From the 1961 Operation Coffee Cup Campaign against Socialized Medicine as proposed by the Democrats, then a private citizen Ronald Reagan Speaks out against socialized medicine. There is no video because this was an LP sent out by the American Medical Association
Praying that God sends us another Reagan, or Goldwater
How many republicans have gone on record as supporting the abolishment of Medicare, Medicaid, government run (low overhead) health insurance such as is available to the US armed forces, members of congress, federal employes?

FJ, what does that have to do with Reagan viewpoints? They are all the same...republicans, democrats, etc. Not enough difference to slip a gnat's hair between.
Your knee-jerk "well, the yada-yada republicans did (or didn't) it too" is counterproductive and shows a closed mindedness that does not serve you well. tifwiw.
The point is that the GOP generally and Reagan himself explicitly opposed Medicare. Now that the folks that qualify have it, it has become something that they support, even if their party opposed it... even if they are Republicans.
