I recently saw a bumper sticker that said something like, "IT TOOK A CARTER TO GET A REAGAN." We shall see.
Unfortunately, I haven't seen a Reagan.
I will admit I was 2 when the Reagan presidency ended but I personally think he was overrated. He raised takes increased deficit spending increased the size of the federal government and let us not forget about the Iran-contra scandal. It's confusing to me why when he goes counter to all conservative principals and is still head in such high regard by the republican party. Don't get me wrong he was a decent President, with good morals and values who was able to speak to and calm the american people better than anyone since FDR.
