if you play it, listen all the way through. the last couple minutes is a summary of what i take your viewpoint to be based on. but getting to those last two minutes is kinda fun. enjoy.
Brings back memories. Scott came out with that when I was in college, and I was grooven right along with him - at the time. Times change. There is a difference between a guy like Beck and a guy like Reagan. I think the difference is Reagan actually believed his lines. Reagan was actually able to persuade people to act in ways different from their normal predisposition. Reagan focused on the positive. Reagan was a leader.
