Reagan had the capacity to inspire people by appealing to their more noble instincts. Not so today, as people are being manipulated by working to their baser instincts.

I'm a Brit and l look back to President Reagan's administration as one of the great periods in the twentieth Century when he and other world leaders like Thatcher and Gorbachev got together and talked the talk...and changed the map of Europe..... unlike the present, where Hate and Anger have replaced diplomacy.....
I would agree with you but Reagan is the main person responsible for allowing the rise of China; he advocated for them to get special trade status as a 'developing nation', which later got China into the WTO, which they somehow still have, despite being the worlds 2nd biggest economy! Thatcher was the person who ended free milk for school children, brought in the Poll Tax, started selling off social housing and privatised national services like Gas, Electricity and Railways. She did fine with the Falklands though but that doesn't make up for the wreckage she did to the UK, that other PMs have continued to do since. Gorbachev is only known to me for being diplomatic. I've no idea how good or bad he was for Russia overall.
@@Thurgosh_OG In 1968 Edward Short, the Labour Secretary of State for Education and Science, withdrew free milk from secondary schools for children over eleven. His successor, Conservative Margaret Thatcher withdrew free school milk from children over seven in 1971, earning her the nickname "Thatcher, the Milk Snatcher". I guess it was not as easy to get Short to rhyme with something to point out that it was the Labour party who withdrew school milk first. On both occasions the reasons were sound though. The rise in quality of life and income meant that free school milk no longer needed to be provided. The deficiencies in diet leading to malnourishment and calcium deficiencies were no longer evident which is why Labour withdrew the milk. It simply wasn't needed. When Thatcher completed the withdrawal of free school milk, the same reasons applied but additionally, milk was found to be spreading disease amongst the children it was given to owing to how it was stored and distributed.

It does not matter which side of the aisle, these old timers were not vicious like some of the ones we have now. They disagreed, competed, but ultimately respected each other
They also weren't so diametrically opposed, for the most part they agreed on the issues but disagreed on how to tackle the issues. Now they disagree on the fundamentals of reality.
@@HTOP1982 "define"= to put into terms that can be useful in creating common dialogue positions about an issue. Reality= things based on facts, like millions of votes, not emotions, like a cry baby who can't accept he lost two public votes in a row (he lost to Hilary by popular vote) and wants to change elections so that he won't be a continuous Loser.
In one of the earlier comments, someone stated tersely that Reagan's speechwriters gave him all his jokes. This is along the same vein as the frequent more general claim that Reagan's great ability to communicate came from his speechwriters, insinuating that he wasn't really all that intelligent. Funny thing is that Reagan's actual speechwriters say just the opposite. According to Peter Robinson, the Reagan speechwriter who wrote his famous "Mr. Gorbachev, Tear Down This Wall" speech, Reagan was very actively involved in writing his speeches -- much more so than, for example, George H.W. Bush for whom Robinson also worked. He described how Reagan would take speech drafts, mark them up extensively, often writing or rewriting large sections on his own (and Reagan's changes almost always were an improvement). Of course, like all great communicators who want to use humor effectively, he collected stories and jokes that he repeated. Nothing wrong with that. In Robinson's book, "How Ronald Reagan Changed My Life," he records that when he (Robinson) create the draft of the "Mr. Gorbachev, Tear Down This Wall" speech, he decided to address head on the contradiction between the presence of the massive Berlin wall and Gorbachev's claims to want more openness and freedom. This went against what Reagan's policy advisors and diplomats wanted ("too provocative"). Reagan loved the idea! Robinson said that he (Robinson) had struggled with the wording in that famous section of the speech and was talking about it with Reagan. Reagan interjected with something like, "So what you're trying to say is, 'Tear down this wall.'" So the most memorable part of the speech was Reagan's own words. And that was a common thing. Even in the car ride to the Brandenburg Gate where Reagan was to deliver the speech, his aids were trying to talk him out of leaving that part in. Reagan responded, "I'm the President of the United States, so it's ultimately my decision. I'm leaving it in because it's the RIGHT thing to say." Read Robinson's book, "How Ronald Reagan Changed My Life," and you will see that the real Reagan was brilliant, highly engaged, extremely well prepared and well-read, truly caring, and driven by a deep, well-understood and cohesive core philosophy -- very different from the false caricature the left has constructed over the years. Reagan was also a man of integrity -- GENUINE to the core. I hate it when people say, "Reagan was effective because of his acting ability." To which, I reply, "No, he was effective because he WASN'T acting!" And he was driven by a vision for the country that he was trying to fulfill. I once heard someone describe him this way: Most presidents want to be president because they want to BE something; Reagan wanted to be president because he wanted to DO something.
