"Once again, I want to say thank you Americs for your wise choice."

People who live in America are Americans, not Americs.

BTW, do you know what percentage of people in the United States voted for you?

"the myth of the Second Term curse is wrong"

Maybe the "curse" is because two of the last three two term presidents were impeached, and the other one should have been.

Correct, Nixon was not impeached, Clinton is the only 20th Century President to have that honor.

Reagan won the Cold War in his second term. The scandals manufactured around him were minor and silly affairs. That second term of his achieved great things for this country and the world.

No he wasn't. He resigned when it became clear that he would be both impeached and convicted.

I don't think the Iran-Contra affair was "minor". There were significant violations of the law involved, regardless of whether you believe that supporting the Contras was right or not. I think paying ransom to terrorists holding hostages was a big mistake, but probably not impeachable. OTOH, nobody managed to find solid evidence that Reagan approved any part of the Iran-Contra business. I personally believe that he did, but that is not sufficient for impeachment.

Regarding the Soviet Union. I believe it was rotten to the core, and would have fallen regardless of what we did. However, I will give Reagan credit for giving it the shove that finally toppled it, even though i believe the next strong gust of wind would have done it.
