We knew Ronald Reagan, Ronald Reagan was a friend of ours, and you, Joe Biden, are not Ronald Reagan.
Reagan was sharp and witty in 1984. Biden wasn’t sharp even in 1984.
Great response!
I was stationed in Germany from 77-81. I lived in a small Mosel River town, Traben-Trarbach, I loved the place and my neighbors.
Several months before the election, my neighbors were pleading with me to vote for Carter, they had bought the lie that Reagan would start WWIII. 2-3 times a week, there would be debates over this, they were unable to move me an inch.
Simply put, I told them over and over that the world is a safer place when America is strong. That is a statement that has remained true for over 100 years. He was more than an actor, he had served as the Governor of California.
I put to use the outstanding education I received when California had great schools, and followed that with 4 years at Gonzaga. After living in Germany for 4 years, I spoke near-fluent German once I left work for the day. Our conversations were spoken entirely in German.
The debate ended on Inauguration Day, when the Iranian hostages landed at Ramstein AB, about 60 miles from where I lived. On my next visit to the gasthaus, I was invited to sit at the Stammtisch, a table reserved for family and close friends of the family. It's an honor I cherish to this day.
CORRECT.
