    Default Question to Americans: what is your view on the policies and legacy of Reagan?

    Some time ago I asked my fellow Brits a similar question about Thatcher, now it's time to ask what Americans think of her fellow right-wing comrade in arms.

    I have a mixed but mostly positive view of Reagan. The worst thing he did was grant amnesty to 3 million illegal immigrants. I like how he dealt with the Soviets.

    Some good things, some bad things....

    Economy and punking the USSR = good

    War on drugs and amnesty for illegals = bad

    Reagan's idea behind it, to render Soviet nuclear threats obsolete was a good one, but yeah, ultimately it came to nothing.
