” movement, hoping to cut
    into Nixon’s southern support[107] and become a compromise candidate[108] if neither Nixon nor second-place candidate Nelson Rockefeller received enough delegates to win on the first ballot at the Republican convention.

  • Stephen Vaughn says: At many points the positions taken by the First Christian Church of Reagan’s youth coincided with the words, if not the beliefs of the latter-day Reagan.

  • [60] Regarding a “jurisdictional strike” going on for seven months at that time, Reagan testified: The first time that this word “Communist” was ever injected into any of
    the meetings concerning the strike was at a meeting in Chicago with Mr. William Hutchinson, president of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners, who were on strike at the time.

  • [55][56][57] Four decades later it was revealed that, during the late 1940s, Reagan (under the code name T-10) and his then-wife, Jane Wyman, provided the FBI with the names
    of actors within the motion picture industry whom they believed to be communist sympathizers.

  • [95][96] — October 27, 1964 This “A Time for Choosing” speech was not enough to turn around the faltering Goldwater campaign, but it was the crucial event that established
    Reagan’s national political visibility.

  • [122][123] Reagan’s terms as governor helped to shape the policies he would pursue in his later political career as president.

  • [34] He spent the first few years of his Hollywood career in the “B film” unit, where, Reagan joked, the producers “didn’t want them good; they wanted them Thursday”.

  • [114] Reagan had been in office for only four months when he signed the bill and later stated that had he been more experienced as governor, he would not have signed it.

  • [71] Reagan and Wyman continued to be friends until his death; Wyman voted for Reagan in both his runs, and on his death she said, “America has lost a great president and
    a great, kind, and gentle man.

  • From 1947 to 1952, Reagan served as president of the Screen Actors Guild, during which time he worked to root out alleged communist influence within it.

  • [15] After becoming a prominent actor, Reagan gave speeches in favor of racial equality following World War II.

  • [77] During his presidency, they often displayed affection for each other; one press secretary said, “They never took each other for granted.

  • [121] Years later, he told his son Michael that signing that law was his “greatest regret” in public life.

  • He helped her with issues regarding her name appearing on a Communist blacklist in Hollywood; she had been mistaken for another Nancy Davis.

  • [16] Later, as a politician, Reagan was often accused of appealing to white racial resentment and backlash against the civil-rights movement; one example was during his first
    campaign for Governor of California, Reagan’s platform included a promise to repeal legislation barring housing discrimination.

  • [60] Further, when asked whether he was aware of Communist efforts within the Screen Writers Guild, Reagan would not play along, saying, “Sir, like the other gentlemen, I
    must say that that is hearsay.

  • He consolidated themes that he had developed in his talks for GE to deliver his famous speech, “A Time for Choosing”: The Founding Fathers knew a government can’t control
    the economy without controlling people.

  • [17] Religion Ronald Reagan wrote that his mother “always expected to find the best in people and often did”.

  • In Reagan’s campaign, he emphasized two main themes: “to send the welfare bums back to work”, and, in reference to burgeoning anti-war and anti-establishment student protests
    at the University of California, Berkeley, “to clean up the mess at Berkeley”.

  • One of Reagan’s greatest frustrations in office was the controversy of capital punishment, which he strongly supported.

  • [37] Wyman, who was a registered Republican, also stated that their breakup stemmed from a difference in politics (Reagan was still a Democrat at the time).

  • [52] First instituted in 1947 by Studio executives who agreed that they would not employ anyone believed to be or to have been Communists or sympathetic with radical politics,
    the blacklist grew steadily larger during the early 1950s as the U.S. Congress continued to investigate domestic political subversion.

  • In 1937, Reagan moved to California, where he found work as an actor and appeared in several major productions.

  • David Broder of The Washington Post called it, “the most successful national political debut since William Jennings Bryan electrified the 1896 Democratic convention with his
    Cross of Gold speech”.

  • [49] In January 1944, Reagan was ordered to temporary duty in New York City to participate in the opening of the Sixth War Loan Drive, which campaigned for the purchase of
    war bonds.

  • “[90] When the legislation that would become Medicare was introduced in 1961, he created a recording for the American Medical Association (AMA) warning that such legislation
    would mean the end of freedom in America.

  • [60] However, Reagan also opposed measures soon to manifest in the Mundt–Nixon Bill in May 1948 by opining: As a citizen I would hesitate, or not like, to see any political
    party outlawed on the basis of its political ideology…

  • When Reagan left office in 1989, he held an approval rating of 68%, matching those of Franklin D. Roosevelt and later Bill Clinton as the highest ratings for departing presidents
    in the modern era.

  • [109][111] One year after the incident, Reagan responded to questions about campus protest movements saying, “If it takes a bloodbath, let’s get it over with.

  • At 69 years, 349 days of age at the time of his first inauguration, Reagan was the oldest person to assume the U.S.

  • A member of the Republican Party starting in 1962, he previously served as the 33rd governor of California from 1967 to 1975 after a career as a Hollywood actor and union
    leader.

  • [33] The Bad Man (1941) While traveling with the Cubs in California in 1937, Reagan took a screen test that led to a seven-year contract with Warner Bros.

  • [52] When the SAG president and six board members resigned in March 1947 due to the union’s new bylaws on conflict of interest, Reagan was elected president in a special election.

