Ronald Reagan was born in an apartment in Tampico, Illinois on February 6, 1911 above the H.C. Pitney Variety Store. Reagan had a deep belief in the goodness of people probably due to the optimism of his mother.onald learned first hand from his father about hard work and dedication, a work ethic he would adopt. His was charming and a good storyteller, a quality also learned by Ronald and embraced throughout his adulthood. A final aspect of the elder Reagan was his emphasis on judging the individual without prejudice.
Reagan refused. He claimed that getting 40 percent in the state where he was born was a fine showing. Then he won the next primary in North Carolina, his first win, and launched his comeback. President Gerald Ford listened to Ronald Reagan address the Republican National Convention in Kansas City, Mo., in August 1976.In 1976, there were no super PACs courtesy of the Citizens United decision.hey are more like the divisions between Reagan and Ford, when the partyâs conservatives, having lost the Goldwater election, were disappointed with Nixon and Ford for being not conservative enough â just as the Republican right now looks back at George W. Bush and sees him embodying big government.
