You missed the part where Reagan said 3rd party is not the answer. He took the GOP back from the Establishment just like the Tea Parties are doing (a little at a time).
Nothing wrong with supporting Third Party candidates, who have a shot either. As I said, that’s what I did with Doug Hoffman.
Just don’t act on emotion alone. I’m emotional, too, but it must be combined with pragmatism.
I missed nothing. There is one party in DC.
This is no longer the USA and political parties Ronald Reagan knew and would even recognize. Reagan was not that stupid. He would not be the GOP's cheerleader. Are we going to drag out the GOP-E favorite so called Reagan Commandment as well? Reagans debates with GHW Bush were quite vocal. The two were as opposite as night and day. Sad to say POTUS even then had little to say about who shared the ticket. I don't think he would have picked GHWB as VP if he had gotten his way.
Our nation no longer has the luxury of change a little bit at a time when the ones driving the train to hell have us set on full throttle. Logical change would be disconnecting the cars it's towing from the engine ASAP. Suicide would be waiting till while it's going over a cliff.
