In that regard, Bush is very "Reaganesque" in his pragmatic approach to leadership.

Reagan never failed to understand the importance of clarity of purpose. He described the USSR as the 'evil empire' in 1983, when it was absolutely unfashionable to do so. He challenged Mr. Gorbachev to 'tear down this wall' and was ridiculed for it. IMHO, Mr. Bush hasn't yet shown that he fully appreciates the importance of that component of leadership.

President Reagan's efforts in fighting communism, are common knowledge today, but back in the 1980`s, only his most ardent supporters considered his rhetoric appropriate and acceptable. Most people found the anti-communist Reagan Doctrine, to be out of line and not in step with standard US foreign policy. Reagan stuck to his plan, stayed the course and America won the Cold War.

Like Reagan, President Bush is an optimistic, positive, and patriotic individual. He has defined America's war on terrorism, in much the same way Reagan defined America's efforts in winning the Cold War. Bush has spoken out time and again, indicating just who the enemy is, what challenges we face as a nation and how we will come out victorious in the end. Bush has accomplished this with the American spirit as his driving force.

Like Ronald Reagan, George W.Bush will stay the course and remain focused on the ultimate goal of winning the war on international terorism.
