Yes, Reagan was popular but he is responsible for the decline of our Society along with the Republicans who gave us the “Reagan Revolution” aka “Voodoo Economics” or supply side economics….look how good that has worked out! When the ignorant folks on the Right whine about taking back their country, they just need to reverse most of Reagan’s policies which have been pure poison to both the working man and to society as a whole. The Neocons used Reagans failing mind which many now say was already on it’s way out right after he won the 1st election. By his 2nd term, he was forgetting things more and more and as time progressed his reality became one of being surrounded by nothing but his Neocon handlers in his diminished mental capacity …you see the problem with that, don’t you! The mess that they made with the Iran Hostages deal, clearly Reagan broke law and should have been impeached for that but everyone knew he was already too gone and really had little knowledge of it, his presidency like his mind was failing. . The GOP have been pretty successful in hiding the mess they made with this country in last 30 years and elected Democrats are too scared to say what the problem really is and who created this problem that lead to the greatest inequality in our history. Facts just get foggier and foggier as time goes by . Reagan was not some sweet old Grandfather figure, he was a good man with bad ideas, and a failing mind and thought process. He already had a fairly right Wing ideology, although by today’s standards he’d be a Democrat, and it was not hard for the Neocons to manipulate him into doing harm against this country. If we had a law that allowed for three Terms, the Neocons might have propped him up for events, declined all debates and run him for 3rd term. They would then have run the country into the ground and eventually destroy us in a war somewhere. That’s just how they roll. George Bush who succeeded Reagan saved us from the worst of Reagan’s policies, handing a mess over to Clinton, who did fix some things but failed to make folks understand that the country was still not identifying the real problem of the Tax cuts Reagan gave to the top 2% and how it has now lead to the sad state of affairs we see today. Obama is aware of the problem of inequality and Health Care law will be his legacy, but since the Republicans are strictly bought and paid for and are there for the wealthiest only we have little chance of seeing this happen unless we have some good news from the Supreme Court like Scalia, Thomas, or Alito have resigned and someone as powerful of a Progressive Force like Elizabeth Warren becomes President and Dems win back both houses. A fantasy, perhaps, but not entirely impossible and the next 10 years are going to be ones to watch. We are not a nation of Extreme Right Wingers or Extreme Left Wingers, in fact Warren is not a Far Left Winger, she just seems like that compared to the Extremist Far Right which has taken over the GOP. Obama is a moderate not a true Progressive like Warren. Hillary is even more to the Right than Obama but probably our best hope of holding off a disaster where Far Right actually wins Presidency. Don’t see it happening but it is thought I lose sleep over and all Americans should!
I think this astrological analysis of reagan should be required in civics classes in public and private schools. Understating the damage is impossible. Even Nixon wasn’t as contrary to honesty in political events. That this nation was capable of electing this “man” to the presidency twice is still hard for me to comprehend. At least, the travesty of the dubya administration was clearly the result of stolen elections, but Reagan was really president through popular support. Fascism happens.
