Ya gotta admit—we haven’t had a president that is as eloquent as Kennedy since his passing. I can remember stopping whatever we were doing to listen to him give a speech on our very early television set......

I have to disagree: No one did it like Reagan.

I was born in 1976, my first television memory was his inauguration, and even at that young age his speeches inspired me. None were so eloquent and bold as his. JFK was good, but not as good as Reagan.

One of the few times such power has shaken me to the core was seeing Margaret Thatcher and Mikhail Gorbachev sitting together at Reagan’s funeral.
