Reagan the patron saint of rightists?

THIS GUY says Ronald Reagan was not the model conservative he’s made out to have been by today’s crop of Republican presidential candidates.
POSTSCRIPT: Which of this year’s presidential candidates said this the other day?: “… I think Ronald Reagan changed the trajectory of America in a way that Richard Nixon did not and in a way that Bill Clinton did not. He put us on a fundamentally different path because the country was ready for it. I think they felt like with all the excesses of the 1960s and 1970s and government had grown and grown but there wasn’t much sense of accountability in terms of how it was operating. …”
Give up? It was Barack Obama.
