Ronald Reagan WAS a member of the John Birch Society. Some remember Reagan as a fascist governor.

Great job. Enjoyed following. As regards Dutch, wasn’t a big fan at the time, but must concede that he certainly brought conservative thought into the limelight. Before that all I can remember were people and groups who seemed like cranks to me, Joe Pine and the John Burch Society come to mind, or the extremely intellectual Bill Buckley on Firing Line.
