Reagan on Democracy
“As long as we remember these words -- 'We the People' -- and make them our guide, so long as we remember that America has always drawn its inspiration from the people and has always been governed best when governed most by those governments closest to the people, America will remain strong and free, the envy of the world.”
August 8, 1988
Remarks at the Annual Meeting of the National Governors' Association in Cincinnati, Ohio
