I agree with most of that, and the thing is?, most of those changes will effectively be irreversible (or take 25+ years to reverse). In other words, we won’t suddenly be “saved” if The Next Reagan comes along in 4-8 years. More like 40 years.

Exactly, we know from Obama’s own words, the he wants an activist judiciary to bypass the ‘limitations of the constitution’ and provide social justice (of course, his own version of Bolshevik social justice). Reminds me of the Kornilov Mutiny where the Czarist troops stood down and allowed the Bolshevik’s to run over Petrograd.

Besides, there isn't a 'Next Reagan' out there. In 1976, Reagan was well-known from activities outside of politics, had run California, the largest state in the union, successfully for 8 years, and had come very close to taking the nomination away from a sitting President. He didn't emerge from nowhere.
