Reagan on Democracy, Free Enterprise, and America

“For the truth is that Americans must choose between two drastically different points of view.”

October 4, 1982

“For the truth is that Americans must choose between two drastically different points of view. One puts its faith in the pipedreamers and margin-scribblers in Washington; the other believes in the collective wisdom of the people and their commitment to the American dream. One says tax and tax, spend and spend, and the other says have faith in the common sense of the people.”

— Remarks in Columbus to Members of Ohio Veterans Organizations
