Reagan on National Security, Foreign Policy, and America

“A stronger America doesn't just mean better weapons; it means having the strength of character to meet our commitments.”

October 2, 1984

“A stronger America doesn't just mean better weapons; it means having the strength of character to meet our commitments. It means having the will and the political leadership to protect our national interests. And it means not shirking our responsibility to protect our children's future, even when it might be easier to ignore a potential threat.”
