Ronald Wilson Reagan ; Tampico, Illinois; 6 de febrero de 1911 - Bel-Air, Los Ángeles; 5 de junio de 2004 fue un actor y político estadounidense, el cuadragésimo presidente de los Estados Unidos entre 1981 y 1989 y el trigésimo tercer gobernador del estado de California entre 1967 y 1975.

Nacido en Illinois, en 1928 se mudó a Los Ángeles, California, donde trabajó como actor, fue presidente del Screen Actors Guild y portavoz de la compañía multinacional de infraestructuras, servicios financieros y medios de comunicación General Electric . Su inicio en la política ocurrió durante su trabajo en GE; originalmente miembro del Partido Demócrata, se cambió al Partido Republicano en 1962 a la edad de 51 años. Tras pronunciar un entusiasta discurso en apoyo a la candidatura presidencial de 1964 de Barry Goldwater, fue persuadido para lograr la gobernación de California, ganándola dos años después y por segunda vez en 1970. Fue vencido en su carrera por la nominación republicana presidencial en 1968 y en 1976, pero ganó tanto la nominación como las elecciones en 1980, convirtiéndose en Presidente de los Estados Unidos de América.

Como presidente introdujo nuevas y osadas iniciativas políticas y económicas. Su política económica, entroncada en la llamada economía de la oferta, se haría famosa bajo el nombre de "reaganomics", caracterizada por la desregularización del sistema financiero y por las rebajas substanciales de impuestos implementadas en 1981. En su primer período, sobrevivió a un intento de asesinato, marcó una línea dura contra los sindicatos y además ordenó acciones militares en la independiente isla caribeña de Granada, próxima a la costa de Venezuela. Fue reelegido con una gran mayoría en las elecciones de 1984. El segundo período de Reagan estuvo marcado principalmente por asuntos extranjeros, siendo los más importantes el fin de la Guerra Fría, el bombardeo de Libia y la revelación del escándalo Irán-Contras. Previamente el presidente había ordenado un masivo incremento militar para la lucha estrecha contra la Unión de Repúblicas Socialistas Soviéticas , dejando atrás la estrategia de la détente. Describió públicamente a la URSS como el "imperio del mal" y apoyó movimientos anticomunistas en todo el mundo a través de la denominada Doctrina Reagan. Negoció el Tratado INF para el desarme nuclear con el secretario general soviético Mijaíl Gorbachov, logrando la reducción de los arsenales nucleares de ambos países.

Dejó el cargo en 1989. En 1994 el expresidente reveló que le habían diagnosticado la enfermedad de Alzheimer a comienzos de ese año. Murió diez años después a la edad de noventa y tres, siendo uno de los expresidentes más longevos del país. Wikipedia

“A government big enough to give you everything you want is a government big enough to take from you everything you have.”

Attributed to Reagan from informal remarks to reporters 10 October 1984,and to students and faculty at St. John's University 28 March 1985.[citation needed] The statement was made a decade earlier by Gerald Ford in an address to a Joint Session of the Congress, 12 August 1974. It is sometimes attributed to Thomas Jefferson and Barry Goldwater.
Similar assertions have often been attributed to Barry Goldwater. Some of the inspiration for such expressions may lie in "The Criminality of the State" by Albert Jay Nock in American Mercury (March 1939) where he stated: "You get the same order of criminality from any State to which you give power to exercise it; and whatever power you give the State to do things for you carries with it the equivalent power to do things to you."

“Prejudice is not a failing peculiar to one race, it can and does exist in people of every race and ethnic background. It takes individual effort to root it out of one’s heart. In my case my father and mother saw that it never got a start. I shall be forever grateful to them.”

“If you analyze it I believe the very heart and soul of conservatism is libertarianism.”

I think conservatism is really a misnomer just as liberalism is a misnomer for the liberals — if we were back in the days of the Revolution, so-called conservatives today would be the Liberals and the liberals would be the Tories. The basis of conservatism is a desire for less government interference or less centralized authority or more individual freedom and this is a pretty general description also of what libertarianism is. Now, I can’t say that I will agree with all the things that the present group who call themselves Libertarians in the sense of a party say, because I think that like in any political movement there are shades, and there are libertarians who are almost over at the point of wanting no government at all or anarchy. I believe there are legitimate government functions. There is a legitimate need in an orderly society for some government to maintain freedom or we will have tyranny by individuals. The strongest man on the block will run the neighborhood. We have government to ensure that we don’t each one of us have to carry a club to defend ourselves. But again, I stand on my statement that I think that libertarianism and conservatism are traveling the same path.
