Your point was that I hadn’t read the quote. The only contention I made was that the Reagan Presidency agreed with libertarianism wherever it was compatible with Conservativism, and was in direct opposition where it wasn’t. You can believe in libertarian principles if you like. You can NOT suggest that Ronald Reagan wanted anything to do with libertarianism. He didn’t.
That statement is in direct odds to the quote I posted. His statement again: "I believe the very heart and soul of conservatism is libertarianism". That is a very different statement than claiming that he only agreed with libertarianism where it happened to have a cross-section with conservatism.
You can NOT suggest that Ronald Reagan wanted anything to do with libertarianism. He didn’t.
So he "didn't want anything to do with" a philosophy that he himself stated is at the core of his own? How does that work?
Only one of the above two statements can logically be correct. So which is it? Your own interpretation, or Reagan's own direct words? (And do note: I never "interpreted" his words. I did nothing more than post them exactly as he said them. As far as I can see, the only person "interpreting" them is you. I also, as an aside, never claimed that you did not read the quote, but simply posted it either way.)
