Happy Birthday, Mister President

In honor of Ronald Reagan's 102nd birthday, here is his first inaugural speech, from 1981.


He was not perfect, and his push for Free Trade, as envisioned by too many short-sighted economists, has done great harm to the US manufacturing sector.

But at least, when he did it, it was not out of a desire to reduce America to just another country on the world stage.

In all, he was still, by far, the best President within my memory.
