Oh and Reagan was already out of office when the Berlin Wall came down in was 1989 so he had nothing to do with it..

@FrancisJoa Agreed.. Reagan said "Tear this wall down" two and half years before it happened...Most of the people in Eastern Europe who brought down that wall and overturned their governments, hadn't even heard those words.

[pluxoperon]

Never forget it was Ronald Reagan that made the wall come down. If it wasn't for him it would still divide Germany today.

What a pathetic non-entity. But I blame McCain for throwing the election away b/c he is so vain & self important.

All you need to do is look at what Natan Sharansky says about how dissidents like him were heartened by Reagans "Evil Empire" speech. Just look at how the appeasing moral equivocating fools in the State Department fought Reagan on his "Tear Down This Wall" speech. Millions in Poland & Russia & the Ukraine credit Reagan w/ advancing their freeedom. No Iranian will ever for Obama.
