“When we were writing for Ronald Reagan, he would insist that we don't talk about people as being--he wouldn't say Irish Americans or Mexican Americans or German Americans. He always insisted that we say 'Americans of Irish descent,' 'Americans of Mexican descent,' 'Americans of German descent.' Americans together, up front. So that's a little bit of wisdom. Just that little expression showed the wisdom of that man. It was my honor to join with my two colleagues at the 100th celebration. Dan and Dave and I, we have a special place in our lives for this man, Ronald Reagan. And I think that that birthday and that gathering that we had at the Reagan Library is one of the most memorable times that I will have, and I am just so grateful that I was able to share that with you. I think the Reagan Library is doing a terrific job, and they will then be able to carry what we are talking about tonight so that younger people, people 100 years from now, will get a good picture of this man who saved America and saved the world from tyranny.”
