What would Reagan Do?

Ronald Reagan came to power at a difficult time in our history. The United States was not only facing a severe economic crisis at the time he took office, but was struggling to meet the demoralizing challenges presented by the Soviet Union. It was Reagan who gave us confidence and had the moral standing to overcome this adversary. He had the moral clarity to define the communist state as what it was: An evil empire. The economy, spurred by a long-term commitment to lower taxes by a pro-growth government, brought us all comfortably into the next decade. When you contrast this with how uncomfortable President Obama and Sec. Geithner have made us feel about our situation lately, you can only ‘hope’ for a ‘change’ to someone with more Reagan-like qualities in the near future.