  • [45] On April 18, 1942, Reagan was ordered to active duty for the first time.

  • [115] The Reagans meet with President Richard Nixon and First Lady Pat Nixon, July 1970 In 1967, Reagan signed the Mulford Act, which repealed a law allowing the public carrying
    of loaded firearms (becoming California Penal Code 12031 and 171(c)).

  • [82] In his early political career, he joined numerous political committees with a left-wing orientation, such as the American Veterans Committee.

  • [25] Reagan scaled down his church attendance while serving as president, citing the inconvenience that his large Secret Service entourage would bring to other churchgoers
    and the potential danger (to others) from his presence due to possible terrorism.

  • In the early stages of the debate, Democratic California state senator Anthony Beilenson introduced the Therapeutic Abortion Act in an effort to reduce the number of “back-room
    abortions” performed in California.

  • [97][98][99] Governor of California (1967–1975) California Republicans were impressed with Reagan’s political views and charisma after his “Time for Choosing” speech,[101]
    and in late 1965 he announced his campaign for governor in the 1966 election.

  • [119] In 1969, Reagan signed the Family Law Act, which was an amalgam of two bills that had been written and revised by the California State Legislature over more than two
    years.

  • [88] Eager for a larger stage, but not allowed to enter politics by GE, Reagan quit and formally registered as a Republican.

  • [80] Early political career Reagan began as a Hollywood Democrat, and Franklin D. Roosevelt was “a true hero” to him.

  • In 1964, his speech “A Time for Choosing”—a campaign speech on behalf of Republican presidential nominee Barry Goldwater—earned him national attention as a new conservative
    figure.

  • [7] After his election as president, Reagan lived in the upstairs White House private quarters, and he would quip that he was “living above the store” again.

  • His tenure constituted a realignment toward conservative policies in the United States known as the Reagan Era, and he is often considered a conservative icon.

  • “[58][59] HUAC’s Hollywood hearings In October 1947 during HUAC’s Hollywood hearings, Reagan testified as president of the Screen Actors Guild:[60] There has been a small
    group within the Screen Actors Guild which has consistently opposed the policy of the guild board and officers of the guild… suspected of more or less following the tactics that we associate with the Communist Party… At times they have
    attempted to be a disruptive influence…

  • When I say my life began with Ronnie, well, it’s true.

  • [63] In his final work as a professional actor, Reagan was a host and performer from 1964 to 1965 on the television series Death Valley Days.

  • [84] In the 1948 presidential election, Reagan strongly supported Harry S. Truman and appeared on stage with him during a campaign speech in Los Angeles.

  • However, by the time of the convention, Nixon had 692 delegate votes, 25 more than he needed to secure the nomination, followed by Rockefeller with Reagan in third place.

  • Even so, he was uncomfortable with the way the SAG was being used by the government, asking during one FBI interview, “Do they (ie.

  • [120] It became the first no-fault divorce legislation in the United States.

  • After World War II, he resumed service and became third vice president in 1946.

  • The show ran for ten seasons from 1953 to 1962, which increased Reagan’s national profile.

  • Reagan then called out 2,200 state National Guard troops to occupy the city of Berkeley for two weeks to crack down on the protesters.

  • The bill, which was named after Republican assemblyman Don Mulford, garnered national attention after the Black Panthers marched bearing arms upon the California State Capitol
    to protest it.

  • Shortly afterward, he received co-star above-the-title billing with Flynn – who was still a huge star at the time – in Desperate Journey (1942).

  • [24] During his years at Hollywood, Reagan became a member of the Hollywood-Beverly Christian Church[21] and attended its services infrequently.

  • On May 15, 1969, during the People’s Park protests at the university’s campus (the original purpose of which was to discuss the Arab–Israeli conflict), Reagan sent the California
    Highway Patrol and other officers to quell the protests.

  • He recalled the time when his college football team was staying at a local hotel that would not allow two black teammates to stay there, and he invited them to his parents’
    home 15 miles (24 kilometers) away in Dixon.

  • Early life Ronald Wilson Reagan was born on February 6, 1911, in an apartment on the second floor of a commercial building in Tampico, Illinois.

  • Evaluations of his presidency among historians and the general public place him among the upper tier of American presidents.

  • He would later make nuclear weapons a key point of his presidency when he specifically stated his opposition to mutual assured destruction.

  • She described their meeting by saying, “I don’t know if it was exactly love at first sight, but it was pretty close.

  • Throughout his film career, Reagan’s mother answered much of his fan mail.

  • [26][27] After leaving office, Reagan officially joined Bel Air as its member and regularly attended services there.

  • In a speech in June 1987 at the Brandenburg Gate, four years after he publicly described the Soviet Union as an “evil empire”, Reagan challenged Soviet General Secretary Mikhail
    Gorbachev to open the Berlin Wall.

  • He asked the Screen Actors Guild to submit terms to Mr. Walsh, for Walsh to give in the settling of this strike, and he told us to tell Mr. Walsh that if he would give in
    on these terms he, in turn, would run this Sorrell and the other Commies out—I am quoting him—and break it up.

  • His many speeches—which he wrote himself—were non-partisan but carried a conservative, pro-business message; he was influenced by Lemuel Boulware, a senior GE executive.
