Ronald Reagan Presidential Library

Unfortunately, the Museum is undergoing major renovations right now so more than two-thirds of it is not viewable until February 2011. They charge full price ($12/person) for 1/3 of a museum. Then they won't let you take your own photos in the doorway of AF1. For $29.99, you can get a CD of your 'official photo' with a slide show of the plane, though. Disappointing. The grounds are gorgeous, however, and the memorial site is worth a stop. Wait until 2011 to visit the museum, though.
