, according to POLITICO reporting.
In telling his political origin story of converting from an Irish Catholic Democrat to a corn-fed Republican, Pence said he “joined the Reagan revolution and never looked back.” He spoke of taking his vice presidential oath by placing his hand on the Reagan family Bible — Pence, who turned 64 today, is unique in the field for both his frequent and explicit appeals to Reaganism. In part, it might be his age — Pence is the second oldest in the field behind Trump, and one whose political origin story is so closely tied to Reagan.
“I’m always stunned and sobered when I reflect back on how long it’s been,” Daniels said. “We’re as far from Reagan’s election as he was from the middle of the Great Depression. So, first of all, it’s not surprising. Secondly, I don’t think it’s necessarily advisable to invoke him all the time, for someone who has a distant memory or not remote, no memory at all, for so many of today’s Americans.”
