Ronald Reagan: “I am pleased to announce the appointment of Warren B. French, Jr. to the President's National Security…”

I will not make age an issue of this campaign. I am not going to exploit for political purposes my opponent's youth and inexperience.

The pursuit of peace is, of course, always in season.

I am delighted that later today I'll have the opportunity to welcome President Gorbachev to the United States and extend to him the hospitality and good wishes of the American people.

This is a great day.
