        To be historically accurate the caption should say VP Bush President Reagan & Secretary Gorbachev. Bush was only running for president.

        From all moments after, even retroactively, the commander in charge is to always be referred to as "the president"

        You could say, "future-president" to give it temporal context.

        I'd go with 'President-elect' and the original caption should have noted the date/time so next time I'll do more research.

        nice picture but anything with the WTC in it brings me great sadness... no other way to say it. Never forget 🇺🇸

        A very different world. None of us ever thought of terrorism in America back then & actually it was not that long ago.

        William Taubman just released his Gorbachev bio this week. His Kruschev book won a Pulitzer, so I'm sure this one will be great as well.
