You seem to have a calculation problem.

I was in college during the 1976 and 1980 presidential campaigns. (As you must know, Reagan lost the nomination to Pres. Ford in 1976 - there was only a primary in California.) On both of those, I worked directly for the campaign. (In 1980, the state campaign office was just a short distance from campus.) By 1984 I was a federal employee, covered by the Hatch Act. There were (and are) certain prohibitions about participation in partisan political campaigns. One such prohibition is raising money for a candidate. There are others as well. Yet, a federal employee does not waive all of his or her rights just because they are employed by the federal government. There are activities that are permissible. To the extent that I was allowed to, I worked for Reagan's re-election in 1984.

I don't know what your comprehension problem is. This is pretty straight forward. And as I said before - easily proved.

So are you going to keep up the smear job, coward? Do you care to put your money where your mouth is? Low life trolls like you are an embarrassment to FR.

Spin, spin, spin, and the LIE remains.

[cr to 4CJ #1804 on late, great deleted thread (Confederate Constitution to be unveiled for holiday") "I worked for him in the 1976 primary campaign and in the 1980 campaign while I was in college. By 1984, I was prohibited from participating in partisan political campaigns, by the Hatch Act."

[cr #412] I worked in the Reagan Administration. I worked in Reagan's campaigns in 1976, 1980, and 1984.
