Coincidentally the day was also marked with the death of former President Ronald Reagan at 93. Even if I live to be 100 years old, it is probable that the greatest president of my lifetime will have been elected when I was two. He reminded the world what it meant to be a leader. He lead the country with conviction and through his beliefs, not by the opinions of focus groups. He couldn’t care about what his detractors had to say about him. He did what he thought was right and had people thanking him for it afterwards. He never tried to be popular leader, just a good one.
It was sad that the press couldn’t refrain from speaking ill of him, slighting him with a dose of class warfare for once last time. His legacy will be fondly remembered my millions of Americans despite what they may say.
