Talk:Ron Reagan/Archives/2016

Is he a pariah?

Is he isolated from the rest of the Reagans because of his political ideology? 204.184.80.26 (talk) 19:31, 28 April 2010 (UTC)

My short answer is no. He and Patti Davis are the only children of the surviving Reagan Nancy so I would think she would favor her own children with Reagan. Patti is politically close to Ron. Ron and his Mom agree on stem-cell research and they love his father. Maureen died so she can't be holding any political grudges. This leaves the adopted son of Jane Wyman, Michael, who is much more conservative than the 2 children of Nancy and Ronald Reagan. So this only leaves Michael to be at odds with. Even if Michael doesn't like Ron's politics, "pariah" would not be appropriate. Just my opinion. --Javaweb (talk) 06:54, 17 January 2011 (UTC)Javaweb

Speaking as an adopted child, your opinion that Nancy would have less favor for an adopted child disgusting. Just my opinion. 184.10.250.122 (talk) 22:44, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

That is not my opinion. My point was that he was not raised by Ms Reagan, he was raised by Ms. Wyman. He is not a child of Nancy Reagan. He is a child, adopted or not, of Jane Wyman and did not reside with Nancy Reagan. I'm crossing out "adopted" since it is not relevant here. Thank you for pointing that out.

An adopted child's parents explicitly chose to have that child so I believe adopted children are at least as loved as any child.

A recent Am Heritage definition of that word uses terms: "social outcast"; a member of a caste "very low" in India, or the "untouchables" (1949). To imply that this type of stigmatization has been conferred on Mr. Reagan by the family, and I would need to know more, but I would suggest that it is an inaccurate viewing, if not wholly inaccurate. (...) I have seen Ron on TV, during the last decade, defending his Dad, and his father's Presidency, eloquently and passionately. To suggest he is a person in a sense 'cast out' is, imo, entirely a misconception. (John G. Lewis (talk) 19:46, 12 March 2016 (UTC))
