Ronald Reagan was a former California Democrat, NOT a liberal.

Reagan said he was a "near hopeless hemophiliac" bleeding-heart liberal.

He was a founding member of the California branch of the very liberal Americans for Democratic Action back in the '40s and was considered for state chairman of the organization.

Certainly, Ronald Reagan's liberal days were far behind him when he ran for president and won, but he really was a liberal in his younger years.

That was back when liberals and conservatives had the same goals, but just believed there were different ways to get there.

That ship sailed long ago, unfortunately.
