Negative Positive
Title: A presidential scholar
Review: Ronald Reagan restored a sense of pride in America after Watergate and the ho-hum administrations of Ford and Carter. He made us proud to be Americans as he dipped into our pockets with his Reaganomics. George Bush, while campaigning against Reagan in 1980 called Reagan's economic policies "voodoo economics". Maybe he was on to something. During the Reagan-Bush years we had the highest unemployment rate since the Great Depression. We had more banks fail than at any time except the Great Depression. The crime rate was up the budget deficit was the highest ever. The trade deficit was the highest it has ever been. Yes, Reagan was a great president if all this is great. Reagan's charisma sold us a bill of goods except on patriotism to the point of jingoism and if you believe they tore down the Berlin Wall because he told Gorbechev to tear it down I have a bridge for sale.
