Reagan was GE’s TV Spokesperson but I am not sure if he ever lobbied for a 3rd world despot or a family planning group.
You can fool some of the people, some of the time, but it appears you can fool a lot of them, every time.

Fred lobbied for a democratically elected President who had been overthrown in a coup. Yep, he later turned out to be a despot, but the folks had chosen him at the time Fred's firm represented him.
As for the family planning group, from the papers filed, Fred did 20 billable hours of work for them over a two year period. Doesn't sound like he had a burning desire to represent their point of view. His lobbying firm was asked to make some phone calls about a piece of legislation, which Fred did, as a member of the firm.
