Dear Margaret:
Just a personal note to tell you of my intention to formally declare my candidacy for President of the United States on November 13th.
I will present my candidacy on a thirty minute tele-vision broadcast to be shown in most cities on the evening of the 13th. I hope you will take the time to watch.
The problems of the 1980s, to stem inflation, restore the proper role of government and revitalize our nation’s economy are challenges to which I look forward.
In the weeks and months ahead, I will outline my proposals for our nation. I am honored to have your support.
Sincerely,
Ronald Reagan
RONALD REAGAN
Reagan for President—United States Senator Paul Laxalt, Chairman; Bay Buchanan, Treasurer.
