Ronald Reagan actually said...

"The old welfare state didn't work; America needs new approaches."

"A few years ago, there were those who said that this vision of opportunity and freedom was dead, that we were a nation in decline."

"This election is not a contest between Republicans and Democrats or between left and right; it's a contest between the future and the past."

"More people are working this year than ever before in our history, and a job is the surest escape from poverty."
