ronald reagan was the right president at the right time the united states needed him. for one, jimmy carter was a good man, but he was weak at foreign policy. in iran the shaw of iran was exiled and a new muslim extremist came out of exile from france and took power his name was the ayatollah khomeini. under khomeini the US embassy was over thrown and 52 americans were taken. with a failed rescue 8 american service men were killed. this action pretty much sealed jimmy carters defeat. in a land slide vitory ronald reagan became president. within minutes of being sworn in as president. the hostages in iran were released. making ronald reagan a hero by the nation. this hard line was to follow reagan right through to the arms dealing. and was brought to light by the iran contra hearings, which oliver north under oath said that there was no hostages for arms. and ronald reagan was to say he had no idea about the arms for hostages, and doing so the american public let him finish his days in office with a very questionable foreign policy record. ronald reagan was the right man at the right time, but he kinda over stayed his welcome. and yes he did more good than he did bad. and he served calafornia good and his people better.

do that exist anymore if we had good presidents they were killed before their term finished. and reagan lived despite the efford so i'm gonna say he was all right. i like the way he handled russia with the star war thing.

Reagan was the man. Other hostiles when in hiding when he became president. Notice how fast the Iranian terrorist released the hostages when they found out 6 shooter Reagan was in the White House.

One of the most effective Chief Executives of all time. His ability to get people on his side was legendary, and he chose excellent people to surround himself with.

bad because he has funny hair!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!

ok president, some good and some bad, but the point is he cared about the people.

Nancy was an excellent president she knew how to spend the tax payers money well! lol

The person who will answer that will look on wikipedia for the answer because he's young and stupid... please stay on the line and we will be back shortly. Your call is very important to us...(Holding Music).. ;)

Well If Clinton was Good Reagan was great he had one scandal (1), anyway our standing went up in the world people were really hating the USA after Jimmy Carter so brought America back from the brink.
