Events of November 24 in THE REAGAN YEARS:

1980:

Ronald Prescott Reagan, son of the President-elect, gets married. Rumors that he is gay finally start to peter out, though gay playright Larry Kramer later claims to know for a fact that Ron was active with men. Nancy says of the marriage, "I'm very happy," but the New York Times describes her manner as "notably subdued". Neither of his parents had been comfortable with having a son dancing ballet, and his father privately expressed worries about his orientation more than once. Young Ron's relations with women have consistently been with those significantly older than himself.

1986:

Ed Meese, after a quick preliminary investigation of the sale of arms to Iran, tells President Reagan that "It's a terrible mess... it's going to be bad news."
