That is funny. Do you think that many blacks would vote on him today if they only could?

Knowing what we know about him now, I don't think anyone would vote for him. People accuse him of being senile during his terms.

Republican votes treat him like a legend. I did not have much contact with Democrats. Anyway, those who blame him for being senile in first place are part of major group of democratic votes. I mean voters that are unable to think in political categories, thus they form their objections on personal feelings.

It seems like you prefer the American right to the Polish right, lesser. Would that be a fair observation?

I have quite good opinion especially about 'early America' and traditional platform of the Republican party. By no way neocons should be considered rightist. In Poland only political platform of UPR would be interesting, however this is minor party without much of chance to even be represented in our parliament. By the way, they currently negotiate with Ganley.

American and European politics are more and more leftist. Neocons run GOP and so called Polish mainstream right is mentally very socialistic. For example media label PiS to be rightist, while president Kaczynski claim himself to be leftist. Recently he nominated knew economic advisor, Ryszard Bugaj who is a very honest person (and very incompetent as far as economy is concentrated), former member of leftist UP party. Should I add anything?

Reagan pops up in some of my lessons. He is worthy of more discussion for his dialogue with Gorbachev. I agree with lesser that neocons should not be considered as rightists of Reagan's ilk. Reagan would likely have not accepted the Wolfowitz Doctrine which is unconstitutional.
