If you are going to invoke the name of Ronald Reagan, you had better know of whom you are speaking. Most of the Huckabee supporters, the Ron Paul supporters, and others who presume to take up the mantle of the Greatest President of the past century are clueless.

I would love to see Fred do this speech, word for word!

A million thanks for putting this up for us. Wonder if there’s an audio or video of it floating around someplace....

The Huckabee supporters are aimlessly and stupidly taking us down the same road the Christian Democrats have taken Europe, and we see how well that is working. Social Justice via taxation is the exact opposite of conservatism.

Ron Paul supporters are just idiots period. The only thing they have proven is that a political campaign can be financed by money normally spent on Bite Sized Skittles and Pot, along with a little cash chipped in from “Uncle George” and some skinheads.

Mark Levin played the entire 1964 Reagan nomination speech on his radio program right before Christmas.

It was amazing to hear how contemporary it was.

I wish I had taped it.

Best regards,

“It was real interesting hearing Fred Thompson talk about Ronald Reagan last night,” Huckabee said. “Because Fred Thompson supported Gerald Ford in 1976 and not Ronald Reagan. He supported (fellow Tennessean) Howard Baker in 1980 and not Ronald Reagan. I appreciate his recent conversion, but some of us were for Ronald Reagan back in the early days; our legacy goes back a little further.”

Another thread made reference to this speech which caused me to go find it on the web. I was going to post it because while I am sure it was applicable over 40 years ago it is VERY appropriate during these trying times. Thanks for posting.
