Ronald Reagan was wrong on many things, but it can not be denied that he was a leader who brought together people who had not previously voted for Republican candidates. These people are sometimes called "Reagan Democrats," and they were the key to his ability to win in back-to-back landslide elections.
It is clear to me that Barack Obama is clearly a progressive leader with the potential to bring together a diverse coalition for progressive change just as Ronald Reagan brought together a diverse coalition for conservative change.
Amen, I couldn't have said it better myself. Thanks for checking out my blog.
