Reagan on Foreign Policy, Democracy, and America

“We stand for freedom in the world.”

July 4, 1984

“We stand for freedom in the world. We see the gulags and the prisons, those places where man is not free to do work of his choosing and profit from his labor, places where the freedom to worship God has been extinguished and where souls have withered. But we're blessed by God with the right to say of our country: This is where freedom is. This is the land of limitless possibilities.”

— Remarks at a Spirit of America Festival in Decatur, Alabama
