Sorry, I forget most of you are too young to remember these things happening.
Reagan did not have the symptoms of WHILE he was president (until 1988). His classic 'I can't remember" was in the Tower Report 1987. Both Bush snr (vice Pres) and Reagan claimed to have no knowledge of selling arms to Iran for hostages and aiding the contras, financed by drug running into the US, in Nicaragua (both covert ops by the NSA).
Col. Oliver North who took the fall (and others) claimed they did.
The someone I mentioned with a diary was Caspar Weinberger.
