Ronald Reagan Part One: The Birth of A Legend

[playmaka2007]

Great video, but it's a little hard to hear with the music. Don't get me wrong, the music goes well with it, but it's too loud.

[pbrskater26]

The only thing I liked about the 80's was the skateboard and punk movement, Reagan caused a big uprising in the hard core punk movement because of the right wing backlash and the rise in televangalism. Same thing happend in the 2000's with Bush! We dont like to be told what to do or how to think, that its wrong to be free thinkers, the only reason reagan got in office was the fundementalist christian movment.

Amnesty for illegals,Iran Contra, Loan & Savings

First president to start large deficit spending

Presided over the highest unemployment rate since the great depression (10.8%) - including today

He hurt our civil liberties, imprisoned millions, gave aid to muslim extremists, soared deficits and gave greater superpowers to the aristocracy.

Increased the size of government by the largest margin of any president - including today and trickle down economy= TIED WITH BUSH 1& 2 AS WORST EVER!!!

What are the theme songs? They're really good

'TEAR DOWN THIS MYTH!'

[arkrazor22]

Our nation is controlled by the media... People are becoming too dependent on information that comes straight from stupid news stations such as Jon Stewart and Bill Maher. All you have to do is just turn on the tv and watch David Letterman. I believe that Letterman has given up on his comedy to just bash conservatives and sway the younger crowds. Whether you agree with me or not, AMERICA NEEDS A HERO AND OBAMA IS NOT IT! Since Obama came in, the nation has been more divided, not more united.

[genxtargetmarket]

In my estimation, the public opinion of the majority of Americans will change within 25 years. I think that Reagan will be seen for what he was: a deliverer of propaganda for corporate America. No other President had as many cabinet members incarcerated as Reagan's.

I think that it is especially revealing as to how much his speeches were empty when he discusses France's Health Care system @ 2:07. I've been living in Paris for 8 years & their HC System is ranked #1 according to the W.H.O.

[libertyandjustice]

he's a douchebag

[Sartak1977]

RIP Mr Reagan. You were in my humble opinion the one of the greatest leaders our country has ever had, I know there is a special place saved just for great men and women such as you.......... Rest well my friend...My President

[hairbandfan1967]

wyattmcintyre - Where did you get this?  Fantastic post! A great man who loved our country and made us realize how special our country is.

[wyattmcintyre]

@hairbandfan1967 I made it as a tribute to him. I am glad you liked it :)

[ECEngland]

If you don't love this guy then something is wrong with ya. RIP Mr. President.

[JonnyUTSA]

Music is too loud. It should be more in the back ground.

[Holdenon3]

Wow, Nancy looks hot at 8:26.

[TheSixTwoOne]

I look back at this and find it difficult to ignore. Especially when a great man like this only appears once in all our lives.

[pandabead]

i cry for yesterday

i cry for the man

i cry for the nostalgia

i cry for the freedoms

i cry for the history

i cry tor the end of our republic

and the end is forever.

Ronald Reagan was a great lear and a great man!!!

[wyattmcintyre]

Thanks for that message panda

[yeshuaserver]

What makes me sick is that no "Republican" leaders seem to follow the glowing example this great man gave us. They invoke his name while acting more left than right.

He was so immeasurably popular and successful because of his total conservative vision.

It works.

Did then, will now.

We need a true Reagan Republican in office.

[bittergunowner12]

So true, but who?

[taj2p]

This is why we needed Mitt Romney, my friends. I don't know if he's quite Ronald Reagan...but who is? Maybe 2012 will be our year.

[bittergunowner12]

Bobby Jindal! Just ask anyone from Louisiana what hes done.

[taj2p]

I've actually heard a lot about him and I heard he's awesome. I also heard he's in Iowa right now (or will be in the near future).

[alonelychild]

What about Huckabbe? And Palin? She is a tuff fighter, and not dumb as the liberals portraits her

[rosie21114]

Absolutely!

[wyattmcintyre]

Both were great and visionary leaders. I share the sense of mourning for when Reagan passed, he was a leader the likes the world rarely sees.

[mahowel]

This was the first man that I voted for, the reason that I am what I am politically. Thank God that we had him!

[wyattmcintyre]

I was born the day he got the nomination. I never got to vote for him but I can say he is the reason I am political. He was a great leader.

[arkgunslinger]

thanks for posting Wyatt.

[wyattmcintyre]

You are welcome :)

[dlpine]

thank you, wyatt, for sharing this with me. ronald reagan is dear to me. my wife, a democrat, has given me many books, movies and other items about mr. reagan. she is a doll of a person. and you are my dear friend. yours, david

[wyattmcintyre]

As he was to me too David, I have a few books and such about him and everytime I read them I find that I learn something new. :). You sound like you have a dear of a wife, definately supportive :)

Thank you for the kind words, you are a good man and a good friend

[stardestroyerjedi]

He was a great man and an amazing president. Thank you for making it. I miss President Reagan

[wyattmcintyre]

Absolutely he was, thank you my friend, and I miss him too

[blujesus]

reagans arguments here are hypocritical:

1-social security was never meant to take the place of private or union plans

Reagan then when he became president did his best to BUST the unions and RAID social security funds. not to mention raising the national debt to its highest level yet seen.

also- his SOCIALIZED military spent hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars enriching corporations like GE, boeing, lockheed martin, etc.

why is socialized medicine bad, but socialized military good?

[okiecampaigns]

GREAT VIDEO !!!!!!!!!

[wyattmcintyre]

Thanks Okie!

[jeauxl2]

no better pesident ever. i don't beleive there ever will be again one as he.

[wyattmcintyre]

He was a giant in our times, but you are right, there will never be another Reagan. All we can pray is another carries his spirit forward.

[chrismiddleton23]

He was a great man who is missed

[wyattmcintyre]

That he certainly is

[kevpresent]

Oh Ronnie, how we all miss you :(

Kev *=

5*

[wyattmcintyre]

I know Kev, I feel it too.

[truthforamerica]

Awesome! God bless Reagan and may another like him be our President again. Awesome job Wyatt.

[wyattmcintyre]

I am with you Marvin, and when we most need it I know another man of vision will rise.

[spookynshadow]

Happy Birthday to "The Gipper" . God has a special place just for him in Heaven. 5/5* my friend Wyatt. God Bless you and God Bless our great Nation.. The USA!!! ~~ spooky

[wyattmcintyre]

Thank you Spook, and the peace of the Lord be with you always. I have no doubt that he has found comfort in the arms of the savior. God bless America.

[SADDOG45]

He was a wonderful president.

[wyattmcintyre]

absolutely :)

[CountryNation]

Little did we know that one of the greats was serving during our life time. He was our Lincoln our Washington!

Chris

[RogerOnTheRight]

We never do. Rarely do we recognize the heroes in our midst, while they are still with us.

[wyattmcintyre]

A sad reality my friend, but you are absolutely right, and here was a hero in our midst

[wyattmcintyre]

Absouletly, he was a noble man, a great leader.

[souixz]

My favorite President... with my favorite music. Thanks for a great tribute to a great man.

[wyattmcintyre]

You are definately welcome, my favorite too :). God bless.
