Now you’re being a sassy smart mouth with me. I shook Ronald Reagan’s hand at Bel Air Presbyterian in 1990. I followed him throughout the 70s when I was in California and in the 80s while he was President.

RR as governor was nothing big. He was good but hated by the left. When he ran for President in 1976, he was thought to be a joke, a B-Rated actor wanting to be President.

In 1980 he was viewed similarly as a bad joke. He was not elected because he had been governor. He was not elected because he was eloquent in his speech and manner.

He was elected because he was viewed as a hard-line badass that was needed to shake up Washington and put that pussy Carter out to his peanut pasture. The awful economy and policies of Carter coupled with the Iranian Hostage Crisis caused democrats shame to show up to the polls thereby allowing that Hitler-like Reagan fellow in their view to be elected.

That’s how it happened. People like you more than 35 years later are farting out your ears with BS ‘points’.

Now get lost!

Yeah, that happens when you think my logic on my post was not real or even exists...

So, did you expect me to agree with you ? Silliness!

I would have liked to shake Reagans had as well, but that is pretty meaningless as a reason to think your position is more valuable than mine...

I voted for the man twice even without shaking his hand...

Now you get lost !!!
