Reagan calls MAD policy stupid and urges disarmament
President Reagan told John A. Holmes High School seniors in Edenton that the United States will not shoot first in a nuclear war and called Mutual Assured Destruction the most stupid policy. He advocated eliminating nuclear weapons and reducing East West mistrust, while noting his Star Wars defense plan and confirming Social Security funding. He also praised tax overhaul passes by Congress and referenced farm economic concerns during the satellite broadcasted Q&A.
