Reagan's leagacy to me & my family

[Angus McGee]

In watching the ceremonies before we left to work and school this morning, my 9 year old daughter saw all the fuss and asked me a very important question.

"Daddy, what made him so great?"

My answer was simple, and came immediately. In the short answer, I summed up President Reagan's greatness.

"Sweetie, there used to be this thing called communism."

The very fact that she had never even heard of such a thing spoke of the tremendous achievements of a great man.

I went on to explain the horrors of communism in terms a 4th grader could understand, and I believe she got a small taste of the appreciation her parent's generation, and her parent's parent's generation had for President Reagan.

Now, I understand communism still exists in a few nations around the earth, but their threat is no where near the threat it was before Jan 20, 1981.

This country and this planet is a better, safer place because of President Reagan.

That is absolutely indisputable ! (Unless you have a tin foil hat on your head)
