Transcription

I think it's a big risk to have Reagan as president. Reagan scares me. He shoots from the hip. Some of the recent goofs that he's pulled with regard to China. I'm afraid of him on the foreign policy level. As a governor, it really didn't make that much difference because the state of California doesn't have a foreign policy, and the state of California isn't going to be going to war with a foreign nation. And it was just amusing. But as president, you know, it's scary. Well, my decision is made. I'm going to stick with President Carter.
