Ronald Wilson Reagan
Fortieth President of the United States (1981–1989)
33rd Governor of California (1967–1975)
Radio, Film and Television Actor

On ‘God and Democracy’

Biography
Ronald Wilson Reagan (February 6, 1911 – June 5, 2004) was the 40th President of the United States (1981–1989). Prior to that, he was the 33rd Governor of California (1967–1975), and a radio, film and television actor. As president, Reagan implemented sweeping new political and economic initiatives. His supply-side economic policies, dubbed "Reaganomics", advocated reducing tax rates to spur economic growth, controlling the money supply to reduce inflation, deregulation of the economy, and reducing government spending. In his first term he survived an assassination attempt, took a hard line against labor unions, and ordered an invasion of Grenada. He was re-elected in a landslide in 1984, proclaiming that it was "Morning in America". His second term was primarily marked by foreign matters, such as the ending of the Cold War, the 1986 bombing of Libya, and the revelation of the Iran-Contra affair. Publicly describing the Soviet Union as an "evil empire", he supported anti-communist movements worldwide and spent his first term forgoing the strategy of détente by ordering a massive military buildup in an arms race with the USSR. Reagan negotiated with Soviet General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev, culminating in the INF Treaty and the decrease of both countries' nuclear arsenals.

Reagan left office in 1989. In 1994, the former president disclosed that he had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease earlier in the year; he died ten years later at the age of 93. A conservative icon, he ranks highly in public opinion polls of U.S. Presidents and is credited for generating an ideological renaissance on the American political right. » Full Bio

Linkster’s thoughts...
Obama Has Made President John Adams’ Words Null and Void
Today, ‘Obamacare,’ otherwise known as the ‘Affordable Care Act,’ strips Americans of their God-given right of freedom to choose and make their own health care choices and forces Americans to obey man rather than God. Obamacare enslaves the nation from the cradle to the grave. Obamacare was never about health and longevity for all, but rather, it is all about the “fundamental transformation of America” from a free Republic to a socialist nation, the redistribution of wealth, and the euthanasia of an entire generation, America’s senior citizens, together with the terminally ill and the millions of unborn babies through forced taxpayer-funded abortions.

Today, sick Americans are dying in America because Obamacare cancelled their health insurance and they cannot afford the cost of health care under Obamacare. They are dying as the Democratic Senate Majority Leader from Utah, Senator Harry Reid, stands and calls these dying Americans “Liars!”
