@izzythepush,
I did not like Margaret Thatcher because she refused to go along with the SA boycott, as did Ronald Reagan. As soon as Reagan came to power, the homeless hit every corner of each state in America. Republicans idealize RR even today and mention his name at every turn. Before he came to power he made a deal with Iran, who at the time was holding 52 Embassy Americans, to continue holding the hostages until after his election so President Jimmy Carter would not get the credit and possibly win the presidential election.
This was an act of treason by Ronald Reagan who was as despicable as they come; however, he was charismatic and quite handsome, unfortunately this was enough for some people; he had two terms, but was ineffectual as a leader. He was shot in one of his lungs during his first term by an assassin, and in his second term, he had colon surgery which was cancerous. He was already a senior citizen when he became president and with his physical health deteriorating, his administration was in effect run by one or two subordinates.
