Rus: I wouldn’t say I was a fan of Reagan’s, rather I was supportive of his policies. I did believe that the Russians were a threat to us and the free world, a belief that is supported by Putin’s policies in present day Russia.
Following Carter’s disastrous Presidency, something had to change regarding America’s position in the world, and I think Reagan was the right guy in the right place at the right time.
As a Republican, I am very disappointed in Bush, but not surprised. I think anybody with the wherewithal to do a little research, and read a little news, would have seen what Bush was about, and well before he took office.
Ultimately, the people are responsible for those we elect, and Bush is our responsibility (those that voted for him, that is).
