Many years ago, after reading Rand, a hitch in the Army and getting a business degree, I knew that it was literally impossible for communism to continue, but I never thought I would see the fall in my life time.

Thank you President Reagan and Happy Birthday.

Thanks for this wonderful tribute!!!

I can remember standing in a long, long line on election day......one of many who couldn't WAIT to vote Carter out, and Reagan in!!!!!

I was privileged to visit the Reagan Presidential Library this summer.......

There was such a sense of respect, peace & warmth in the place.
The guide said "Don't you feel very welcome here"......and I said "Yes, that's it, one feels very welcome in the nicest, most cordial way"

Later (after touring the excellent
historical exhibits)..........I found myself in the gift shop standing in the middle of the floor laughing hysterically at a video they had running non-stop....of Reagan's famous quips!!

I believe it was called "Stand-up Reagan"........

This man could be soooo funny!!!!!
