What President did Alex P Keaton like while on the show? I think it was Nixon but my friend says it's Reagan. Could someone help me out.

I'm pretty sure it was Nixon. Ronald Reagan was mentioned in Back To The Future, so your friend might have heard Reagan from that movie.

I think it was both Nixon and Reagan, but more Reagan since he was the current President at that time.

Well, he liked Reagan of course, but was a true Nixon fan. An episode stated he had a lunchbox with Nixon's picture on it as a child.

They showed the Richard Nixon lunchbox in the my name is Alex episode. It was pretty funny seeing Nixon's big face on a lunchbox. It got a pretty good laugh from the audience too.

While on the show Alex was a true fan of Nixon. In the last few episodes that re-aired just a few days ago there is a picture sitting on Alex's night stand of Nixon. Elyse, and Jennifer don't like it and put it where they don't have to see it.

Alex was also a big fan of Reagan and it was shown in one particular episode when it's Nick's last day teaching art at the local 'Y'. Alex makes him a 'Reagan Ranch' and when Alex is about to give the Ranch to Nick Alex suddenly refuses, because he didn't want to lose it. (He made it out of craft sticks, etc.)
