A friend has located a videotape on the web of Reagan's September 17, 1985, news conference. This is where I believe Reagan first publicly said the word AIDS.

As an AIDS patient on disability, I can't afford the fee to order and view the tape, to hear and see for myself what he said.

The fee for the tape is $200.

Anyone out there feel like donating that amount to me, so I can order and view the tape? Hopefully someone out there will purchase the tape and help settle the question of when Reagan first spoke about AIDS.

Here the link to the videotape for sale:
