HTF does Reagan have a 78% approval rating after all the messed up ish he did? I wonder who voted in this poll, because they clearly must not know (or care) that Reagan was the main guy who opened up this can of worms on the middle class/poor callled "trickle-down". He pandered to bigots, and even went after the Black Panther Party in office (they were in fact the main reason he got behind gun control in the first place). And he did away with the Fairness Doctrine, so that FOX News and Limbaugh-type hosts dominate the media now.

How do so many people have rose-colored glasses of him?
