Unemployment OVER 10%

I think the big difference here is that RR understood what it took to create jobs...

A bit of a leap in faith, in my opinion. Reagan (an actor from Hollywood) had the good sense to listen to his advisors and then set policy (with his fingers crossed).

Yep, so that means Obama is really screwed....because if he listens to his advisors, he's got a bunch of libs in his cabinet with their hands in everyone's pockets.

Isn't that how true leaders lead? No one has all the answers, you have to listen to and surround yourself with competent advisors. You can hate the man, but you can't argue with his results (as opposed to our current leader who has demonstrated negative economic results up to this point). Like I said, I hope he turns it around because I can't afford for him not to, but I'm not optomistic.

History the bane of liberalism. RR had 10 times the political and Governmental experience that obummer has. Check the history, see if you can find the words Governor Reagan.

BIG difference you conveniently left out.Yes the actor listened but before that he still campaigned on the principles of economics based on the private sector. But the community organizer has time and again base his Hugo Chavez economic principles based on big government. The comparison numbers you give are meaningless.
