Dubbs is doing selective editing again. This puts it back into context: "But good-meaning bigots can change. Abraham Lincoln did, Spencer W. Kimball did, Reagan never did -- bigotry is hard to shake." Please note that Dubbs left out that SWK changed for the better in this area.
Read SWK's works, percy, and get back to me. He talks about how hard it was for him to overcome his Arizona LDS upbringing and the attitudes towards people of color. My friends and I, too, in St. George and Washington County had to overcome that bigotry, Dubbs. Didn't matter whether you were LDS or not in our area, and I guess it was the same where SWK grew up as well.
Blowing a fuse, huh, percy? Too funny.
Your claiming he was a bigot, then changed, do you have proof he was a bigot before 1978?
Didn't think so, so shut your yapper punk.

Yes, you are correct, and Bigdummy's claim's are wrong here also. Typical
"LOL" Dubbs do you even know what the word bigot means "LOL"
why do you think it just has to do with racial discrimination,
Ronald Reagan was a conservative, very conservative which means: Favoring traditional views and values; tending to oppose change, a person who is reluctant to accept changes and new ideas, he was a member of a Conservative Party.
right there should tell you Ronald Reagan was a bigot...
look at the definition of bigot then look back what a conservative is:
bigot One who is strongly partial to one's own group, religion, race, or politics and is intolerant of those who differ.
a person who is utterly intolerant of any differing creed, belief, or opinion.
The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, Fourth Edition
There's a difference between being opposed to somehting and that making you a bigot.
course your too dumb to understand this, I know it flew right over your head.
Again, show proof he was a bigot, or your just a slandering bumbling idiot.
If you are opposed to a good thing, then you are bigoted against it. Reagan had the federal civil rights' funding cut his entire administration.Dosen't make him a bigot. What other presidents voted against this? Are they bigots also?

But OK you want proof about Ronald Reagans bigotry, how about this, did you ever here how RR felt about hippies, he hated them, now this is a fact, they even made posters about it, here look at this one:  NOW TELL ME, was or wasn't he a bigot "LOL" Reagan first began his civil service to famous, wealthy people as the president of the Screen Actors Guild in the 40's and 50's. Naturally, this made him a prime candidate for governor of California, which he won entirely on an anti-hippie, anti-hobo platform.

Didn't you just do that to Jaye about an hour ago?  You bet I did. And with my husband's knowledge too. So again, does your wife know?

Also Dubbs didyou know about this: On 15 May 1969, Governor Ronald Reagan ordered armed police to carry out a dawn raid against hippie protesters who had occupied People's Park near the Berkeley campus of the University of California. During the subsequent battle, one man was shot dead and 128 other people needed hospital treatment. On that day, the 'straight' world and the counter-culture appeared to be implacably opposed. On one side of the barricades, Governor Reagan and his followers advocated unfettered private enterprise and supported the invasion of Vietnam. On the other side, the hippies championed a social revolution at home and opposed imperial expansion abroad. In the year of the raid on People's Park, it seemed that the historical choice between these two opposing visions of America's future could only be settled through violent conflict.
