Ronald Reagan is to this date the oldest serving president, and the effects of his presidency have affected not only the United States of America but most of the world as well. The consensus among historians is that Ronald Reagan left a lasting legacy that was a great one in numerous ways. His Reaganomics improved America’s economy greatly, and secured its future economic prosperity. He also fought communism head on and was able to end it in most parts of the world, but more importantly in Soviet Russia. However, in doing so he got wrapped up in the Iran-Contra Affair, which will forever be tied to his name in a negative regard. Within America, Reagan was able to improve society such as his success in curbing the use of illegal drugs.

President Ronald Reagan, the man who is accredited with ended the forty six year cold war was elected on Nov. 4, 1980. Reagan won his election with fifty percent of the popular vote over former President Jimmy Carter who had forty one percent. While Reagan as a president is praised for such successes as strengthening the national defense, stimulating growth in the U.S. economically, and as mentioned before he is considered the President who ended the Cold War. President Reagan had achieved many things by the end of his administration, but just as he had many successes his presidency was plagued with shortcomings and a handful of what could be considered flat out failures.

The United States has the highest rates of poverty and income inequality among any developed nation due to economic policies that prevent economic growth, a welfare system that has created a culture of dependence, and a decline in marriage. As evidenced by the current administration’s policies, high taxes and heavy regulations do not help the economy to grow. These prevent businesses and industries from growing, which in turn increases unemployment and the poverty level. Fifty years since President Johnson’s announcement of the War on Poverty, the poverty rate is reported by the Census Bureau to be currently 14.5% which is approximately the same as it was in 1967, three years into the war. This means that the War on Poverty has had essentially

Reagan is one of the worst presidents we have ever had. In November of 1986 the people found out that the government was secretly selling weapons and bombs to Iran in hopes that 5 american soldiers would be freed. Reagan also funded billions of dollars of weapons and training to Afghan freedom fighters, a lot of which attacked us. Many years later he also gave amnesty to over 3 million illegal immigrants, something conservatives today would be furious about. He gave amnesty because they

     As a young man, Reagan is cast as a 'B -list actor', goes through a public marriage and divorce, and serves on active duty in WWII. Cannon uses these experiences as evidence in Reagan's development as a driven individual. Cannon demonstrates Reagan's drive and political prowess in an example involving Reagan as the Screen Actors Guild President where he famously attempts to eliminate Communist's involvement in film. Reagan testifies against communists controlling the film industry and comes across sensible and restrained; an advantage Cannon believes Reagan uses throughout his life.

The phenomenon dubbed the “Reagan Revolution,” can have its roots traced back decades, as early as the 1950s. It is important to start in this era, as it sets the stage for the 60s, which ultimately leads into the 70s and 80s, as history tends to portray a cause and effect relationship. Each of these generations contribute to this revolution of conservatism becoming the most popular view in the nation because of their cultural and social elements, with the 60s being the most important period. However, there is also an effect that stems from the previous Presidents, and their governing abilities, or lack thereof, that held office before Reagan. Ultimately, it is a blend of these two components at the same time in their respective decades,

Ronald Reagan, born in Tampico, Illinois, had a modest upbringing from parents whose values contrasted considerably. His mother, Nelle, was a dedicated prohibitionist and religious woman. She often participated in performing for the sick through music and reading, allowing Ronald to assist. This early exposure to performing for others probably contributed to his desire to be part of the entertainment industry. Ronald’s father, Jack, a polarity of Nelle, was an alcoholic and he had difficulties maintaining employment. Jack had little involvement in his children’s lives and he rarely attended school activities to show support. Neil, Ronald’s older brother, relates most to his father while Ronald seems to be most attached to his mother.

“We're not, as some would have us believe, doomed to an inevitable decline. I do not believe in a fate that will fall on us no matter what we do. I do believe in a fate that will fall on us if we do nothing. So, with all the creative energy at our command, let us begin an era of national renewal. Let us renew our determination, our courage, and our strength. And let us renew our faith and our hope.” –Ronald Reagan, First Inaugural Address

Ronald Reagan had many successes and many failures during his presidency. In the first paragraph I will be going over his 3 main successes. Which are his economic policies, ending the Cold War, and the war on drugs. The first success that we are covering today was his economic policies or as they are more widely known as “Reaganomics”. This was his plan to make cuts in 4 major areas which were the growth of government spending, income and capital gains tax, the regulations that were in place for businesses, and he wanted to expand the money supply. Reagan's theory with this plan was that if you cut taxes for businesses they would have more money to expand their business and hire more workers. It also says that the income tax incentivises workers

As President, Ronald Reagan encountered many significant events; from surviving an assassination attempt, to the space shuttle Challenger disaster. Perhaps the most significant event was the economic downturn. He came to office (much like President Obama) in the midst of an economic crisis; however, President Reagan was able to turn the economy around. How did he do this? In order to answer this question, you must first ask what the economy was like when he was sworn into office, how his policy changed from the prior administration’s policy, and how it contrasts our present economic policy.
