Young children don’t know that TV is just actors play acting.


That sentence reminded me of a post I saw on reddit the other day. A 15 year old kid was bragging about making phone calls for Bernie Sanders. The comments on the post were hilarious.

Think about it: Most of the voters today were not aware of Ronald Reagan as President.

To make a comparison, I always heard about FDR when I was kid—what a big deal he was (I am from MA, big lib area) and I never got it. I hear the republicans today spouting off to Millennials about Reagan...and we might as well be talking about the campaign politics of Grover Cleveland.

That is why they are not accepting Hillary—her husband’s dealings in the oval office are not “cool” to them. They don’t mind affairs, but not using his power to slam interns in the office. They don’t like that.

They are still thinking we need to go socialist and since Obama did not work, they think we need to go further left.

The largest part of our population has no sense of history.

They are going to get a dose of it, I am afraid.

RE:” I hear the republicans today spouting off to Millennials about Reagan...and we might as well be talking about the campaign politics of Grover Cleveland.”

Mark Levin does that all the time.
And that's also a Rushbo thing.

The problem with that is we had 8 years of GWB after 4 years of his dad, both left office leaving Americans with bad memories, after Reagan.

More-so those two and many others were very supportive of GWB, with a few exceptions, mostly his ‘deal making’ after Pelosi and Reid took congress back.

In a way Reagan is ancient history.

It is a vastly different country and world than it was in 1988.
