"I don't intend for this to take on a political tone. I'm just here for the drugs"
- Nancy Reagan
About this Quote
In this quote, Nancy Reagan is mentioning that she does not want her words to be translated as having a political program. She clarifies that her function is exclusively to advocate for the use of drugs. This declaration could be seen as questionable, as substance abuse is frequently a highly politicized issue. By distancing herself from any political motives, Reagan may be trying to attract a broader audience and avoid any possible backlash. Nevertheless, her blunt admission of being exclusively focused on drugs may likewise suggest an absence of concern for other important problems that may be connected to substance abuse.
