and you know, there's a lot of aspects of ronald reagan. one could talk about, i think in honor of carlos as a book subject. i'm going to talk a little bit about reagan as a communicator. but first, i want to the question that that i get asked often. so even if you don't ask it, i'm going to it. and it's a it's a pleasure to be back with all of you here today. but the question is, you know, why did i this book aren't there and maybe this actually goes to carlos, the subject as well. aren't there enough reagan books out there already? kind of the implicit subtext of what i often get asked and you know the answer is when i started, i started this book, you know, more than ten years ago. and when i started, there were certainly a lot of reagan books out there, and some are even pretty good books about we really missing, i thought was a definitive biography that really provided an objective and balanced account of ronald reagan's long and important life. and that's that's something that's a gap on the bookshelf that i set out to fill to write s

defense secretary general lloyd austin announced another round of aid for ukraine as he received the ronald reagan peace through strength award during a ceremony in california. senate minority leader mitch mcconnell also got the award during the same ceremony. this is just over one hour. >> the legendary mr. ted olson was meant to be standing here. i know it would have meant a great deal to come to be standing here because we have great admiration for those receiving the awards today. ted got his start in washington. ted passed away three weeks ago. i know he would have gotten quite a kick out of seeing me try to live up to his oratorial skills resenting this important award. this summer, nato market 75th anniversary with a summit in washington, d.c., at the reagan institute headquarters across from the white house, we welcomed president zelenskyy of ukraine for a special address as his nation continues its noble fight for freedom. republican leader mitch mcconnell led the gathering that day and captured the meaning of the moment saying, "president reagan knew well being a master of rhetori

i absolutely knew ronald reagan knew that poem.t really know it, but i just felt he did, and i knew that if that perfect phrase, that beautiful phrase were included, ronald reagan would use it if he knew that poem, which it turned he did. it had been a very important poem to his friend, tyrone power, and had been a very famous poem during world war ii. and in the years after, and it happened to be written on a plaque outside reagan's daughter patty's school, and he used to sometimes read it and flekt on it in the morning. anyway, that was quite a day. it was a dreadful day. it started out as a busy day for -- for everybody in the office because the state of the union address was scheduled for that night. peter, were you there? were you a young reporter then? >> i was up on capitol hill then. yeah. >> so you know about just the suddenness of stuff. we all knew the state of the union address was coming. so in speech-writing, my boss and the people who had written the address were taken last-minute changes and making last-minute addit

his bid for a second term ended with a landslide defeat to ronald reagan in 1980. >> i promised you fourears ago that i would never lie to you. so i can't stand here tonight and say it doesn't hurt. >> reporter: carter didn't slow down after leaving the white house. he built homes with habitat for humanity, wrote more than 20 books and established a center for human rights. in 2002, carter was awarded the nobel peace prize for his work in the middle east and third world nations. >> there are a lot of exciting things to be done now in this wonderful phase of my life. >> reporter: mr. carter also taught sunday school in his hometown, where he openly discussed his own mortality. >> i didn't ask god to let me live. i just asked god to give me a proper attitude toward death. and i found they was absolutely and completely at ease with death. >> reporter: at age 99, he made a rare public appearance to say goodbye to the first lady, who was by his side for 77 years. and almost a year later, carter celebrated his 100th birthday with family members, making him the first former u.s. president to li

it is very different, it is not ronald reagan. tenor of -- inside the republican party apparatus right now? >> yeah, the other thing that was, i think, central to the reagan era was the importance of character and ronald reagan, for whatever you thought about him, clearly believed in character and i think it showed there in talking about political adversaries. donald trump's statement last night didn't attack jimmy carter or anything, but it wasn't especially graceful. character just seems to be something that people are much less concerned about in the party these days and i frankly hate that. you know, there are -- politics can be ugly but we should all recognize the humanity in other people and we should all realize that we are striving to do good and that the people across from us are not frankly our enemy and that seems to have gotten lost and probably the only reason that the statement on jimmy carter wasn't uglier was because he hadn't actually made an enemy of jimmy carter in the way that he has other people. i don't know