Reagan loved jokes and even collected them. I've heard more than one of his aides relate how Reagan had a small metal box that was full of 3X5 index cards where he had written down jokes he had heard or come up with himself. Also that he continually modified or update them if he thought of something that made them better.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I look forward to reading the book. I truly miss team Reagan/Thatcher! God Bless our Republic and the UK. God Bless and protect Trump!!
And he was a perfect example of that, because he was the one who started America on its downward spiral by stealing all of our Money and giving it to billionaires.

Right, cause he certainly didn't put any policies in place that we are still suffering from...
I was involved in a protection detail guarding President Reagan. After he made his speeches we took him back to O’Hare airport. He held everyone ,in his entourage up until he personally thanked and shook the hand of each cop involved in that detail. Very nice man. Sincere.
@@Gongolongo beside the obvious reason you hate him, he did make good jokes without being political.. It's on RUclips man, your answer is such one sided
I don't know of any other politician (let alone a political leader) in history who regularly told jokes. I'm struggling to think of another politician who ever told just one joke, other than the occasional quip. Reagan was unique.
Don't forget in his presidential debate when the concerns for his age were addressed, and he said "I assure you that for the sake of this debate, and for the American people, I will not take advantage of my opponents youth and inexperience".
Which of course is an homage to the famous quip Senator Bentsen made at the expense of Dan Quayle at the '88 Vice Presidential debate when after Quale said he had as much experience as JFK did when he ran for office, he said " I served with Jack Kennedy. I knew Jack Kennedy. Jack Kennedy was a friend of mine, and Senator, you're no Jack Kennedy"
@@NScherdinAh, typical L wing poster. Doesn't know what the terms he uses mean (including "irony") and thinks inserting some irrelevant -ist accusation, even ones revealing your own ant|4m|rcan attitudes or relying on convoluted/tenuous guilt by association, magically scores points so you "win" whatever the argument is.
one thing you can say about Jefferson which you may or may not be able to say about other presidents is that he put the nation above his own personal interests. Case in point, the Louisiana purchase which would have bankrupted him had he lived long enough.
He was so charismatic and so likeable, even his political enemies couldn't help but love the man he was. One of his closest friends in D.C. was Tip O'Neil the top Democrat in the Senate and his biggest political enemy. We are in desperate need of someone like Reagan today, someone people across our entire country could disagree with politically but find impossible to dislike personally. I voted for John Anderson in 1980 because I was 20 years old, it was my 1st election I could vote in, and being a young, idealistic college student, I thought he was a much "cooler" option than Carter or Reagan. As I joined the workforce two years later and began to understand the "real" world, and as I started consuming the news, I voted for Reagan in 1984 and am proud to have been a part of the last great electoral landslide for POTUS in U.S. history. He was truly our last great POTUS.
I remember the story Reagan told about the doctor in emergency after he got shot and he said to the staff I hope you're all Republicans out there and the doctor replied to him Mr. president today we're all Republicans
@briancurrier9150 Mirror images other than Trump has more of a mouth! BUT, that's needed in this day and age. Reagan was the best President ever. Trump is by far, 2nd best!
AMEN & TY Mr Reagan!! “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction......... or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.” ― R.R. 1967
When mr. Reagan was president of the US and I was a teenager in Europe I hated him for his plans to bring more nuclear missiles to Europe. Looking back I admire his strategic thinking and, watching this video, his sense of humour. I wish the US a president of his calibre.
We've got one candidate with honor and decency. Had one last time, too. Apparently, people like being screwed, 'cause those calling to investigate the steal were shouted down.
It will always be a matter of pride to me that the first time I was old enough to vote for a President, I voted for Reagan, who won, and who was the best human being to ever hold the office of President, bar none EVER. America's greatest President, in our greatest time.
He had something. And I am apolitical. From private to colonel and retired before he was elected, but when he said, "Are you better off today than you were four years ago? After we all were in gas lines and the economy was in constant inflation. I knew. It is funny how nobody said anything, especially all the political pundits. If you tuned into the media you would have learned very little. They knew very little. Then Reagan swept the election. He had something. If you could bottle that, then you would have something.
