Ronald Reagan: “Something sure has happened here!”

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.

Let us remember that the Soviet preponderance in military power in Europe remains, an asymmetry that offends our Jeffersonian senses.

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

We must and will dedicate ourselves as a Nation to continue this effort, and to stand in solidarity with those who resist, until the blessings of democracy, freedom, and respect for human dignity are assured throughout the world.
