>>>>>LOL - I really am being truthful.

Okay, fair enough.

Attempts to link Reagan with the nutzies at JBS took place during his run for Governor in 1965 and 1966. Here's one reply from Reagan to set the record straight. Always the gentleman.

"I have never been and I am not now a member of the John Birch Society, nor do I have any intention of ever becoming a member. I have never sought Birch Society support, nor do I have any intention of doing so should I become a candidate for public office. In my opinion those persons who are members of the John Birch Society have a decision to make concerning the reckless and imprudent statements of their leader, Mr.[Robert]Welch".

Ronald Reagan, September. 24, 1965, Ref: "Reagan: a life in letters", pages 171-172.

I like your Reagan quotes.
