I believe that history will show W. to be a better President than Reagan.
So do I. He has already exceeded President Reagans record in defending life and he has gone where even RR didn't dare, the heart of the beast in the ME. Of course, President Reagan had the bear on his plate so he can be excused for that but he can't be excused for not responding more forcefully in Lebanon.
I don't know if it was my age or lack of interest but Reagan never captured my heart and mind in the way President Bush has. I didn't initially back him (I actually didn't like the little I read about him) in the 2000 race but went with a friend to see him at a primary campaign rally. I walked away converted and told everyone I knew that he was a sleeping giant. Little did I know what events would transpire or how he would rise to meet them.
Have to beg to differ. Both great presidents, but Reagan was more conservative than W.
