It is not a movie, it is not for us, it is what it is. It belongs to the Reagan family.

It was for the us and the world, too. That is why the lights and cameras were allowed.

People choose what their message will be. Ron chose and some of us heard. I am not "knocking" him. I think he might be upset if you guys don't get what he was saying, actually. And he did deliver his message very well, from a stylistic angle, I think. And I was pleased to see he and Michael and Patti swiftly move to Nancy's side shortly after, when she had to bid her farewell. That was extremely loving and moving.

Observing all of these events correctly does not cancel each other out and it doesn't mean we must ignore or pretend something wasn't said when it was.

Yes. Did you catch that it was when Ron whispered in the distraught Nancy's ear, [probably that she really should not continue in such a vien OR that Ronnie would not want her to be seen that way in public--uncontrolably crying] that it was then that she immediately bolted upright out of the emotion.

I have taken issue with some of Ron's eulogy, but that was a very tender and elegant way in which he delivered the right message to his mother when she needed it. It was hard not to admire Ron at that moment. Then he moved out of the way so Michael could come next to Nancy.

Well done.
