I have two friend who are Conservative GOP lackeys who make allot of noise about Reagan and yet I refute them with facts...not Fox TV idea of facts....verifiable historical facts..... What you stated about Reagan is correct....I didn't agree with him on all issues just like I don't agree with President Obama. Nixon was one of our smartest presidents especially in dealing with Chinese and on foreign policy but also a dishonest leader and vindictive. We were politically aware in late 60s and 70 s. Remember Vietnam War was ongoing, Johnson's Great Society plans getting speed along with civil rights changes. I was there.....these friends always knock Clintons presidency but even when i told them he left a budget deficit by changing Reagan era
