>The jury is still out on Obama. But I will never back off about JFK. The thing that is already receding into the rocky mists of time is how inspirational he was. As just one example, the Peace Corps was established. Young college grads traveled to the poorest nations on earth to work for little or nothing, postponing their careers. Who on the recent landscape has had that kind of influence? Vowing to put a man on the moon is another example. They all think so small now, both parties.
Ronald Reagan did more to inspire than JFK ever thought of doing. Reagan single handedly brought down the Berlin Wall, restored pride in America, restored pride in the Military and brought a national fever pitch back to this country. It was a great ride during the 80's to be in the military.
