Since his youth Reagan attacked the government that imposed its will on the people. You are the opposite. You want to impose your will and your ideology on people. If you love your people, do let them think for themselves. I am an elderly man. I have never seen a Democrat or a Republican who imposed his ideology like you. You insisted that Obama Care survive, just because it bears your name, not because it’s good for the people and for the nation. I can tell you, if I am alive or dead, Obama-Care is effecting our freedom and our health and a destroyer of our economy and our people. You are much younger than me, you will see it.

You have three years left as a president. Please think about the legacy you will leave to your wife, your children and all your followers and the nation as a whole. Our people deserve much more than this. Please open your heart and speak the truth as it is to them. Forget any ideology be it socialist or capitalist. Show your love to the people. Don’t take seriously the people who applaud your speech.

President Reagan has always spoken with people from both sides of the aisle. He was friendly with Thomas Phillip "Tip" O'Neill, Jr, the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives. He won his presidency by attracting both parties. He was a unifier, not a divider. He never insulted or mocked any other party. The other party can be your best helper. Reagan was always prepared to negotiate. He never said to anyone that he would NOT negotiate.

He had been Governor before being elected president. He never changed his mind like you, Mr. Obama, who had opposite ideas from what he has now, when he was a congressman. Mr. Obama, don’t flatter yourself with people who do not understand. You are not a unifier, you are a divider. “

Reagan was simple and to the point, not arrogant.
