Cyclical pattern to presidencies argues for foreign focus
Carl P. Lê analyzes a theory that presidents start with domestic work then shift to foreign policy. He notes Reagan's term shows more emphasis on international issues, terrorism, and Soviet relations, with domestic success on tax reform and budget modest but fragile. The pattern predicts continued foreign-policy dominance and a potential 1986 summit following elections.
