        he wasn't too bad, from what i remember as a little kid, and reading about him, he wasn't in the worse half of leadership.

        however, the current conservative drive to name everything after him and call him the best president ever for winning the cold war is silly, because imho, he was just lucky and in the right place for the inevitable defeat of the ussr's system.

          yup... way more credit than deserved... and he created more problems trying to win the Cold War that we are still mopping up.

            Nixon won the cold war, call him crooked, self serving or whatever, but he put together the foreign manipulation dream team from hell.

              Reagan rejected or cut 22 spending programs his first 2 years in office..... Dubya hasn't seen a spending bill he didn't like.... but what do you expect from the child of an oil family who never even knew the phrase "that costs too much"?

              Dubya, is, by far, the worst ever, perhaps except LBJ.

                democracy and the american people won the cold war. without us, they wouldn't have lost, so it's silly to say reagan won it.

                it was our drive in the economy, it was our technological wizardry, it was our american patriotism that proved to the soviets that they just couldn't keep up. bears can't fly.

                  LBJ was definitely the standard by which all "0" candidates are gauged by.

                    Yup. Though I'd have to say Herbert Hoover is right down there. Reagan nearly bankrupted the country. His deregulation schemes are still haunting us today. S&L alone will cost us about one trillion dollars when all is said and done. Then there's Iran-Contra and the subversion of the Constitution. Finally there's the war on all things fun: drugs, porography, sex, etc.

                        I rated Raegan as 10 -- one of the worst presidents we have had in our country's history.
                        A lot of Republicans are not racist, but a lot of racists are Republican.

                            I thought 10 meant best......
