As part of this re-examination, I support a modest, temporary reduction in the annual rate of legal immigration.

President Ronald Reagan on his 1980 opponent: I had a dream the other night. I dreamed that Jimmy Carter came to me and asked why I wanted his job. I told him I didn't want his job. I want to be President.
