Can ' t wait ! <| sep |> Sounds like a Bethesda RPG on any difficulty above normal . <| sep |> Instead of designating one person as his top aide , as Eisenhower had with Sherman Adams , Reagan set up a troika James A . Baker III as chief of staff , Edwin Meese as counselor , and Michael Deaver as deputy chief of staff in charge of public relationsan arrangement that , for a time , left other appointees perplexed . The Reagan White House , said his first secretary of state , Alexander M . Haig Jr . , was as mysterious as a ghost ship you heard the creak of the rigging and the groan of the timbers and sometimes even glimpsed the crew on deck . But which of the crew had the helm ? Was it Meese , was it Baker , was it someone else ? It was impossible to know for sure . Similarly , Peggy Noonan ruminated Who ' s in charge here ? I could never understand where power was in that White House it kept moving . I ' d see men in suits huddled in a hall twenty paces from the Oval Office , and I ' d think , there it is , that ' s where they ' re making the decisions . But the next day they were gone and the hall was empty . The first lady made her own contribution to the diffusion of authority . No one of his appointees , not even his chief of staff , exercised so much power . The New York Times , discussing Nancy Reagan , even wrote of an Associate Presidency . She understood her husband ' s limitations and did all she could to make sure that he was well served . Their son Michael said , Dad looks at half a glass of water and says Look at this ! It ' s half full ! Nancy is always trying to figure out Who stole the other half from my husband ? She sometimes influenced Reagan ' s policies , notably when she pushed for arms control , and she was thought to have been responsible for the removal of two cabinet officials and of the president ' s latterday chief of staff . During his tenure , she dismissed accounts of her impact , but in her memoir , she acknowledged For eight years I was sleeping with the president , and if that doesn ' t give you special access , I don ' t know what does . Reagan ' s staff found especially exasperating the need to clear the president ' s schedule with a first lady who placed so much reliance upon a West Coast astrologer , Joan Quigley . That had been true since the beginning in Sacramento when Reagan was inaugurated as governor at midnight because , it was reported , that was the hour this woman set after perusing the zodiac . On a number of occasions , Deaver would spend days working out an intricate itinerary for the president ' s travels down to the last detail only to be told that he had to scrap everything because the astrologer had determined that the stars were not properly aligned . Horoscopes fixed the day and hour of such major events as presidential debates and summit meetings with Soviet leaders . The president ' s most important aide said , We were paralyzed by this craziness . In these unpropitious circumstances , the troika managed much better than anticipated . Public administration theorists likened this threeheaded makeshift to the mock definition of a camel a horse put together by a committee . But Baker proved to be a highly effective chief of staff and Deaver a masterful maestro of staged events . Secretary Haig later remarked , You couldn ' t serve in this administration without knowing that Reagan was a cipher and that these men were running the government . That judgment , however , failed to credit Reagan ' s perspicacity . In setting up his team , he succeeded in taking to Washington two men who had served him faithfully in SacramentoMeese and Deaverwhile acknowledging that , since they and he had no experience inside the Beltway , he needed to salt his inner corps with a veteran of the Ford era . In choosing Baker , moreover , Reagan , stereotyped as a rigid ideologue , showed unexpected flexibility . Baker , a moderate , had been floor manager for Ford ' s effort to deny Reagan the 1976 presidential nomination , and in 1980 he had run George Bush ' s campaign against Governor Reagan . From the start of his political career , commentators , especially liberals , had been underestimating Reagan . When he announced that he was planning to run for governor of California , he encountered ridicule . At a time when Robert Cummings was a prominent film star , the Hollywood mogul Jack Warner responded , No , Bob Cummings for governor , Ronald Reagan as his best friend . Yet Reagan easily defeated the former mayor of San Francisco to win the Republican nomination , then stunned Democrats by prevailing over the incumbent governor , Pat Brown , by nearly a million votes . Furthermore , he went on to gain reelection to a second term . Reagan ' s performance in Sacramento surprised both adversaries and followers . While continuing to proclaim his undying hostility to government intervention , he stepped up taxes on banks and corporations , increased benefits to welfare recipients , more than doubled funds for higher education , and safeguarded wild and scenic rivers from exploitation . A vocal advocate of the right to life , he nevertheless signed a bill in 1967 that resulted in a rise in legal abortions in the state from 518 in that year to nearly 100 , 000 in 1980 . He was able to forge agreements with Democrats in the capital because he had the advantage , as a veteran of Screen Actors Guild battles , of being an experienced negotiator . In later years , he said of his haggling with Mikhail Gorbachev It was easier than dealing with Jack Warner . His chief Democratic opponent in the legislature , who started out viewing Reagan with contempt , wound up concluding that he had been a pretty good governor , better than Pat Brown , miles and planets and universes better than Jerry Brownthe two most conspicuous Democratic leaders of the period . Scrutiny of his record , however , also raised disquieting features . Months after he took office as governor , a reporter asked him about his priorities . Disconcerted , Reagan turned toward an assistant and said , I could take some coaching from the sidelines , if anyone can recall my legislative program . Expected to decide between conflicting views on the abortion issue , Reagan , Cannon noted , behaved as if lost at sea . His aides often found it difficult to get him to concentrate . On one occasion , in the midst of a vital discussion about the budget , he wandered off Do you know how hard it is to mispronounce ' psychiatric ' once you know how to pronounce it right ? I had to do it in Kings Row and at first I couldn ' t do it . He especially alarmed members of his staff by flying into a rage if the press reported that he had changed his position on an issue , even when he undoubtedly had . All of his disabilitiesgross misperceptions and knowledge gapshe carried into the White House . Yet he was to leave office regarded as a consequential president , and a number of scholars were even to write of an Age of Reagan .
