Reagan wouldn't even have contemplated a silly boycott. Reagan was into action not hollow gestures. Reagan would have done what he did, arm the resistance to the teeth and don't bother to talk about it. Reagan would have understood the power of Jesse Owens winning in Berlin and not taken away our athletes' ability to make a similar point, much like our hockey team did in the winter games.

Did Reagan ever make any comments regarding the boycott?
