Reagan at Brandenburg Gate

This is what it was like to have a President who wasn't afraid to promote American values abroad.

Mr. Klein,
Thank you once again.
You know, I am always reflecting upon the softness of Mr. Reagan's voice in his speeches. Evidently he took a page from Teddy's book; "walk softly and carry a big stick".
Our enemies knew if they launched on us...their empire would end in less than an hour with Reagan at the helm and the "football" always in reach.

Mr. Reagan, God bless him, did NOT have to deal with predecessors who were themselves communist true believers or "one worlders" here in our own country's highest government offices.

I truly wonder, what he would say and do in these days.
You betcha'
