Ronald Reagan

He started out on the radio announcing the play-by-play during Chicago Cubs baseball games in the 1930s.

From what I have gathered, Ronald Reagan felt that he wanted to be president because he felt his ideas in relation to taxes and the economy could help the country's financial state tremendously.

What three steps did president Reagan take improve the economy?

He wasn't assassinated, although there was an attemptedassassination by John Hinkley, Jr. on March 30, 1981.

Hinkley was obsessed with actress Jodie Foster and saw the film Taxi Driver numerous times. He identified with the film's lead character, Travis Bickle, who attempts to protect a 12-year-old prostitute, played by Foster. Part of the film involves Bickle attempting to assassinate a US Senator who is running for president. This evolved into Hinkley's own thoughts of assassinating a political figure - to become famous and, in his mind, be on the same celebrity level as Foster. He began stalking then-President Jimmy Carter, whose term then ended and Reagan's began, so he wasn't so much targeting the man but rather the office.

Reagan died June 5, 2004 at the age of 93. He had been officially diagnosed with Alzheimer's in 1994, although there was much speculation that he had, in fact, been suffering from it for some years previous to that.

NO.... thetrickle-down- theory does not work it was put in place hoping that if you give the rich a tax break they would then make jobs for the poor....... we all know that to be false, if you give rich tax breaks they buy more Yates and planes with there money... American people are selfish and greedy... you can not leave it up to the rich to help the economy that's stupid. Reaganomics has major flaws in it and its the main reason why our economy is in such bad shape now, sure at the time it seemed like a great idea, but we are sulfuring now.

An "inaugural address" is the speech a president gives when he is inaugurated (or takes the oath of office).

Ronald Reagan was elected in both 1980 and 1984, so he gave two inaugural addresses - the first one when he first took the oath of office in January 2001.

Tripled the National debt...this was a stimulas package

Possibly. Reagan is regarded as the pioneer of the economics which have led to the great economic downfall of modern times. If the world collapses as a result of these crises, it will be easy to trace the blame back to Reagan's "greed is good" policies.

Aside from that, Reagan met every single requirement to be named as the anti-Christ as set forth in Revelation chapters 12 and 13. Revelation Chapter 12 actually calls this figure The Great Red Dragon from which it is easy to get the name Reagan in more ways than one. Reagan was shot and wounded in an assassination attempt and the anti-Christ or Beast of Revelation 13 has to survive a fatal wound. Reagan also bears the mark of the Beast 666 in that all three of his names contained six letters. Further more there will be a dollar coin with Reagan's picture on it without which it will be difficult to buy or sell come 2016. Now dollars still have some value but by then they will be worth about 50 cents or less and dollar coins will become fashionable to use not simply to collect. And finally there is a talking doll in Reagan's image. Revelation chapter 13 also speaks of this doll as the talking image of the beast. All told Reagan meets the requirements of the prophecy more so than any other man in history and the chances of such an advent happening again is almost nil. Not to forget to mention that the one to expose the anti-Christ has to be the second coming of Christ and only one such man took on Reagan in this capacity. Gregory GOrDon broke into Reagan's home in order to expose Reagan as his opposite on July 4th of 1990. And GOrDon is the only man to have thoroughly researched the topic prensenting his findings in several versions of a book one of which is linked to on this page.

Ronald Reagan is known for his crooked smile, people with similar smiles call it the "Ronald Reagan smile" but the Presidential dentist did not like to comment on the Presidents teeth while he was in the office. His records have also never been shown to the public so it is hard to know if he truly had implants or not.

In 1937 Ronald Reagan starred in his first movie, "Love Is on the Air" (1937) as Andy McCaine.

President Ronald Reagan's administration ended in 1989 when George Bush took office.

No he was a movie star, governor, and President of the United States.

President Ronald Reagan nominated William Rehnquist to be elevated from Associate Justice to Chief Justice following the retirement of Chief Justice Warren Burger, earlier in 1986. This occurred nearly a year into Reagan's second term of office.

Chief Justice Rehnquist was considered an ultra-conservative extremist, even by some members of the Republican party.

Rehnquist was determined to reverse the liberal trends and "abdication to politics," he felt had occurred on the Court, but failed to build consensus for his plain. His thinking was so far outside the mainstream, conservative justices sometimes felt compelled to take a more liberal stance, thwarting Rehnquist's goals. Toward the end of his life, Justice Scalia noted Rehnquist was inclined toward advocating conservative outcomes unsupported by legal reasoning.

William Rehnquist lead the Court from September 25, 1986 until his death on September 3, 2005. He was succeeded in office by the incumbent Chief Justice, John Roberts, Jr.

Yes, former President Reagan announced that he had Alzheimer's in 1994, about five years after leaving office. You can see a copy of the letter at http://www.reagan.utexas.edu/archives/reference/alzheimerletter.html. He died about 10 years later on June 5, 2004.

His father gave him the nickname when he was very young because he looked like a little Dutchman to his father. He later was given a Dutch-boy haircut and that made him look more like a Dutch boy to his father.

Reagan ordered the bombing of Tripoli after the CIA determined that Libyan secret forces bombed a night club in West Berlin.

The bombing was the most direct action the U.S. had taken against Libya, but not the first. The U.S. Navy had been engaging Libyan planes and ships in the Mediterranean Sea since 1981 in waters that Libya claimed and the U.S. disputed as international waters.

It is important to note that Gaddhafi, the leader of Libya, was viewed with deep suspicion much in the same way that Saddam Hussein and now Ahmadenajad. All made the same "death to America" saber-rattling speeches.

It may be deduced, if it is not accurate, to say that the 1986 bombing of Tripoli lead to the 1988 bombing of Pan Am flight 103 by Libya.

Ronald Reagan served as the 40th President of the United States from January 20, 1981 until January 20, 1989. Prior to his presidency, he was the 33rd Governor of California from January 2, 1967 until January 6, 1975. He was elected as the 33rd Governor of California and the 40th President of the United States running as the Republican Party candidate.

Yes, President Reagan served two terms in office; he was elected in 1980, and re-elected in 1984. In fact, he did better the second time than he did the first, winning 59% of the votes compared to 51% the first time, and a record 525 of 538 electoral votes.

Reagan defeated President Jimmy Carter in 1980, and Carter's Vice President, Walter Mondale, in 1984.

Nixon was occupied with the Vietnam War, the hot battle of the cold war. His policy there was to B-52 (bomb) Hanoi (North Vietnam's Capital) back to the negotiation tables.

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:
