Description
Ronald ReaganWhether you liked him or not, you have to admit that Ronald Reagan lived his life with class. He was-after all-a classically trained actor, and his actions were usually extraordinarily smooth in their composition. This smoothness with which he handled his interpersonal relations garnered him the nickname, "The Great Communicator". But many in the past 30 years since the Reagan Presidency and the decade since his death in 2004 have found themselves asking the question, "Just how much of Reagan's act-was an act?" When Reagan frightened the Soviets into submission by getting on television and claiming that the United States was about to unleash a Hollywood styled, strategic defence initiative of high tech laser weapons floating in space known euphemistically as "Star Wars" they believed it.
Inside you will read about...✓ A Life Worth Saving✓ Goodbye Hollywood
✓ The Road to Conservatism
✓ The Revolution Begins
✓ Honey I Forgot to Duck!
✓ The Great Communicator
✓ Reagan's Last Word
And much more! Much later it would be learned that Star Wars was just as fictional as its Sci Fi namesake, Reagan was citing speculative theory as if it were scientific fact. But the greater mystery is; did Ronald Reagan know that? Was it a supreme bluff, was just it the Poker Face he held up to the Soviets? Or was Reagan-as some have claimed-so in the thralls of his latent Alzheimer's that he had come to believe the very fictional role he was playing? Whatever it was it worked. In what some have hailed as the greatest political stunt of all time, the Soviet Union determined that with it's faltering economy there was no way it could compete with the United States new orbiting laser platform-the same laser platform that only existed in Reagan's mind-and quickly sought peace with the west, arms reduction, and reform at home as a means of survival. These measures would eventually lead to the end of the Cold War itself. An amazing achievement, in a relatively short period of time, but the question remains; did Ronald Reagan really know what he was doing?
