Ronald Reagan was our best President. Period. He wasn't perfect. Just the best.
And today's times call for nothing less than the best. The Regan Revolution was more than a political scheme to bankroll power. It was a movment based on the solid principles of capitalism, moral discipline, economic leadership and international security. Reagan's presidency set-down the foundation on which America became the premier power in the world. Without his strategic vision, we would be far more entrenched in a world scheme dominated by Stalinist terrorism.
Is there anybody in today's political system able to take his mantle? Does such a person exist? Or should the question really be: is there a community of people who could make a New Regan Revolution possible?
Ronnie's gone, but his legacy and ideas are not. The limbs of the American body move through a dangerous time, which is to say opportunity abounds. At one end it is being eaten alive by mindless consumerism; on another, it is being stalked by predatory fanaticism; and from within it is being infected by socialist greed.
As I see it, the only solution is a leadership of principled vision. That vision never loses sight of three key principles: freedom, long-term capitalism, and moral courage.
