Meanings go mobile: Fitness, health and the quality of life debate in contemporary America

"After two terms of ""new patriotism"" and chants of ""U.S.A.: We're number 1,"" Ronald Reagan attributed his phenomenal popularity with the American public not to the made promises of government but to the real progress made by ""the people."" Emerging out of the 1970s era of social nightmares, the ""Reagan revolution"" has afforded the American public to dream of a better quality of life."
