I have a pretty poor impression of Ronald Reagan. Did then, do now. His philosophy of looting the country for the sake of the rich has led us to where we are now, and has ruined America - for perhaps a very, very long time - if not actually sewn the seeds of our Empire's doom.
His actions, or rather inactions, on the AIDS crisis make him nothing short of a cold-blooded murderer in my book.
I won't even get started on Iran-Contra or his warmongering. But let me leave off that he was a doddering old man who creeped me out, and it amazed me that so many people found him a charming grandfatherly figure. He was pretty much evil in my book. Proto-Palpatine.
