I was too young to remember Kennedy Berlin speech, but that was greatest speech of my lifetime. Reagan essentially directed Gorbachev to tear down the wall, and lo and behold, in due course the wall and indeed the USSR came tumbling down. I was fortunate enough to remember that period well.a lot pictures with the article at the site

Reagan Hits The Wall
……. Long before the Wall came down physically, an American president had inflicted the fatal blow when he used the one thing Communism never could deal with: the truth, spoken aloud and publicly.
That president’s name was Ronald Reagan, who sealed the Wall’s fate when he went to Berlin and issued his famous call: “Mr. Gorbahev, tear down this wall.” Even for him it hadn’t started there.
Early on in his presidency he had told a friend his strategy for the Cold War: “We win, and they lose.” [...]
So as the world marks this wonderful victory for freedom, let no one make the mistake of speaking of the “fall of the Berlin Wall.”
The Berlin Wall came down because it was pulled down.

Easily the greatest president in living memory.
They also have Charlie Chaplin statues in Eastern Europe...The people of Eastern Europe build statues honoring the great man who set them free: Ronald Reagan. He called Communism a failure and promised to defeat it as an empire and an ideology. Some people are still fuming that first, he had the courage and wisdom to call Communism a failure, second he vowed to defeat it and third, that he succeeded. All in the space of a 2 Presidential terms.
Can you imagine the freedom and prosperity we could unleash here in the USA by turning away from the flawed, failed "You didn't build that!" ideology and embracing free enterprise and entrepreneurship?

The libs hate Reagan because of his proven policies that worked. You can't argue with success, you either embrace it or lie your ass off and hope someone believes you.
Job growth under Reagan vs. obama

Okay, guy, except that in the process of that, he gutted the middle class and tripled the national debt.
So what did we all get for "Defeating Communism"? What was in it for us?
The reality is, we discovered that the 'Evil Empire" was really a collection of third world countries that didn't get along. and then we wondered why we spent 40 years being terrified of these people.

I'm not a politician so I can say to your face you're a fucking liar.
Prove it.The jobs Reagan created paid less than the ones he lost when he ran up unemployment to beat inflation.
He`s their Jesus? Reaganists keep saying this stuff but they don`t seem to have anything to back them up.Communist supporters hate Reagan because they believe oppression, poverty, misery and slavery are good things.
Reagan opted for Freedom and Optimism and he is revered in Eastern Europe as a savior
