Ronald Reagan: “We've stuck to our principles rather than trying to be everything to everybody.”

We understood the key to prosperity was low-inflationary growth, and we achieved it.

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.

I expressed to President Gorbachev my confidence that the work we began together at Geneva in 1985 will continue under the Bush administration.

I do hereby proclaim December 17, 1988, as Wright Brothers Day.
