He wrote that song referring to President Reagan at the time.

I loved that song. Saw him in concert in Wuerzburg, Germany that year, while serving in the U.S. Army. He always tried to play a german gig near a U.S. military base to allow some of his best fans a chance to see him . He was born in Heidleberg, Germany in 1948.

Thanks Jackson Brown- you did great with "Lives in the balance".
