Reagan the Intellectual

...Economist Hayek was one of Ronald Reagan's favorite thinkers. And Reagan, by Hayek's definition, was an intellectual. Reagan the intellectual? In Democrat Clark Clifford's memorable phrase, the former President was "an amiable dunce." How wrongheaded. The recent publication of Reagan, In His Own Hand (Free Press, $30) has sent most cognoscenti into their foxholes. This volume, with an illuminating preface by George Shultz, contains 259 essays Reagan wrote, mainly scripts for his five-minute, five-day-a-week syndicated radio broadcasts in the late 1970s. They are awe-inspiring in their breadth of subject matter. And they laid out the philosophical framework for his presidency.....Small wonder the Gipper always appeared to be relaxed and in control. He'd thought things through."
