Quote by Walter Cronkite

“Reagan was an exceedingly likeable guy, just a heck of a nice fellow, despite his politics. He was funny and loved a good joke, the dirtier, I'm afraid the more ethnic, the better. I don't think he brought very much to the presidency, except charisma and success.”

It's not a liberal, it's humanitarian and that's a vastly different thing.”
