1. So Barak believes Government is the problem and should be
dismantled. This also Regan's solution.

2. Hate to break it to you, Reagan was a skillful communicator
He convinced the middle class that he was the only one fighting for them, and it worked. Obama is hardly the first democrat to give Reagan credit for his skills as a communicator.

Keep posting random quotes from his book. I still haven't read it and now that you've got me going I'm enjoying what Obama is saying.
