“Reagan was a (the greatest) visionary and a true leader even if we don’t agree with everything he did.”

Reagan was the best . He only made 2 promises to the people

1) Stop the spread of communism

2) Slash the income tax rate, to allow the people to prosper.

He kept both promises.

He made 2 mistakes that were noteworthy.

He signed a bill allowing for a small amnesty, no doubt believing the laws attached to it would be enforced.

He failed to dismantle the Dept. of Education, which today has a stranglehold on all local schools.

Aside from these two mistakes, he was a remarkable leader, and a remarkable man. He inspired an entire country to do their best, and to stay optimistic while pursuing excellence. A remarkable man!

When I say visionary I mean Reagan was forward looking and did not read polls to tell him what to say or do. He know his policies would recover the economy, he knew the USSR would fall if pushed back. And he didn’t leave us in any on-going wars. Clinton got a peace dividend from him which was part of the deficit reduction he took credit for.
