Abstract
Historian Allan Winkler calls Ronald Reagan a "classic cold-war warrior." As tensions escalate, $1.5 trillion is spent for nuclear and conventional weapons that will protect the U.S. and maintain its military superiority. Reagan wins decisive victory in the presidential election of 1984 and Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev develop a reasonably close working relationship. In December 1987 the two men sign the Intermediate Nuclear Forces Treat in which they agree to a Zero Zero Option.
