Reagan’s “Morning in America”
Reagan’s presidential re-election campaign introduced its “Morning in America” theme, promoting an image of America as hopeful and moving toward a better future. One of the campaign’s advertisements asserted, “It’s morning again in America, and under the leadership of President Reagan, our country is prouder and stronger and better. Why would we ever want to return to where we were less than four short years ago?”
