 * Support as nominator --Peter Weis (talk) 09:47, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment It's a great picture, but it's not currently being utilized well in the article space. I've proposed for it to replace a picture at Ronald Reagan (a FA), but no one has responded yet.  Jujutacular  talk 13:03, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Oppose. The article on Reagan is already led by a FP, I fail to see what this one would add that that one wouldn't. J Milburn (talk) 17:53, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Support: As per Jujutacular's suggestion, the portrait now has a good home in the Ronald Reagan article. I've updated the nomination for that.  The FP we already have of Reagan is one of those ubiquitous formal White House portraits, stood in front of the flag, trying to look natural and down to earth but serious and purposeful, blah blah.  This is so much better (even quality wise), and we get something of his personality as a younger man.  Don't see why there isn't scope for both being FPs, as his presidency did not define him nor his career(s).   Mae din\ talk 22:52, 28 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Weak oppose. The hat is cut off (would make a greater impression otherwise), but still good. Brand meister  t   23:41, 28 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Support. Good portrait, poor president. ˉˉanetode╦╩ 18:50, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Support per nom. In my view, this is an outstanding portrait.  Spikebrennan (talk) 01:00, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Support  Jujutacular  talk 01:10, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Oppose I don't think this satisfies criterion 5 ("Adds value to an article and helps readers to understand an article"). In an article as heavily illustrated as Ronald Reagan, this picture just doesn't add much. He's already 63 in this picture (and governor of California), so it's not exactly showing a different part of his life. Restoration looks pretty good, though.

 * Support This photo is amazingly crisp and has great EV. --AmericanXplorer13 (talk) 04:19, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Support Would be even better with the hat included, but it's such a good pic of the fellow's grin.TCO (talk) 20:55, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
