Really? I vividly recall a true Conservative named Ronald Wilson Reagan that won election in two landslides not all that long ago. The result of his policies was a 25 year economic expansion unlike this country has ever seen, the fall of the USSR, and a host of other great things Congress has managed to screw up in the last 10-12 years.....
Hate to bring this up but that was almost 30 years ago. Unfortunately, America is NOT the same country today that it was then. We have lost a tremendous number of the “greatest generation” and replaced them with the “I can sell you anything via TV” generation.
Sadly, you must always take stock of your army and decide what objectives are achievable. Hence my pessimism that I will ever see a President elected that I would be COMPLETELY satisfied.
