"Ronald Reagan owes much of his astounding political success to his unusual rhetorical powers. Using modern day folktales and sweeping sagas of grand adventure, Reagan reduces the unarguably complex issues of our times to simple allegories of good and evil... [Author] exposes the technique used by Reagan and his staff to manipulate their audience. We see how Regan skillfully alters facts, makes history into allegory, creates 'stock' characters who personify good and evil and uses metaphors, myths and anecdotes to convince the public this way is the only just and moral way. He reduces questions about economic planning, constitutional interpretation, and national defense to the most basic emotional level...critique of the effects of speechifying it is also a fascinating analysis of the persona of the American public. WE see how Reagan carefully listens to what America wants to hear--easy answers, a simple way out, a guarantee America is number one--and creates the character which personifies these qualities. Reagan has thus become America's projected hero--and to vote against his is to vote against America--and this book tells how he skillfully used his rhetorical genius to capture the American electorate." --Jacket.

Although he left office nearly 20 years ago, Ronald Reagan remains a potent symbol for the conservative movement. The Bush administration frequently invokes his legacy as it formulates and promotes its fiscal, domestic, and foreign policies. His name is watchword for campus conservatives who regard him in a way that borders on hero worship. Conservative media pundits often equate the term "Reagan-esque" with personal honor, fiscal rectitude, and unqualified success in dealing with foreign threats. But how much of the Reagan legacy is based on fact, how much on idealized myth? And what are the reasons - political and otherwise - behind the mythmaking? "Deconstructing Reagan" is a fascinating study of the interplay of politics and memory concerning our fortieth president. While giving credit where credit is due, the authors scrutinize key aspects of the Reagan legacy and the conservative mythology that surrounds it.
