And Obama received twice the media coverage Reagan did, imagine that.

He wins on the jobs creation agenda as well, Reagan CREATED 16 million jobs during his administration of eight years, while Obama wants to create 2,3,or 4 million in his first term. How come the magic man can't offer up 8 million in his first term? I guess raising taxes on the job creators kinda drops the expectations, when tax hikes are a real job killer.

You say twice the media coverage? Most AMericans only got 3 or 4 TV stations back in 1980. I get two hundred via Dish Network.

I was a sophomore in high school when Reagan was elected President in 1980/81. We had a whopping 13 channels via cable. (ABC/NBC/CBS) were the "news" channels back in the day.

Wow. And Reagan is still dead. Imagine that.

And Ronald Reagan is considered one of the greatest Presidents in U.S. history, imagine that.

525 Electoral Votes in the Election for Ronald Wilson Reagan too.
How many did the black kid get?

Imagine that indeed! Yep, you need a really active imagination to keep that one going

"Considered" by whom? Will this myth never die? Must be it be dug up and paraded around when the conservatives run out of blankies to suck on?

uhh... yeah. And more people vote for an American Idol than a U.S. President. Who cares?

And without an electoral college! Okay maybe the odd frat boy voting and all.
