REAGAN, Ronald. Autograph letter signed ("Ronald Reagan"), as Governor, to John A. Steinbacher, Hotel Del Coronado, 16 August [ca. 1970]. 1 page, 4to, Hotel Del Coronado stationery, matted and framed with an engraved portrait . "THE 'BLEEDING HEARTS' HAVE MADE ANTI-COMMUNISM UNFASHIONABLE" Reagan sends a letter of encouragement to a right-wing author: "I'm grateful for your kind letter and believe me I know exactly what you are talking about. The 'Bleeding Hearts' have made anti-communism unfashionable. However a new day may be dawning--if time doesn't run out on us." Within a decade of writing this letter Reagan would overcome the fears of the "Bleeding Hearts" that he was too extreme to become President, and win the White House in a landslide. Before his term was out, he would challenge Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev in Berlin to "tear down this wall." In 1989 Berliners tore it down themselves, triggering the collapse of the Iron Curtain and the entire Soviet empire. By then, anti-communism was indeed fashionable again. He closes by saying, "I intend to get your book. It might be fun to recommend it to some of our more liberal producers just to watch them squirm." Steinbacher authored several books in the late 1960s and early 1970s that attacked liberal pieties, such as Robert F. Kennedy: The Man, the Mysticism, the Murder (1969), The Child Seducers (1970), an attack on sex education instruction in the schools; and The Conspirators: Men Against God (1972), any one of which could conceivably have made liberal producers squirm.
