Ronald Reagan is and was the most talented orator I've ever heard. He flows so evenly and with such grace. He could tell you the White House was nuked this morning and everybody wouldn't have one concern after he tells the public,...it will be ok, we will rise above this and overcome this small mountain. Fear not fellow Americans, we will survive. All with that tone that would calm a hurricane on your front lawn. Too bad he is not with us. He wouldn't have any problem being re-elected.

The Dean Martin Roasts were more dignified than Comedy Central's. But there were plenty of risqué jokes. They were just delivered in a dignified manner. Dean Martin was a class act. A good man. If you get a chance, Reagan had his turn on the hot seat. That whole roast was hilarious, but Don Rickles just killed it! Had Reagan in stitches!
It was less adversarial, and Hollywood hadn't become a leftist monoculture as it is today, where the only conservatives who dare let anyone know it are the ones like Clint Eastwood who are already established. In this panel, you had Gene Kelly and Orson Welles, who were politically liberal, along with Jimmy Stewart, who was staunchly conservative (and yet a close, lifelong friend to Henry Fonda, another arch-liberal). You don't see that much today, where leftist celebrities routinely nastily express their contempt for anyone not sharing their leftist views.
Ending the cold war? That was the Soviet union mate,they decided they had enough,they never achieved real communism. Maybe he was the best for the citizens of USA, but he was a catastrophe for the world,speculating, initiating wars, arming terrorists,destroying healthy economies that didnt go with the neoliberal agenda that BTW made millions of Americans poor and starting the stupid war on drugs,which is nothing else then to take control over the drug trade. He was one of the most evil man of his time.
Watching this and watching todays roasts, like the roast of Tom Brady makes me realise how far down we fell. It is just beautiful to see that once, long ago, people had class.
I watch with tears in my eyes. How I miss these wonderful people. There is no one around these days that come close to them. I have been truly Blessed to have been born when I was.

I was a young teenager during the Regean era and remember him setting an almost magical and joyful tone in the USA. I'm Canadian who had Grandparents, aunts and uncles with winter homes in Bradenton Florida. Regean was a special man with class and charm and moral fortitude. Good men are the truly great men in history.
I was a teenager throughout his two terms. America loved him, and rightfully so. The economy was great, the Soviet Union was collapsing, and Americans were proud of their country. The Left went to work immediately trying to rewrite history and brainwashing the next generation into believing things were bad. And now we have ignorant sheep preaching the insane ravings of their Marxist professors, cut from the smoldering ruins of that very same failed "empire." Today's "woke" crowd believe history, like gender, is malleable. IDIOTS!
That was a special time. Hard to believe over 40 years ago. You just can't explain it to someone who didn't live thru it. Just a happy wide open decade. I hope to see it again but I'm doubtful. I'm tired of the drudgery from our country.
I enjoy watching this clip over and over. Glimpses of a bygone era. Life was much simpler then. And there was honor amongst most politicians. We won't ever see this again.
Im depressed,sad and lonely right now in my life ....but i feel like i have a froend for life listening to Ronald Reagan (RIP) such a witty and humble soul
A needed respite. Three minutes of pure joy watching and listening to the man who would become the greatest president. What a brilliant orator. Now back to reality of the cesspool that is today's comedy and mass media.
President Reagan loved his eloquence. What a wonderful President. Sinatra, Rickles, Dean Martin and the others. What class acts. No swearing, no vulgarity, funny and classy. Take me back
He was funny as shit in clever and witty way, and his deliverance was spot on!! He was smart, humble, funny, he could laugh to himself also. Im not saying he was perfect, NO. But he was a good man, good president for the US. When his first term started he was allmost 70y old, cold war was on full swing, Breznev era USSR didnt show any signes of crumbling or anything like that. Then Reagan pretty soon got shot and survived it and publicly forgave his assailant and returned to his president duties fully recovered. He boosted economy in US, 80s was era of plenty, one year after his 2nd term ended DDR collapsed, 3,5 years after USSR collapsed. He probaply did more than any single person did to crush communism in Europe. Gorbatzhev too deserves credit for his politics, he too was a man who tried to make life better for average people in his country, probaply first and only leader with that quality in ussr history. He tried to bring ussr out of dark ages and he was willing to speak and deal with Americans more openly than any of his predecessors. Reagan kickstarted US economy and sorta turned the ship around and fixed Carters mistakes, he somewhat re-established the power of US in foreign policy and he didnt look only what could be done to benefit his country, his legacy lies in ending the cold war and bringing down communism in Europe. Without firing a shot. God bless you Ronald Reagan.

