John Lennon ‘No Longer a Radical’ at the End of His Life?

Hey! We saw a very interesting text in a website of rock and now you can read too! (it's about John Lennon)

At the time of his death, John Lennon had largely moved beyond the radical spirit of his early years, his former personal assistant has revealed. As reported byJam!Showbiz, Lennon assistant Fred Seaman says that, by 1980, Lennon enjoyed arguing with left-wing radicals who reminded him of his former self.

“John, basically, made it very clear that if he were an American he would vote for Reagan, because he was really sour on Jimmy Carter,” Seaman says in a new documentary titled Beatles Stories. “He’d met Reagan back, I think, in the ’70s at some sporting event. Reagan was the guy who had ordered the National Guard, I believe, to go after the young [peace] demonstrators in Berkeley, so I think that John maybe forgot about that.”

Seaman went on to say Lennon retained his provocative nature, but that he was “a different person” in 1980 from the artist who wrote “Imagine.” “By 1979 he looked back on that guy and was embarrassed by that guy’s naivete,” Seaman said.
