We were fortunate enough to be at “the Wall” in February after it fell.
I’ll never forget the East German soldiers with their ties, uniforms untied, sitting back, relaxed, up on the wall, smoking their cigarettes and total relief.
And the people, streaming out of the gates, clutching their one suitcase, frantic to get OUT of that place, for the first time in how many years ...
Socialism/communism imprisons people. No one EVER wants to “get in.” They always want OUT.
Reagan literally let these people out of a hellatious prison. He let our country out of one, too.
Now we’re slowly turning back into a prison ourselves, the gates are closing behind us, and we’re losing our freedoms.
We need another Reagan — or we have to be Reagans ourselves and STAND UP to this persistent evil in our world.
Some of the rockers we interviewed played in East Berlin two weeks earlier. Their story in the movie is fantastic. Very uplifting.
