I think, although we all remember the Reagans fondly, that, perhaps, we forget a bit since they've been out of the limelight for a while. The one, overall factor in their decisions -- ALWAYS -- "what's the right thing to do?"
My favorite political cartoon was from way back. I believe it was the '83 budget, but I could be wrong. The cartoon showed a picture of Reagan holding the budget book, with a stern and determined face. From his waist down, he was an old oak tree trunk.
Don't worry, if this was decided before OR after Reagan's death, she won't back down. She's not THAT different from her husband.
He'll be remembered as ONE OF OUR GREATEST PRESIDENTS.
On the other hand, clintoon will barely be remembered....and if what him and hill did to this country ever comes out...he'll be remembered as a traitor to America and on the list of one of the worst presidents in US history.
