A compact passing release is characteristic of his general economy of movement and thought. "Most quarterbacks have that high...
Part of the problem is that Reagan's idea of the program differs significantly from that of many others in his Administration. When the President delivered his startling speech on March 23, 1983, unveiling his hope that the U.S. might some day be able to protect itself from enemy attack, he profoundly changed the terms of reference in the national, and international, debate over nuclear war and peace...
