thats exactly what I'm getting at. Reagan was a Californian, and an actor even which means he lived among social liberals and the right likes to believe he had the same social mores as our friend "PROLIFE"- not so. Is that the issue with this biography? That the truth was exposed about who Reagan was? I honestly don't know. As far as that Morris bio, I remember reading parts of it and Morris did indeed present Reagan as a dimwitted buffoon. The thing is that he (Morris) missed the whole Freidman vs. Keynesian economic thing, which was ushered in by Reagan at some point and whether Reagan was an idiot or not, the economic philosophy should have framed any biography and there was not much of a mention of Reagan's capitalistic values in the Morris book. At least not what I read. They should let the Reagan bio aire, I'll bet most people would react positively to it except a few disgruntled FOX viewers (but they are pissed off about everything anyway) btw- tremendous news regarding NOVL acquiring SuSE linux today
