Got filthy rich and became a republican.
Money corrupts some people
visited his library over the holidays, have more respect for him now than before....i didn't know he was a democrat who voted for FDR and then changed to republican to stop the expansion of frivolous government spending etc....
btw, the airforce 1 section is unbelievable, astounding, mind-blowing, marvelous...a must see, pictures do it no justice, and the oval office, very, very cool, exact replica....in fact, the resolute desk replica is the one obama is now using....

First and foremost he was a politician. He said what he thought his voters wanted to hear.
Reagan was a brain dead idiot who took credit for things he didn't do.
Some rich people dont become corrupt.
the one who do become corrupt will usually become Rs because they can make more money as Rs.
Inane, they can make far more money as "blue dog" democrats.
Most people become republicans because they see it as the shortest route towards smaller levels of government intervention.
Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
- -- Aristotle
Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
- -- The Buddha
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
