You weren't the only person who witnessed events unfolding. Fortunately,
there were many others who had a much better vantage point to see certain
things happening. Things you were obviously blind to.

Regardless of your opinion, intent or political leanings, nothing you can
say or do can overcome all of the positive accomplishments and the
enduring legacy of the man.

Of course, even though glowing esteem for the man crosses all political
boundaries, I guess there will always be the fringe minority clamoring for
attention by either fabrication and/or distortion & spin in their attempts
to re-write history as they would prefer it

It was a time of right-wing lunacy, a time of selling out the country to
multinationals, a time of the first feeble-minded president in our lifetime,
the beginning of extreme right wing ideology taking control of the
Republican party, which had until then been a fairly reasonable,
middle-of-the-road party. The US and other countries are still reeping what
was sowed by the Reaganites in the 80's. Above all, it was a time when form
prevailed over substance, and the American population to a large extent fell
for it.

Many Americans still believe the lies about less governement, which, of
course, is a euphamism for less government for the multinationals, but more
government for YOU.
