This February 6th marks what would have been President Reagan’s 110th birthday, or, as President Reagan would have joked, the 71st anniversary of his 39th birthday. As President Reagan quipped on his 73rd birthday, “Even though this is the 34th anniversary of my 39th birthday, those numbers don’t faze me at all. I believe Moses was 80 when God first commissioned him for public service. And I also remember something that Thomas Jefferson once said. He said, “We should never judge a President by his age, only by his works.” And ever since he told me that, I’ve stopped worrying.”
With COVID restrictions still high, this year’s event will be completely virtual and will be livestreamed on our YouTube channel at 12:30pm pacific/3:30pm eastern. This is a big year of celebrations, as we continue to mark the 40th anniversary of President Reagan becoming our nation’s 40th president.
