As much as I appreciated Pres. Reagan, I think we need to relabel the revolution. The left has succeeded in demonizing the Reagan “lable” to the extent that even so-called moderate dems would recoil from that reference.

Better to rename the revolution. I’m thinking something like “Rebirth of America” Revolution.

No way... you just remember Reagan’s funeral and you will see that Reagan is MORE popular in death than he was in life and in life... he was the most popular President of our lifetimes.

Rebirth = Reformation
 
Observe that there have been many revolutions throughout history - but only ONE managed to produce this Free American Republic. 
 
"Revolution" is more akin to a Fire in the Minds of Men; and is usually a destructive anarchistic wildfire that simply burns down the village rather than forging anything of lasting virtue within it.
 
 
With that kind of Revolutionary Russian Roulette in historical evidence - it seems wiser to reform toward our proven American First Principles,  instead of allowing new ones to be cast in the image of  "new" would-be Revolutionary Vanguard Elites;  revolutionary "leaders" who, whilst mesmerizing the sheeple ala an HD 5.1 digital rendering of the post-modern epic of American Idol and Dancing with the Stars (in between commercials for Viagra and Soma), usually have nothing more "revolutionary" on their minds, or in their nature, than moving into the Farm House and eating all the milk and apples, again.

Ba'al being a Hebrew word for Lord, Owner, Possessor, MASTER... a systemic defect of human nature that always renders itself into the subjugation of the Individual via a collective tyranny --recognizable throughout history as a merger of religious, commercial, and governmental affairs where....
"COMMERCE BETWEEN MASTER AND SLAVE IS DESPOTISM"
--Thomas Jefferson
There is nothing new under the Sun so,  RTFM, and reform --- the writing is still on the Walls within...

Wrong! In case you hadn't noticed, Reagan is more popular now than when he left office. He has withstood the test of time. His policies have been proven to have led to prosperity.

The whacko lefties are the only ones "recoiling" from the Reagan Revolution. The Nov. elections were all about getting back to "Government IS the problem"