that is why we have called on our authorities to take legal action against or ronald point. because that is our right under international law one victor is the guy is definitely going to zation has ask the new share, you know, so reduce to legit complaints. and that will be a great to distraction for the people from asia ends at the same time. for those who have worked with a company or a value of it, or not people. and yet what has the run or done for new share? run a has done nothing to what's more. we even decide when new jersey rhenium doesn't turn anything. today we have seen what is happening in front. if it wasn't for new jeremy new uranium. why did they decide to wage war against us? what i did is because of this uranium i'm going to our sub, so belongs to us, but it doesn't belong to france or any one else. we will decide how to exploit it, and we will decide home to entrusted to at least 11 people have reportedly been killed and the latest is really strong icon, a so called safe zone in southern gauss, them. the idea has confirmed the drone attack and claims it was

and he believed, the soviet union was an evil empire to use ronald reagan's term, and that we were ina general national, multi-generational conflict. and he he viewed every foreign policy issue through that prism, that cold war prism. and so he was constantly you can see in the archives he's telling carter, you know, to be tougher, do something militaristic, say something nasty about the russians, use use some, send a signal by using a little force. and in one of these memos, you can see in the margins, carter scribbles, oh, use force like mayaguez, a reference to henry kissinger and president ford's disastrous use of force in where that led to unnecessary deaths of of hostages that had been taken aboard a ship and, you know, carter repeated what was astonishing to me was that carter repeatedly turned down and reject biggs advice, particularly during the first three years. he just, you know, he had a different attitude about the cold war and about the third world in particular. he didn't think that the soviets were behind every little revolution in the third world. and he took brzezin

during his final days in office, present ronald reagan delivered those words in his farewell address. his time in the white house was coming to an end but the values he spent his life advancing transcendent a single presidency. today, we honor a leader who has spent his life advancing many of those same values, a leader who also believes as long as we remember our principles, our first principles, the future will always be ours. we know that in part because secretary lloyd austin has attended every reagan national defense forum during his four years as he led the department of defense. now, let me be clear. this is not an award for perfect attendance. at the reagan defense forum. although we are very honored to have you back, mr. secretary. this is a recognition for a lifetime of service. secretary austin has committed himself to nothing short of excellence beginning with his time in mobile, alabama, and at west point. across five decades, his army career has included commands at the core division battalion and brigade levels. after earning a silver star during the invasion of iraq in

here is what ronald reagan said in 1988. roll tape. >> now, with regard to the tax cuts, yes, the rates were cut, but since 1981, our revenue from those taxes has increased by $375 billion, and our projection and we've been very accurate on our projections, our projection for 1990 and the budget we're working on now calls for another $80 billion increase in our revenues, with the rates as they presently are. if you look back beyond us, to coolidge, and his tax cuts, if you look to the kennedy tax cut in his administration which was very similar to the one that we later put in, in every case, it did not reduce the government revenues, it raised them. david: art laffer it sounds like you talking. he absolutely got it. do you think donald trump gets it after what he's seen during his first term? >> oh, you know, watching that clip almost made me cry to be honest with you, david. i miss the man so much. donald trump gets it. not only gets it. he probably gets it as well if not better than reagan. donald trump did not make the mi

just by millimeters and they went on at least john paul ii ronald reagan did to have a huge influence a chance to prove himself. is it too much by the went ronald reagan said something similar to what donald trump did in his diary after he was shot, he said whatever happens now, i own my life and try to serve him in every way i can and is it too much to think that god had an influence and these men living out their lives and their second term so to speak. bill: not at all and i think if you survive something like that, you have to believe that it is providential. and even scared for a reason and purpose i think it donald trump believes it. i don't know exactly what he believes that would not be surprised that we don't blame him. this is good have a reason as any and as you point out, two other guys have had that reagan and really did some fantastic things after that scare. david: there is another quote, and it is attributed to albert i'm side and i don't know if he said this but people writing is a no he did not say this is attributed but he said i'm to report there only two ways to l

and ronald reagan's defeat of jimmy carter in 1980 prevented that second term. he was very sad and he acknowledged it. he said that night that he had promised he would never tell a lie, and he had to admit that this really hurt, that he couldn't say that it didn't hurt. but then what happened is that a few days later, a few weeks later, he gives that farewell address where he says the citizen is even more important as a title than president and as a citizen, he said, which is an incredible quote that he made. he said that, you know, there's only one chance and one life to count for something. and my faith tells me, or my faith demands, that i use whatever i have whenever i can, to make a difference in people's lives. and so for 43 years, he had a long second term where he made such a difference in people's lives. and that's what we're remembering now. he didn't like to think it was just the post-presidency divided from the presidency, because he said, without the presidency and the power and the influence and the resources that it had, he never would have had th
