I like that.

But conservatives are going to lose their shit seeing their idol Reagan, the bad B-movie actor, being used to promote Obama.

^It's not an official campaign ad, just a Obama supporter video.

That sums it all up. Brilliant.

It's pretty clever. Esp coming from Reagan, who raided Social Security funds to build the defense system "Star Wars" that never materialized...and then put us into billions of dollars of debt.

But Carter was so bad domestically, and the economy was so bad we wanted change and got Reagan. Look like everything is coming full circle. And why do I even care?

Well, that's it in a nutshell, isn't it. And quite frankly, I'll take Obama over a Hollywood hasbeen any day of hte week.

Wow, I think the Reagan-Obama comparison is waaay off.

More recently, we had the elder Bush in office, continuing Reagan's awful legacy, and we were in a bad recession with a huge national debt, and Bush was beaten as an incumbent (a huge vote of no confidence) by the upstart young Bill Clinton. And the Clinton administration turned the economy around.

Our problems are worse than the ones Clinton inherited, but it can be done again.

I know it's not an ad, but Reagan is still making a case for Obama in it. That's all Reagan-lovers need to see.

It would be like a McCain supporter making a video with Martin Luther King in it and having him making a case for McCain.

Great video.. scary how it applies to today as it did back then.

The McCain disciples will lose their shit, though. They don't want 'one of them' supporting 'that one.'

I suddenly have a new favorite video. It really speaks to me... I think everyone needs to see this., Republicans and Democrats alike. I'm gonna email it to everyone I know.
