#12 acj – Reagan did not increase the debt. Every budget proposal he submitted was balanced. The Dem Congress added the pork. The economy boomed so much under Reagan, that the deficit shrank as a percebtage of GDP.
As a result, he was so popular, that he had the greatest re-election landslide ever, 49 States! Even the whole Kennedy clan voted for him, except Caroline and some cousin.
That is the answer. Stick to conservative principles; make them work; things will be great; and even the worst Dems will support you. Because it works. It is the only thing that works.
