Why did Ronald Reagan leave the Democratic Party and register Republican?

It seems that he just became more conservative over the course of his life. Perhaps this is best answered in his own words: Asked why he, an ardent New Deal liberal in his youth, had turned away from the Democratic Party, Reagan said simply: "I didn't leave the Democratic Party. It left me."

A funny anecdote on the subject: On a rare slow news day during his Presidency an NBC news crew, following a White House meeting of GOP and Democratic leaders, walked around the great now-empty table and began noting the doodles that each leader had made on a notepad. Democrats, the reporter showed, mostly had drawn doodles of animals or human faces. Republicans had drawn geometric forms, squares within squares or the like with one exception.

Republican President Ronald Reagan had drawn faces and animals. He doodled like a Democrat! More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
