To: Repeal The 17th

Thanks, you are much better at formatting than my hunt, re-space and peck method. Thank you.

The speech is so profound and so focused- just impressive and inspirational. Reagan was a force to be reckoned with, as Gorby found out, and who was taken out by real Freedom vs the Soviet disaster system. Some said Chernobyl’s debacle was the death knell of the Soviet system- that may be. The political end of them was actuated by Ronald Reagan’s policies and determination.

Correct. And his unambiguous directive to Gorbachev, “Mr. Gorbachev, TEAR DOWN THIS WALL!” delivered in Berlin was incredible. Everyone had advised him against using this line, but he went ahead and delivered it forcefully and, as it turned out, effectively. I have a small chunk of the wall in my possession.
