IGNORE list, son.
You've already gotten too much of my attention.
All I can say is that Conservatives keep bringing up Reagan like their hero, but if you look at Reagan's record today he would be called a flaming liberal by today's conservative standards:Unemployment was 9% or above from Mar 82 to Sept 83
Folks, you've been duped by both parties. There are no conservative/liberal politicians. The only person politicians care about is themselves and whoever pays the highest bribes, sorry, they're called lobbyists these days. Every single working American and small business owner is left to his/her own to survive.
Stop calling each other names and figure out a way to develop a viable third party so we can kick all politicians out and really do something that benefits the majority of the population.

Did he grow government yes and so has just about every President. Originally Posted by Wyldeman30

There is no proof he had Alzheimers at that time. Originally Posted by Wyldeman30
