How do you remember President Reagan?

Asked in Downtown Mountain View. Photos and interviews by Corey Pride.

"I remember him being personable and easy to listen to. He was a president you can admire and respect."
Tony Taylor, Mountain View

"I didn't agree with his policies, but I remember him as someone who was poor who worked his way from the ground up."
Kosh Koshin, Palo Alto

"I remember his trickledown economy. It didn't make sense for me or anyone. It just didn't help the poor."
Steve Cohen, Mountain View

"I remember him as much smarter than I heard he was. He was well-read but the media never portrayed that back then."
Bea Kronert, San Francisco

"The thing I most associate with him is the lunacy behind Star Wars. Thank God it was never funded. It was never going to work."
Larry Cable, Redwood City
