Correct response: Who is Ronald Reagan?
More information about Final Jeopardy:
While the phrase dates back to the time of Roman Emperor Hadrian, “peace through strength” became associated with Ronald Reagan from the 1980 election campaign onward; he originally used it as an attack on what he felt was weak leadership out of Jimmy Carter. The phrase has been a part of Republican party platforms in most election cycles since.
The USS Ronald Reagan (CVN-76) was christened in 2001; it’s a Nimitz-class nuclear-powered aircraft carrier; when it was christened, it was the first ship to be named for a former president who was still living at the time of its christening.
