At his 2013 Inaugural, President Obama was described as the “Democratic Ronald Reagan” by ABC White House correspondent Jonathan Kent.

With his clear vision for freedom around the world, his message of lower taxes and reversing the flow of power to Washington, his optimism and character, and his faith in the goodness of the American people, Reagan defined conservatism for generations and secured his place in history as one of America’s most consequential presidents — a transformational leader both at home and on the world stage.
