Ronald Reagan’s story isn’t like that of any other United States president. From a challenging childhood to a career in acting and eventually becoming the governor of California, Reagan had already built an impressive résumé long before entering the White House. The dedication it took for Ronald Reagan to reach that point seemed almost impossible at times. But today on Presidents Unplugged, we’ll take a closer look at how he fought through those battles and came out the other side knowing he had helped shape a stronger nation.
