== Speech Relevance == Reagan speaks of the Founders several times and directly mentioned Hamilton by quoting him: <BLOCKQUOTE>''We cannot buy our security, our freedom from the threat of the bomb by committing an immorality so great as saying to a billion now in slavery behind the [[Iron Curtain]], "Give up your dreams of freedom because to save our own skin, we are willing to make a deal with your slave masters." Alexander Hamilton said, "A nation which can prefer disgrace to danger is prepared for a master, and deserves one." Let's set the record straight. There is no argument over the choice between peace and war, but there is only one guaranteed way you can have peace — and you can have it in the next second — surrender.''</BLOCKQUOTE> Alexander Hamilton wrote this in a letter to the Daily Advertiser and it was published February 21, 1797.
