I have a picture on my office wall of Ronald Reagan shaking hands with me. I was Senior Counsel and Economist in his Council of Economic Advisers for one year, I will always be proud of having served at the pleasure of the man who was our greatest president since Lincoln. Andrew Sullivan captures some of the deep decency of the man. Sullivan is just an invaluable resource.
