Ronald Reagan's Change Over Time

His presidential election contained a transformation that was at the least of most American’s expectations, with his past of show business.

His knowledge with politics and government has sparked a great growth of a conservative movement in the nation.

What has the power to take a life has the power to preserve it, what has the power to love has the power to hate, what has the power to make the world a better place has the power to ruin it. The monumental power of choice resides in all of us and dictates the course of history. But the choice to live is one right that is being stolen every time a mother says no to the growing baby inside of her. Planned Parenthood is an industry that is worth 1 billion dollars that builds its foundation on the death of one million babies a year.

On the 27th of October in 1964, Ronald Reagan gave a speech called “A Time for Choosing” on behalf of Barry Goldwater. His speech was so popular that it is also known as “The Speech”. Afterwards, Ronald Reagan ,also known as The Great Communicator, was thought of by many people as a great political speaker.

Roland Reagan came into the office during his first term hoping to use his administration to fight communism and end the Cold War. He finds out it was not easy as he thought. So, in his second term he turned to a different strategy getting to know someone like Gorbachev. The conservatives thought he was making a mistake. Roland Reagan’s success finally proved to the conservatives that his friendship with Gorbachev was not a dupe. Gorbachev was not deceitful, but a reformer who wanted to reform, change for Russia and end the Cold War. I agree that no president had subdued Russia, but the economic suppressed them when it collapsed. I enjoyed reading your post.

Serving as the 40th president of the United States from 1981 until 1989, Ronald Reagan’s religiously toned rhetoric and foreign policy initiatives can be seen as a key example of how religion can impact global affairs. Reagan’s religiously centered upbringing, which included membership to the Disciples of Christ and serving as the vice-president of the Hi-Y Club, a part of the Young Men’s Christian Association, which focused on the evangelical and physical fitness of young men, helped to lay the foundation of a presidency that would be highly influenced by religion.

The American people claim Ronald Reagan to be one of the most influential and greatest president, and icon, of all time. He was the man to bring Conservatism officially into the Government.
