Abstract:
“Ideas have consequences.” This simple truism became the battle cry of the Reagan Revolution of the 1980s. But it was true long before Ronald Reagan’s term in the White House, and it is no less true today. America still needs the ability to explain its policies and to educate people around the globe about American values and the principles of freedom. Because so many in the world yearn to enjoy the freedom which the United States represents, the world still needs desperately to hear America’s voice.
