Perry was not a Reagan democrat. Perry is on record of being against Reagan and supported Carter in 76 and 80 and if he was for Gore in 88 then I am sure he was for Mondale and Dukakis too.
Please provide sources...
Actually, I can provide evidence to the contrary:
"There were Hispanics in the community, but Perry said he did not meet someone who was Jewish until he was in the Corps of Cadets at Texas A&M University and really only got to know blacks while serving as a pilot of a C-130 transport in the Air Force. The last Democrat he can remember voting for for president was Jimmy Carter in 1976.
"I'll confess, I wasn't paying much attention. I was flying," Perry said. "Jimmy Carter. Peanut farmer. Georgia. Fooled us."

So we have evidence in Perry's own words that he never voted for a Democrat for president after 1976. I assume you cease posting such nonsense after this...
Bullshit.
