Yes, former President Reagan announced that he had Alzheimer's in 1994, about five years after leaving office. You can see a copy of the letter at http://www.reagan.utexas.edu/archives/reference/alzheimerletter.html. He died about 10 years later on June 5, 2004.

Yes, a few think that the onset was when Voodoo economics also called Reganomics came into existence. A few claim that if he ever had Alzheimers it was in the final ten minutes of his life. Presidential History is constantly being revised. In a hundred years Historians may define and identify the difference between charishma and clarity of leadership. The Voodoo Economics may be identified as the cause of (or an element related to) the economic collapse and depression of 2008, but there is no evidence to support this. It is more likely caused by the Democrats controlling FannieMae and FreddieMac, combined with the removal of the Glass-Stegal Act. History requires a little time to sort things out. Alzheimers is a terrible and terrifying disease. Let everyone hope that a cure to it can be found.

He certainly had Alzheimer's when he died. Although his enemies like to say he was senile while he was president, people who should know say his mind was clear while he was in office. I think he dozed off occasionally during boring meetings.
