I didn't think he was too conservative. He did a lot controversial non-conservative things while in office. Took us off the gold standard. Detente. Went to China. Arms negotiations. I rememeber something about trying to freeze the price of something (I was kinda young). His original idea in the war on drugs was for counseling and helping the addicts, but it didn't play well to the public so he flipped and started the other war on drugs.

On the other hand, he was a tiny bit whacked . . .
