Reagan

When he left the White House in 1988, Ronald Reagan was one of the most popular presidents of the century - and one of the most controversial. Reagan preached a gospel of lower taxes, less government and anti-communism.

An economic transformation in 1983 secured Reagan’s second term. The episode chronicles his last four years in office—from the loss of his closest advisors and the Iran-Contra scandal to the dawning of the fall of Communism in Europe.
