Ronald Reagan: “I do have to say that I have always adhered to the idea that in this job you are the titular head of the party.”

But there's nothing I can say that would make the situation right.

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 always take with us the spirit of vision, skill, and excellence.

If we ever closed the door to new Americans, our leadership in the world would soon be lost.
