Military strength while the negotiations are going on, thats not good. Youre just going to antagonize your adversary. Reagan didnt think of it that way. He thought you could do both simultaneously. And i think there is a lesson there. You could negotiate with the of yet union, as has been said, he was ready to do that from the beginning. I told George Schultz when schultz came in in the late summer of 82, he had dont be too eager to negotiate with the soviet union and theres other evidence that suggests that he knew he wasnt going to get anywhere until he revived the american economy.

The last time i actually saw them together was during a dedication of a wing of the cancers to toot just a few months ago when john junior was on the stand at the time and that was one of the last times i have seen him with his father. Do you know what the relationship is . Sure an impact if you look at jonathan junior and senior are very close and they still talk every day.
