"Did granting amnesty to three million illegals unite the party?"
Quite frankly, I cannot even remember him granting Amnesty
It certainly did not divide the party

Did cutting-and-running after 240 Marines were murdered in Lebanon unite the party?
It did not divide the party.

Did raising taxes, twice, unite the party?

Are these things the GOP ought to be doing, today, to unite the party, since Reagan did them.

REAGAN and the GOP did not control all three branches
of Gov, as I am sure you are aware. He had a democratic congress(Tip O'Neil) and a Democratic Senate. Yet they feared him, with good reason.

Today we control all three branches of Gov and govern like the minority.

Reagan had feet of clay, as Bush does. Iran Contra almost destroyed Reagan's last two years.

You are racing to judge Bush's legacy when he has over 54 months left in his administration.

You're also willing to turn Congress over to the Democrats to guarantee nothing will get done and he could likely get impeached.

You're on my list.
