This is his Time for Choosing speech on October 27, 1964.
Ronald Reagan, The Great Communicator, joins Washington and Lincoln, at this period in history, to form the triumvirate of our greatest statesmen to ever hold the highest office in our land. Now, seeking their party?s nomination to run for the presidency in 2008, many are invoking his name, hoping they can seize some of his magic to endear themselves to the electorate. In striving to deliver his message that democracy will win over totalitarianism, Reagan never wavered. At a time when we doubted, he brought hope and restored our faith in America. This volume carries not the opinion of a biographer, but Reagan?s own words. His speeches give a reverse meaning to the phrase ?actions speak louder than words.? His words spoke louder than actions. While I do not know if Reagan ever read the works of the British economist, David Ricardo, I believe that he, centuries earlier, aptly described Reagan?s approach to leadership and life when he wrote, ?I wish that I may never think the smiles of the great and powerful a sufficient inducement to turn aside from the straight path of honesty and the convictions of my own mind.?
