AND HE BUILT THE SHINING CITY ON THE HILL
It's still a work in progress, parts fall apart while other parts are being built, but nobody articulated the vision of what we should be building like Ronald Reagan did.
We definitely had the largest peacetime expansion (12+ years or more) because of his policies. What a shame we've seen to have forgotten them (& him too). Well, at least not all of us!
I think history will record him as the reason we won the cold war... hands down. Now there's a legacy!
What a shame that he couldn't have picked a successor that would have run with his ideas. Instead Bush Sr. turned out to be too 'moderate'. Man, when will the pubbies learn that compromise is simply incrementalism viewed from the losing side!
