i grew up in the reagan years (teens) and always liked the man, however if the world today were like then i imagine he would be slaughtered on a continual basis about the iran/contra affair in the media.

As I recall Titus, the media didn't like Reagan one bit! There was a difference though in the two, Reagan was a true leader...

Titus said...

at least people (including me) respected him.

I was watching a thing on Reagan on TV last week (not much to do but watch cable when you're stuck in a hotel room). He was amazing. A great leader and open about being a Christian.

Yeah, according to ABC: "During his presidency an average of 61 percent of Americans reported an overall favorable impression of him"

I think it has risen to nearly 70% when the poll was taken again in 2001.

He was an awesome president! One of our best for sure!! I wish we had more people like him in political offices.
