Reagan on America

“What you've done is make this country a happier place and, I think, speaking for all of us, it's deeply appreciated.”

“There are many ways that people make contributions to their country. What you've given to America over these many years can never be taken away. What you've done is make this country a happier place and, I think, speaking for all of us, it's deeply appreciated.”
