President Regan1-tripled US national debt.
2-supported apartheid in south africa.
3-gave financial and logistical support to saddam hussein.
4-gave financial and logistical support to dictators and death squads in central america.
5-illegally sold weapons to iran.
6-illegally gave money to right wing drug-runners in central america.
7-opened up national parks for oil and gas exploration.
8-presided over the largest banking scandal(the s&l debacle)in the history of the united states that eventually cost taxpayers hundreds of billions of dollars.
The fall of communism was nothing to do with anyone else then. Peace wasn't in part to do with Europe or Gorby. No.
Nothing is black and white my friend. It's all shades of grey.

There is one individual in the world that has done moreto fight AIDS in Africa can anyone else. Bush Jr. I'm sure he does some other amazing stuff too. ON BALANCE which is a concept that has clearly passed you by, he's a numpty. Same with Regan. He seemed to be a cool guy, but he wasn't all great.
