Wonderful. Thanks for the link, JohnPDuncan.

I believe this video taken at Reagan’s 83rd birthday in 1994 may be the last time they were together.

Reagan thanking Margaret:

“As most of you know, Margaret and I go back quite a ways. We met at a time before she became Prime Minister and I became President. From the moment we met, we discovered that we shared quite similar views of government and freedom. Margaret ended our first meeting by telling me, “We must stand together,” and that’s exactly what we’ve done in the years since—as friends — as friends and as political allies.

Margaret Thatcher is one of the giants of our century. Her many achievements will be appreciated more and more as time goes on and history is written. For me, she has been a staunch ally, my political soul mate, a great visionary, and a dear, dear friend. Thank you, Margaret, for being with us tonight.”

My pleasure... I hope you can share it. There will never be a pair of leaders like this again. Certainly not in my life time and I’m quite young. Sad. We now have “leaders” like Obama.
