      The Communism of America originally started in 1776; none of us were born until 230+ years later. We knew nothing of this country "so-called" United States until we went to school and learned the nation's standard system of management and social maintenance. We were never free and just settlers made money off this country, land property value, precious medals, commodities, energy, banks, stocks, bonds, printed fake money to own people once branded with a SS number 9-digt at birth until death like a concentration number of Neo-Nazism... any asset for wealth value they made off of people and stole. Since the Hollywood Zionists migrated to the US, their descendants completely dominated the nation, through porn, sex, fashion, perfume, acting, and etc... We were never a free country just an affront misinterpretation tat we were really free, we've become an extension of the Babylonian, Egyptian, and Roman Empires, leading up to the first European Union in 1706, that's all. We're not a nation of the people just a market; we're a nation mislead as gullible civilians to be forced of misplacement in our lives by left-wing dictator pertinent advisors, and even through even our parents, or relatives of families. This nation is about control, not convenience for everyone to enjoy for hard worked freedom. Today if you work for an employer, it's just the modern day version of slavery, with little money in your paycheck to barely survive or save for anyone's future and counted by book keeping of what lieu you receive can't even keep all of it, but get net pay and taxes withheld; the FED can print money at any random time to cut the charge of the debt of taxation spent. 18 trillion in capital bankruptcy and rising. But they mendaciously refuse and resist paying any interest to the default of the debt overspent from irregular relinquishment of financial delinquency.

    "We hold these truths self-evident that all men are created equal, endowed by their creator to be self-rightous of friendship to be impartial to each other... without the mental invasion for social preservation or purpose government relations, having tendencies to invade the mischaracterizations of the American free men and women." Part of Dr. King's speech 1968 RIP April 4th his assassination. RIP a great man Dr. King was.

    @jaguar1945 I too miss the great President Ronald Reagan...more today than yesterday, more than I ever realized I that I would. This man very possibly was the greatest President this country was ever blessed to have as our leader. I long for those days. Look where we are today...God help us.

    Great speech by President Reagan! He was what this country needed after four disastrous years of Carter's administration. If I'm not mistaken, was this Ronald Reagan's last ever State of the Union address? I believe that's House Speaker Jim Wright seated next to Vice President George H.W. Bush, is it not? Ever since Mr. Reagan's presidency, the four men who have since been President didn't have the spirit, determination & class Ronald Reagan exhibited. God Bless You, President Reagan. R.I.P..

    Line item veto. Sure, as long as the remaining bill is put up to vote again. That could really help, Ron.

    Reagan would be considered a RINO in today's new GOP. I think he would be uncomfortable.

  • @Yobbie72

    Reagan said that he wouldnt recite the accomplishments of his administration and would instead leave that to history....and then he proceeded to then praise his administrations accomplishments to the hilt, lol
