All you really need to say is the fact that Reagan was not an intellectual is neither here nor there. But let's not kid ourselves, he wasn't an intellectual.

Certainly, he had his gifts, and I voted for him, and campaigned for him, but I'd never argue that he was an intellectual. And I found his family life to be appalling, especially in light of his verbal support for family values. Making people feel warm and fuzzy isn't at all the same thing as walking the walk, and when it came to family, he didn't walk the walk, he just talked the talk.

But then, he was a politician.
