The 1st time I voted, I voted for Ronald Reagan. I remember that election vary well. <br>The Republican establishment didn't want Reagan to win. Bush was their man. <br>One Rep. Senator said he would support Carter if Reagan won the nomination. <br>Thay gave Reagan the full treatment. Extremist, etc. Reagan compromised by picking Bush as VP. Still, they had Republican turned Ind. Anderson run as <br>3rd party. <br>Now, they all claim to be Reagan Republicans. Where did they stand in 1979?

He was a leader. Come to think of that, we haven't had a half-way decent leader since him.

I live in Hungary, a former communist country. Before 1989, the fall of communism, the Communist Party always told us that Reagan was a villain, a warmonger and a criminal. Being a little child, I believed the communist lies . But now , as an adult, I realized that President Reagan was one of the most brilliant statesmen of the world, someone who liberated Eastern Europe from communism without firing a single bullet. Eastern Europe will never forget you, President Reagan!!

I wondered why Reagan didn't announce his candidacy before a large crowd. Then I read Obama's own memoir, where he said these initial announcements were small by design to allow candidates room to work out their kinks. When he gave his campaign announcement before a big crowd, he said he had no room for error, one gaffe, one wrong move, and his campaign could have ended before it began at that speech.

In spite of not being able to fully deliver on his message, his message is still valid.