@@grben9959 That's not an age thing, that's a health thing, people can be older and still healthy enough to hold office, granted these three examples aren't good ones because they are all unfit it seems.
"He could never be elected in today’s California" Not true. California has gone back and forth between democrat and republican. Reagan, Wilson, and Arnold were all republican governors of California. It's been a while, but there comes a point when enough Californians get sick of the liberal BS and elect a conservative governor. We're at that point. (I've lived in California all my life; I was here when Reagan was governor.)
Do you remember Reagan being as bad as Joe Biden is now during the last part of his first term and all through his second term Alzheimer's people! Is Looney wife ran the White House for 4 years using psychics and mediums to dictate policy. I'm calling bulshit on your story so-called Marine

how's the war on drugs going
or iran contra for that matter?
@@sgtjonzoREEEEEEE
dt only admired Reagan for what he could steal from him like maga
I like that
Man God bless them.. There no one like him ❤
THIS IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST!!!!!😂😂😂😂😂
Thank u for this
Imagine telling that joke today. People would freak out.
Only the left would do so.....
I could see Trump telling it. Although his delivery wouldn’t be as smooth as Reagan’s.
I admire Regan.
His witty words.
Very few on these boards know anything about Reagan, not even how to spell his name.
I'm Canadian so I couldn't vote for President Reagan - but when I compare him with what we have in Canada today, the difference is shockingly sad.
Praying for you, bud!
Clearly the great communicator!
LOL, the guy who had Dementia in his second term? Reagan was a moron.
The Greatest Of All Time
It DOES sums it up! Amazing!
Loved President Regan s wit.
I remember the story Reagan told about the doctor in emergency after he got shot and he said to the staff I hope you're all Republicans out there and the doctor replied to him Mr. president today we're all Republicans
This man was a treasure.
He was a man for his time but in some ways I think he was 40 years before his time 😊
He is timeless
Every time I see that guy I yearn for those better days..
Missing you Gipper...
I MISS HIM SO MUCH.
Loved this man ❤ He was so honest and so funny and just like Trump, he loved this great Country 😢 RIP 🙏
Trump is a traitor
Don’t use Reagan’s name and Trumps like that please.
@@briancurrier9150 What are you talking about?
@@RSMR7. Trump is no Reagan.
@briancurrier9150 Mirror images other than Trump has more of a mouth! BUT, that's needed in this day and age. Reagan was the best President ever. Trump is by far, 2nd best!
Oh, my goodness. I miss him!
One of the Finest US Presidents in Modern History
AMEN & TY Mr Reagan!! “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction......... or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.” ― R.R. 1967
He always starts it out lile a true story. That is how a joke should be done. Not with a head in a toilet.
I love and miss you President Reagan and your jokes ❤❤❤❤❤
President Reagan was the greatest in recent time. His B- grade movies kept him humble. But God elevated him at the proper time.
Fabulous. A classic.
"Reagan: No Mics"
Just marry the teeth not the sores, Joe.
Every time I here his voice I am reminded that I have no one left to pull for.
Oh how we need him now! God blessed this country with President Reagan.
Priceless 🤣🤣🤣👏👏👏
Love you thank you President Regan!❤🏁
Presidential and worldly. So very stylish!
I loved this guy 😅😅😅
When mr. Reagan was president of the US and I was a teenager in Europe I hated him for his plans to bring more nuclear missiles to Europe. Looking back I admire his strategic thinking and, watching this video, his sense of humour. I wish the US a president of his calibre.
So do most Americans today!
They don't make 'em like RWR anymore! (What a pity, we could use someone with some honor and decency.)
I hear ya. We're stuck with a different kind of man. What an odd time we're in.
@joebloe3146 So what did he do that any other POTUS wouldn't have done?
We've got one candidate with honor and decency. Had one last time, too. Apparently, people like being screwed, 'cause those calling to investigate the steal were shouted down.
@@scottwhitcher265 Scott all I can say is people believe what they want to believe.
Reagan was so cool 😎 ❤️💯
Priceless!
I am so sharing this with everyone I know. 😂😂😂😂 I had forgotten this one. President Reagan was a wonderful president.
Man, oh man. We need him back.
As a former Democrat I can verify this is 100% true, they always tell you just to be patient, that good things are coming, but they never do
How social security Medicare treating you or maybe a good union retirement pension
How far we have fallen...
