Remember When We Had A Real President?
I do.
“How can we not believe in the greatness of America? How can we not do what is right and needed to preserve this last best hope of man on earth?… we cannot, must not, and will not turn back. We will finish our job. How could we do less? We’re Americans.”
— Ronald Reagan
When I am feeling on the cusp of despondency at the current set of circumstances, so tawdry that they defy description, and I happen upon this photograph and quotation, remembrances well up in me of a President who loved his country and proclaimed that love with every utterance and every action. So I thought I would share it and hope it brings a smile, albeit of the bittersweet variety, to you as it did for me.
