Which one do you like better and why?
If you don’t remember Reagan look him up. Reagan was a true conservative, he believed in the power, justice, Liberty and freedom of the free market with limited government. He believed, the USA was the greatest country in history, with the near perfect constitution and the wisdom of the Founding Fathers. He believe government was the problem and strict adherence to the constitution was the solution. He believed non democratic socialistic countries are or could become our potential enemies so he did everything in his power to destroy or limit the power of these countries. Reagan, Thatcher, and the Pope are most credited in the fall of the Soviet Union.
Liberals hated Reagan and still do today. They hated him because like Obama was so good at communicating to people like you the moderates and the independents. He inherited a rotten economy and turned it around creating millions of jobs and helped minorities and the poor more than any president before him or since. This made Reagan the biggest threat and biggest enemy to liberals, socialist, marxists and fascist. Reagan was so popular with the working class he received a majority of the Union vote.
Obama – A product of liberalism progressive, socialism, marxism, fascism, how ever you would like to describe him, He too convinced the moderates and independents to vote for him. In fact he used much the same language to communicate to the moderates and the working class. i in fact know several moderates who loved Reagan and voted for Obama because they thought they were similar. Now we can see the difference between a populist from the right and a populist from the left. Obama believes the government is the solution to all our problems, he believes the constitution needs to be fixed and changed, he believes the US is a country that needs to be changed and is inherently bad, he believes we have nothing to fear from the many dictators around the world.
Conservatives hate Obama, for much the same reasons as the Liberals hated Reagan. Obama has convinced the moderates that socialism is not so bad, that the government can help, that taking over the banks was necessary, that taking over the car industry is essential, that protectionist trade policy is the best way to protect jobs, that government run healthcare is the solution not the problem. We don’t need more energy, we need more windmills.
Reagan and Obama have taken this country in opposite directions, so if you supported both of them, like many of my friends its now time to take sides. Obama is not a moderate, he is a radical left wing activist who wants to grow government, take over private industry and play nice with our enemies. Reagan would do the following economically right now. He would end the healthcare debate, he reform the tax code, he would give every individual a $2500 per year tax credit from healthcare, and a $500 tax credit for each child, the would tax employer paid benefits encouraging individuals to buy their own insurance, which would reduce the cost, make it more competitive, and make it portable (you would not lose healthcare coverage when you change jobs). He would put in place tort reform, he would close down fanny mae and Freddie mac that with the influence of the politicians were the reason we are in a recession now. He would not have bailed out the Wall street, he would have reduced government regulations on the auto industry and would let companies fail if they are not efficient. He would get 20 – 50 new nuclear power plants on-line within the next 10 years, he would allow for the use of clean coal, and oil drilling in Alaska, and off the coast.
And if history were to repeat itself North Korea and Iran would both have a popular upraising where democracy would win out over dictatorship without a shot being fired.
Okay Moderates its your chance to change the world, its your chance to move this country back to its roots of Jefferson, Adams, Smith, Washington, Lincoln, or more in the other direction towards, Marx, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Castro, etc… Make your choice and make it a good one, pretend your life and your future depends on it, because it does!
Answer the questions quick because Obama’s army run this website, they hate Reagan and love the direction this country is going in and they are dependent on the moderates staying out of the fight. This question will last in my estimate less than 60 mins.
Some interesting responses. 1) to my brit friend, yes Europe is more socailist than the USA but just a matter of time and degree. Not one of the European countries could defend themselves is that your goal for the USA too? And yes the take over of banks, auto, energy, and healthcare are examples of communism/Marxism/fascism take your pick. And yes I would have let them fail and then reorganize. 2) sorry I should have said true democracies that actually count the actual votes cast and allow an opposition canidate. Having something like the bill of rights would be a must too. 3) now can a moderate that voted or would have voted for Reagan and voted for Obama let’s here from you! I don’t really care what the socalist have to say
I’ll take Reagan over odopey anytime.
