And as a follow up question; I know he is loved here, but why are other countries building statues of him?
Poland to erect statue to Reagan
WARSAW (AFP) — A statue is to be erected in the heart of the Polish capital, Warsaw, in memory of Ronald Reagan, the late US president whom many Poles credit with helping to end communism.

I am young. Help me understand. The world loves Reagan but American liberals don't?

"Reagan rates as an average to above average President by qualified academics and historians"
Thanks for the laugh. Academics? You mean liberals. Who cares what the Academics think? I care what America thinks!

49 states, he lost DC and Minnesota. DC counts as a loss, sorry.
As a Democrat, I'll tell you he was very respected in his time by Americans. He was respected world-wide, and stood up to evil.
Reagan made people feel good!

regardless of the nonsense being slung by utilising conservatives right here so some distance, if issues stay as they're headed, Obama is amazingly unlikely to lose in 2012. in case you seem on the solutions so some distance, who has each and every person provided up as somebody Obama might desire to agonize approximately? Huckabee? The earth is 5,000 years old Huckabee? If basically Fox information watchers are allowed to vote in 2012, Huckabee has a brilliant threat. otherwise, nada. The financial equipment has already stabilized particularly. If Obama is considered as having wiped sparkling up greater than a number of George Bush's mess, there is not any longer plenty threat he won't get yet another 4 years. The wild card in this mess is yet another family individuals attack by utilising Islamic terrorists, something that many in John McCain's camp have been privately hoping for interior the days before the election. The howling from the final if this variety of element occurs will reason severe listening to loss everywhere in the rustic. otherwise, faster or later, the Republicans will might desire to arise with some suggestions, different than calling Democrats nasty names, or attacking Nancy Pelosi's seems. the point that they've sunk to, nicely, all you will possibly desire to comprehend is that Newt (serve the divorce papers jointly as she's in mattress with maximum cancers) Gingrich is lower back interior the combination. For good guy: Obama's approval score right this moment could be sixty 5%. What interior the international are you speaking approximately?

49 and he only lost Minnesota by less than 5 thousand votes. This is exactly the results you get when you run a candidate that is clearly conservative against a candidate that is clearly not. I reiterate my point. Most Americans are conservative, they just do not realize it. When Reagan spoke directly to the people, explaining in easy to understand terms exactly what his conservative principles were they found that they shared them, too.
Like most real conservatives, Reagan was always confident, polite and of good cheer. He was proud to be an American and many, many Americans were, too. Let's face it, a lot of Democrats voted for him putting the lie to the assumption that all Democrats are liberals. Which explains why no Democrat running for the presidential nomination has ever labeled themselves as a liberal since.
The conclusion? If you are a liberal you are out of step with the rest of America. The vast majority is not liberal.

Answer: In 1984 our press reported a landslide...48 States and an overwhelming percentage of the individual votes...The "Electoral" are connected with the amount of Representatives to each state and therefore yet another landslide...(Correct?)
In Ireland, Ronald Wilson Reagan, is perceived as the epitome of honor and strength...Ask your American liberals...What about that is not to like?

Reagan rates as an average to above average President by qualified academics and historians. His reputation here is filled with patriotic gore, but, I liked him and enjoyed reading his diary last spring immensely.

Great is great. It's undeniable.
And the libs don't use logic. They just spew the same old diatribe that they have been told from their like.
You can't let them get to you.
There is an old saying that works well.... If you are young and you are not a liberal then you have no heart...
If you are older and are not a Conservative then you have NO BRAIN!
It works really well. haha. But there are a few of us out there that were always intelligent from the start. Nice to see you are one of us!

Double R was a great man for Cons/Reps. Lib's hate him for the jealousy reason, and how he beat the hell out of their hero Jimmy Carter & made him, to this day, a punchline.
Reagan was a great Pres. for all of America; the left has no one to compare because past great Dem Presidents never shared their socialist ideas. In todays world FDR & Kennedy would have been Republican.

49 plus DC (DC is not a state).
Mondale won Minnesota, his home state.
