How many people have been in the WH to stop this?? Keith is a numb nuts.
I love Ronald Reagan and came of age politically when he was president. He and Margaret Thatcher are my political heroes. But that was 40 years ago. We have to develop something new and relevant.
I always throw Pope John Paul with Reagan and Maggie
This isn’t the same country that it was in Reagan’s time.
“...And after he turned away from the New Deal politics of his father and his youth...”

What the author of this piece doesn’t quite seem to understand is that the New Deal pushed to its logical conclusions eventually leads to a heavily socialized/ quasi-communist state.
Reagan merely saw what was self-evident about the course of ever-increasing collectivization of US-life.
I believe everything went down hill after Bush 41 lost in 1992.
Reagan was great, but one man can’t save a nation forever. The Democrats have been undermining our country incrementally for decades, if not centuries.
Lots of bad things were allowed to happen during the 80’s. I think it was that decade that the teacher’s union totally took control of public education and ruined it forever.
That’s no ****. It appears the best America can do these days for a president is a Jamaican/Injun “refugee”. What happened to all the men in America?! Man buns and selfies?
It went downhill after Reagan left office in 1989.
Reagan was great against communism and restoring Patriotism.
On the other side, he’s the one that legalized abortion in California which shortly led to the roe versus Wade culture.
He gave a million illegals amnesty and turned California blue.
He signed off on some gun control.
He also gave us Justices Kennedy and O Connor who were reliably conservatives at times it didn’t matter and liberal at the times it did matter.
Reagan, as we remember him, couldn’t exist today.
What he appealed to is already almost completely forgotten in our post-modern, cynical, Neo-marxist society and government
Heroes will need to come in new forms
Reagan was fighting Communism abroad, and Liberalism at home.Trump is fighting marxism HERE.
The chance of another Reagan now is about zero—as he could never, ever get elected with the current demographic makeup. The influx of millions of future democrats (i.e. illegal aliens and all their relatives to follow) makes it a certainy.
I disagree wit Burris on some points.
However, no “great leader”, including Reagan, is perfect, and we cannot expect them to be (even the ones we admire most).
I do think it's more perilous now than then, and Reagan had a lot of issues to deal with.
Loved Ronald Rragan. 3 disappointments, not fighting back fack
news, making that you couldn’t sue vaccine companies, and changing the election laws then, when it could be done.
Another was immigration.
Yes, everyone misses him. Especially the GOPe who today claim his legacy and when he was President bitterly opposed it.
Pant load. Not worth reading.
Ronnie gave citizenship to 3-4 million illegal alien invaders and he created the PPT which has let the big banks make trillions of dollars by insider trading.
Look at what they do, not what they say.
