I would have accompanied you. Since last Saturday, I have heard him called 'the greatest President of our lifetime,' 'one of the two greatest Presidents of this century,' etc. I deeply admire the faith, courage, goodness and vision of Washington, but I believe even he cannot measure up to President Reagan. History, if recorded accurately, should place him at the top of the list.
Respectfully, I slightly disagree and I think Reagan would. Oh it's a close call, I admit. They both defeated two "Evil Empires" and propped up the nation at low times. But Washington set the standards of the presidency so high, that it takes a man of Reagan's quality to even be compared to Washington. Washington truly was "The Father of his Country". Without Washington, there would have been no USA, no Ronald Reagan.
Sincerely, Buck
