Ronald Reagan 1911-2004

Ronald Reagan, the 40th president of our country, died Saturday after a long battle with Alzheimer's disease. A tear came to my eye when I heard this news. President Reagan was the first president that I can truly remember (even though I do vaguely remember my parents complaining about President Carter). I remember seeing the president get shot by John Hinckley Jr. when I was in elementary school. He revolutionized conservative politics and set me on the path as a conservative. It is sad to see such a great figure pass away, but somewhat of a relief because of the condition he was suffering from.

NationalReview.com has a great collection of articles about the late president.
