Losing another Reagan





Today we lost another first lady. Nancy Reagan.




   I didn't know much about her because she
became the first lady when I was born while her husband became president of the united states. Nancy Reagan, was not one of the best first ladies but she was very helpful on trying to get drugs out of schools and the streets.



  Born Anna Francis Robbins, she helped with the just say no campaign that made it helpful to get children to not do drugs.


It started around 1982 and also became her husband's protector and also was on tv shows staring herself helping children with her "Just say No" campaign showing episodes on different strokes on how one person can just do what is right and say No to drugs. She even started D.A.R.E as well which stood for... Drug Abuse Resistance Education.




Like her husband, she use to be an actress as well and that is how she met Ronald. They didn't get into politics until later in their life. She performed in Broadway's Lute Song as well as playing opposite side her husband Ronald in Wagon Train as well as The Tall man. They both retired from acting and went into politics






When she was in the white house, she seemed to be more in charge than Ronald but she was the one that helped him with most of his Presidential career. Her fashion style during her years in the white house were pretty wearable, but it wasn't much of the style you would see today because it was very eighties. She had met past first ladies such as the late Jackie O. Kennedy and the Late Betty Ford.


    We will miss her. Not many people appreciated her but to tell you the truth there are some first ladies that were not one of the best, while others (like Jackie O.) were really tolerable and able to make a President feel that he was doing a good job. I don't know if I would have voted for Reagan, but I'm sorry to hear about Nancy's passing.  I will miss her but, I'm glad to know Ronald's wife will be keeping him company up in the clouds.
