RONALD REAGAN’S APOLITICAL WARNING
In 1961, before his political career got underway, future President of the US Ronald Reagan delivered a ten-minute warning about socialized medicine and its likely trajectory as a societal flying wedge, for the establishment of socialism in the USA. Reagan, denied access to mass media by a left-leaning mass media establishment lost in adoration of a charismatic new US President (John F. Kennedy) had to find a different vehicle to get his message out.
In this pre-internet era, Reagan chose to record a phonograph record (cover reproduced above) citizens could play for neighbors as a communal warning. Americans organized “coffee klatches” to play Reagan’s message which, at just over ten minutes long, corresponded neatly with the time needed to drink a cup of coffee or have a cigarette. After the session, the record would be passed on to someone else who would hold his or her own “coffee klatch.” In this slow-motion fashion, Reagan’s warning about socialism went “viral” in 1961. The net result: socialized medicine was defeated by an avalanche of adverse public opinion, expressed by an angry public via its only means of communication in that era: letters delivered by US Mail to Congressmen and Senators.
Reagan’s talk on socialized medicine, heard today, is eerily predictive of both today’s messianic push for government control over our healthcare system and Obama’s ever-advancing socialistic agenda. HEAR THIS AUDIO FILE NOW. And send the link to your friends. Get your “coffee klatch” going today!
