I was shocked to realize recently that Reagan has been our only divorced and remarried president - ever. Not to say that some of them weren’t fornicating scumbags (Jackson married a still-married woman not yet divorced from her husband), but the fact that we have had a pretty high moral social standard for the presidency overall comports completely with the values espoused at the founding of our Nation. But, I don’t see this happening much in the future, if we even have one.
His role in the history of divorce in america goes way beyond that.
And Reagan was highly embarrassed by his divorce. He regarded that as his biggest personal failure.
I remember going to some pro-life thing years ago, and meeting a man who had no use for Regan, because he was divorced.
Of course, no protestant church forbids divorce, so what are you gonna do?
