Who was the jelly bean president?
Ronald Reagan started eating jelly beans when he gave up smoking in the early 1960's. On his first day as governor of California, candymaker Henry Rowland gave Reagan a big jar of jelly beans, which Reagan put on the Cabinet Room table. That was the beginning of a long tradition of passing out jelly beans during Cabinet meetings. "We can hardly start a meeting or make a decision without passing around the jar of jelly beans," he told Rowland. Reagan also once said that, "You can tell a lot about a fella's character by whether he picks out all of one color or just grabs a handful." Sometime later he remarked, "Some political figures have endured in history as lions or conquerors or something equally impressive. It's a little frightening to think California history might record us as jelly beans." When Reagan was elected President in 1980, Henry Rowland told reporters, "There will be jelly beans in the White House, that's all I can say." True to form, Reagan kept a crystal jar full of his favorite jelly beans (Jelly Belly's) for Cabinet meetings and encouraged his department chiefs to eat them when they needed energy. Guests at Reagans 1980 inaugural parties consumed 40 million jelly beans --- almost equalling the number of votes he received in the election. Here is an interesting link that discusses Reagan's interest in Jelly beans: associatedcontent.com/article/194607/jelly_beans_a_colorful_history_and.html?cat=74

Why did Ronald Reagan remove the solar panels from the White House installed by Jimmy Carter?
These solar panels were a system for heating water with heat from the sun. They were taken down for repair and maintenance and never put back up. Apparently Reagan did not order them to be put back up, but I am not sure that he was consulted. Such systems were not efficient in 1985 as they are today,

Did Ronald Reagan change the world?
Everybody who ever lives on earth changes the world a little. Reagan served as the President of the US and had a long life, so he probably have more effect on the world than do most people. Very very few people make any lasting changes on the world and I suspect that in 10000 years Reagan will be totally forgotten except by a few students of ancient history.

How did media wrongly effect Nixon's presidency?
As far as I can see, they didn't. Nixon was more corrupt than the media told us--I guess they figured you couldn't handle the truth. If you want a presidency that was wrongly effected by the media, look to Ronald Reagan. Reagan's administration, as judged by the number of people in it who were indicted, was THE most corrupt administration to date with something like 175 indicted members. The media put a halo on Reagan because he was publicly a nice man who made Americans feel good. If the media was doing its job, Reagan would have lasted about a year.
