Of the cases listed, I think the most serious case involving Ronald Reagan. Reagan was suspected of indecencies which was in close association with the study of the Iran-Contra litigation and the Wedtech deceitful justification case (Friedrichs, 2009). As the president of the United States, people viewed Reagan as an omnipresent “sleaze factor;” the public began to view him as being pessimism because as the president his duty was to be upright, trustworthy, honest ,and fair but these are the things that he lacked throughout his time in office. More than 200 associates that were affiliated with the Regan administration were scrutinized for moral or illegal misconduct (Friedrichs, 2009). This is the largest number of sandals that any United States
In the late 1970s, Americans tired of counterculture and political scandal turned to more conservative political solutions and Reagan was their guy. Ronald Reagan, arguably was one of the greatest men to step into the Oval Office. He had a strong work ethic and a love for America. Reagan was the son of John and Nelle Reagan and was born in Tampico Illinois on February 6, 1911 and died on June 6, 2004 in his lovely house in Bel-Aire, LA . Prior to Reagan’s first wife, Jane Wyman, he served in the Army during World War 2, but was discharged due to his poor eyesight in 1943. In 1940, when Reagan was filming for his first film he met Jane Wyman and married her, they had a daughter and adopted a son. During Reagan’s seven year contract with Warner
Ronald Regan was the president of the United States in the 1980s before John Hinckley shot him dead to impress actor Jodie Foster. He made some domestic and foreign policies that were successful and others were a major failure in his reign. One of the major policies that were a success during his tenure was the tax cuts of the 1981. He signed this Act on August, which were a major reduction in the domestic expenditure, as well as the Economic Recovery Act of 19981. The Act was designed to reduce the domestic expenditure amounting to 3 billion. He wrote a letter to the Speaker of the House to propose the supplemental appropriations as well as the amendments on 10 March that year.
During the presidencies of liberals, like Franklin D. Roosevelt and Lyndon B. Johnson, there were a number of government assistance program programs put in place to benefit the people and help the government regulate society. However, many of these program where dismantled in the 1980s and 1990s. Due to the work of President Reagan, President Bush Sr., and President Bush Jr., they were able to cut back the role of the federal government, and supported labor unions and regulatory structures.
Ronald Reagan made many economic decisions that supported his beliefs in Social Darwinism throughout his presidency. Social Darwinism is considered to be the ideas of struggle for existence and “survival of the fittest,” a term coined by Herbert Spencer in order to justify social policies. Over time the individuals with superior biological characteristics will dominate populations that this super species possessed. Couples who possessed these special qualities would then pass them down to their offspring, creating an elite generation in the modern world.

There has been alot of war, love and peace rallies, there is gay pride, trying to get the drug to pass in all states some states passed for marijuna and trying to keep the world peace with other countries instead of fighting with them. A lot of people thought Reagan was an idiot because he did not care for anything else but his own thing that he strongly believes. From what I have heard people talk about Reagan and how good he was and there was some cons about him in some ways. Reagan was the leader of the american conservation and he did succeeded in moving the nation into the right terms in the right way. He also lowered the taxes to see if it would help the solution. The reform offered the women in middle class to have the first opportunity
In conclusion, if one wishes to talk about the Trump administration and of the path that they had, and have, been focusing on for this year and in the future, they do not have to look too far. After all, Trump and Reagan both same strong similarities on how they are approaching the lawmaking and policymaking agenda in our government, to which is the focus of creating a stronger and more stable economy. As a result, they tend to follow the ideals of Reaganomics, in which favors tax cuts, deregulation, and increasing our military budget. However, as of now, in the first year of Trump’s presidency, it would appear as though that he is not doing that great of a job when it comes to following his ideals. While he has made some amount of progress
President Ronald Reagan utilizes rhetorical devices in his speech in order to effectively convince the people of Berlin to seek peace, prosperity, and liberalization by taking down the Berlin Wall. To convince the Berlin people to perform this action, Reagan uses ethos, pathos, and logos in his speech. Ronald Reagan uses the rhetorical device, ethos, when he states, "I understand the fear of war and the pain of division that afflict this continent-- and I pledge to you my country's efforts to help overcome these burdens. To be sure, we in the West must resist Soviet expansion.

Ronald Regan, even after 20 years absent of state office, still manages to captivate American patriotism. As an upheld memorabilia of the United States, Reagan was well renounced as one of the nations most revered public figures. Ronald Reagan was born and raised in the small town of Tampico, Illinois, on February 6, 1911. Given Ronald’s childhood; Reagans Father had been employed as a shoe salesman at the time of Reagans birth, and his family (which included his mother, brother and father) inhabited calamitous housing that consisted of insufficient plumbing/running water and the geographical location was that of an “abnormal residency”. In essence, Reagan experienced an ecosystem that of the “common people” during maturing alterations. As Reagan progressed through high school he enrolled in extracurricular clubs such as student body council, school performances and even athletic activities. During Reagans well rounded & auspicious adolescence; Reagan’s father, Jack, had incoherent job occupation and the Reagans were swept with inconsistent shifting of lifestyles. Jack and Nelle (Reagan’s mother) were both devoted Democrats given the time. Jack belonged to the Roman Catholics, and Nelle was an active member of the Disciples of Christ. In 1932, Jack Reagan was rewarded for his Democratic activism by being named the local director of the Works Progress Administration, a federal agency created by Roosevelt to provide work for jobless Americans.

I have decided to write my research paper on the topic of Ronald Reagan's Domestic and Foreign Affairs. The reason that I choose this topic was because I have always been personally interested in Ronald Reagan's time in office and the national crisis he had to deal with. Reagan was awesome when it came to foreign policy because he knew how to negotiate with foreign leaders and their countries to get what he wanted. There were several instances during his time in office that he had the chance to use his ability to get the country out of danger. Domestic Affairs is another part of Reagan's presidency that was very important. He was able to take the country, which seemed to be in an economic slump and turn their economic status around.

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.
In a time when America was at an all time low, a retired actor from a small town in Illinois would rally Americans to stand together and overcome a crumbling economy, communism, growing foreign tensions with the middle east, and to wage war on the home front against the use and spread of drugs. To many all around the world , this man would become the savior of America.
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 purpose of this writing is to establish and identify the ‘cons’ or failures of the Reagan administration, and provide a brief description of each different aspect of the administration.
