I believe that they all interact by way of historical era and the suffering they experienced in life which are uniting fronts and of great importance when…
Since his service in office, Ronald Reagan has been known to be one of the few presidents that is still glorified today. According to the ABC News Poll, taken in February 16-20, 2000, out of 1,012 adults Reagan was ranked fifth. He was ranked above George Washington and below Franklin D. Roosevelt. As a president I think some of his best leadership characteristics shown while in office were his public persuasion, moral authority, and economic management. Even with his good approval ratings though, there were people who opposed the Reagan era and might ask is President Reagan’s ranking of 5th out of 42 a justified ranking?…
