Story here

I may not have agreed with all of his policies, and I find his reputation overblown, but he was the president and thus IMO deserves a moment of silence.

I figured it would be wise to post it in here just in case.

This morning they said that his health was deteriorating. I said to myself, "It's not going to be long now."

And it wasn't.

His dry voice always reminded me of Leonard Nimoy.
His face too, to some degree. If nothing else, he had a strong charisma.

I saw the thread title on the Forums' front-page summary: "Ronald Reagan dead at..." and rather hoped the completion of the sentence would be "... last" - so I think you can guess how I feel about it. During the '80 election the public school I went to had a minor riot between supporters of Carter and Reagan. I have no idea why, any more than I have any idea why I was in the Carter camp, really. It was all good fun at the time. 8)

Why would a public school in the UK even care about US presidential elections?

That's what public schools are like. Lee is posh.

Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

Actually, they would care more about the presidential election than public schools in the US.
