oh yeah...sure it was his speech that "ENDED THE COLD WAR"...sure it did...

All it took was a visit to the Soviet Union in 1984 to see that the system was very badly broken and failing rapidly, very, very rapidly! And Reagan's speech had nothing to do with it.


I'm not interesting in debating this subject with you. Reagan ended the Cold War, and the speech was a significant contributor to doing so. Anyone who is remotely aware of the subject knows it.

You're getting your stories confused. It was ted kennedy who conspired with the Soviet Union in 1984 to save the Soviet Union from Reagan.