There are many people who praise Obama for being a down to earth leader. How I wish I could show them all this. I hope and pray one day, we stop being so divided over politics.
And America shoved him away like he was some sort of monster, after loving him for decades, and then hated him when, he as a billionaire, accepted a paycheck of just 1-Dollar for running the entire country.
Were you made the check was $600? Trump wanted to give the usa $2,000 and codependents $600. The government turned it down. No one lost $1,400, we were turned down $2,000. It's always been the government that ruins us.
This is great! I was looking for my own TH-cam of my "Lt. Columbo" impersonation when I found Peter Falk and Ronald Reagan on other TH-cams, all relative to "Dean Martin's Celebrity Roasts" of Frank Sinatra...I was truly pleased to see "Columbo," Ronald Reagan, Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra all together for the fun, as I professionally impersonate all of them, like Rich Little, who also was a Roaster...great video, thank you!

I love seeing shot of all the old stars of years past I grew up with. Reagan sounded almost like he was president already.

My god roasts have taken a serious leap in cruel cutting insults

There are many people who praise Obama for being a down to earth leader. How I wish I could show them all this.
I hope and pray one day, we stop being so divided over politics.
Obama's skin colour was his ONLY ticket to the presidency!!!
BOTH
Ronald Reagan had amazingly great hair, well coiffed. Handsome chap indeed.
Back in the day when parties competed,not destroyed one another
"It will only hit photographers"
Regan was pure class 🙏❤️
“Is it worth it if you have to give up being a king”
Yo that’s what Trump did
And America shoved him away like he was some sort of monster, after loving him for decades, and then hated him when, he as a billionaire, accepted a paycheck of just 1-Dollar for running the entire country.

Were you made the check was $600? Trump wanted to give the usa $2,000 and codependents $600. The government turned it down. No one lost $1,400, we were turned down $2,000. It's always been the government that ruins us.
@@jrr6947 people would've still loved him if he ran as a Democrat, but he fucked his own reputation up
I know Mr Reagan handled himself pretty well, but ask yourself...could "81 million people" have really been wrong? Let's Go, Brandon!
Dont blame his voters; they were dead when they voted for him!
would have been nice if he won in 76

paul mallon no it wouldn’t have. The timing wasn’t right. 1980 was the best year for Reagan.
The timing wasn't right for a win, but the result would have been better. Just think of the trouble we'd have saved.
President Ronald Reagan is truly one of a kind❤️❤️❤️🇺🇸
Class Act!!!
The best president America ever had. Ronnie.
This is great! I was looking for my own TH-cam of my "Lt. Columbo" impersonation when I found Peter Falk and Ronald Reagan on other TH-cams, all relative to "Dean Martin's Celebrity Roasts" of Frank Sinatra...I was truly pleased to see "Columbo," Ronald Reagan, Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra all together for the fun, as I professionally impersonate all of them, like Rich Little, who also was a Roaster...great video, thank you!
I’ve never seen so much talent in one room😦
I miss Reagan's sense of humor and class he brought to the US.
“Is it worth it if you have to give up being a king” damn what a praise getting it from the president!
Ronald Regan was a gentlemen from the word go. He had so much class and was a wonderful man. I loved him. He was a great President. I miss him terribly. I cried when he left us. Everyone at Franks roast was great. They don’t n never will make them like that again. All the greats were on that stage. It’s so sad to think that their all gone. I was so lucky to have grown up watching them. Entertainers like them only come around once in a lifetime!
R.I.P. Ronald Reagan and Frank Sinatra.
Classy wit and humor. Classy roast! 👍

Yes, everything is. Insane!
Reagan is such a cool guy. No off color jokes just good clean humor. Being born in dec 84’, I can say as a Reagan baby, I sure miss him.
Cue cards.

Well done, Mr. President. I served our military while you were our POTUS.
