Why They Call Him “The Jelly Bean President”
President Reagan had a quirk about him– he loved jelly beans! A jar of jelly beans awaited him every time he boarded Air Force One.
When Reagan was a child, a nice man gave him jelly beans during his tour to the White House. “I didn’t know then, but the jelly beans were much more than a sweet treat, they represented the uniqueness and greatness of America,” said Reagan.
