Well, I knew Ronald Reagan. Ronald Reagan was a friend of mine, and Barack is no Ronald Reagan!

I guess Obama is trying to pull another JFK to try and get votes...

Bailo, come on, try and get votes? Obama has already got them. It's your candidate that isn't getting enough votes-remember?

You are going to need to be very drunk or very high (or both) come the 4th! Have a great evening!

*Sometimes I wonder though if you are fictional, added to just get a rise out of all of us?

The message is real. But...
Since Reagan is dead, and therefore could not possibly endorse any candidate, I think it's just wrong.

This video is awesome. And no, it is not a misappropriation of President Reagan's position. It merely uses his powerfully delivered argument in the service of a different, less radical, less destructive candidate than either President Bush or Senator McCain.