It will always be a matter of pride to me that the first time I was old enough to vote for a President, I voted for Reagan, who won, and who was the best human being to ever hold the office of President, bar none EVER. America's greatest President, in our greatest time.
FACT! ❤
Truely one of the best of his generation. RIP.
Love his jokes
We need you back Mr President.
he's dead yuou silly person.
@@TheresaPowers What does that have to do with our need?
We can certantly try.. I got some jumper cables in the garage, and a rather strong generator. Where do we meet?
I'm watching these at 50 realizing why my dad liked him so much 😂
He was our greatest President in every way!
He had something. And I am apolitical. From private to colonel and retired before he was elected, but when he said, "Are you better off today than you were four years ago? After we all were in gas lines and the economy was in constant inflation. I knew. It is funny how nobody said anything, especially all the political pundits. If you tuned into the media you would have learned very little. They knew very little. Then Reagan swept the election. He had something. If you could bottle that, then you would have something.
True integrity and decency.
@@dogetoxic4873 Optimism, intelligence, will and determination
yeah he was an actor beforehand and didnt need notes or a teleprompter to make up shit on the fly
Only thing i like about Regan tell a good joke.
With Regan The audience does the laughing.
With VP Harris the speaker does All The Laughing.
for those of you too young to remember........there was serious debate about his age when he ran. But, he was younger that both DT and JB are now.
He had a good one when questioned about being so much older than his opponent, "I'd never hold his youth and inexperience against him"!
@@scottwhitcher265 I remember laughing me butt off when he said that.....
I remember a serious debate about if an actor could be president. Just shows you how much more people expected from a president back then.
The age concerns were justified. His son says that President Regan's Alzheimer's startd while he was still in office.
@@grben9959 That's not an age thing, that's a health thing, people can be older and still healthy enough to hold office, granted these three examples aren't good ones because they are all unfit it seems.
Can you imagine Biden trying to tell that joke!😂
In all fairness.....it was a pleasure to listen to, not like nowadays
That’s a classic and so true at the same time. One for Donald to tell.👍😁👍
First vote I cast when I became of age was for Reagan. My dad still donates to his ranch charity.
Reagan was the first time I voted also...2 Xs!
I did vote Reagan second term he was part of the project 2025 we hear about today.Heritage foundation was his guide like trump today
I miss him…
Who's got a new found appreciation for this marvelous man during this election year???👍🇺🇲
Then you don't really know much about him.
And questioning my knowledge about the late president due to your probable dislike will solve?
😂😂😂 Funny with HUGE TRUTH AS WELL
The punch line is still valid.
What's funny about that joke is that you could hear it in front of your grandma and young kids and no one would be that uncomfortable.
Wow we’ve uh …really taken a step down.
It was a little bit of a long joke, but Reagan never failed to deliver. 😂😂😂😂
That man was gold.
A turd is still a turd, whether its coated in gold or not. Reagan was one of the worst.
Ronald was my favorite president
Brilliant!
Ronald Reagan was the BEST! Tough as nails politician - a cowboy heart - devoted husband & father and committed to the United States Constitution -
Nailed it….. and true today
One of the LAST GREAT Presidents.
That's the BEST laugh I've had in a long, long time.
You should hear the one about the farmers.
He could never be elected in today’s California.😕
I'm not so sure, we are pretty fed up!!
He couldn’t be nominated in the Republican Party!
@@briancurrier9150 No possible facts to back that up.
@@briancurrier9150 Ronald Reagan's 1980 campaign used the slogan *"Let's Make America Great Again."*
"He could never be elected in today’s California"
Not true. California has gone back and forth between democrat and republican. Reagan, Wilson, and Arnold were all republican governors of California. It's been a while, but there comes a point when enough Californians get sick of the liberal BS and elect a conservative governor. We're at that point.
(I've lived in California all my life; I was here when Reagan was governor.)
Who is watching this today in 2024, coming up to the election? This joke is still so relevant and very funny today.
So funny and pure Reagan!
The man certainly had a talent!
I joined the Marines when he got elected, remember Iran?
Do you remember Reagan being as bad as Joe Biden is now during the last part of his first term and all through his second term Alzheimer's people! Is Looney wife ran the White House for 4 years using psychics and mediums to dictate policy. I'm calling bulshit on your story so-called Marine
I decided NOT to join the military while Jimmy Carter was in.
Thank you for your service.
@@scottwhitcher265 No thanks necessary, we are still kicking
