I have watched him waaay before his dad died, in fact, I listened to him in the primary season. He is the REAL DEAL and he speaks with no holes barred! Ironically, he DID take after his dad...he speaks--
Reagan did speak out--for whatever it may be--but now his son speaks so elequently for many.

I listened to all the kids speeches and Ron Jr. definitely has the "speaking gene"! He was awesome!

2. if i'm not mistaken (and i might be) |
|
he's technically NOT a jr.
b/c he and his father didn't have identical names... not to nitpick, but you know. :hi:
but i share your adoration for him -- i feel the same. and i'd wondered what he might say tonight during his eulogy.

and I know from my dad's owns death a year ago--it's no acting. Emotions come from out of no where. My dad died a year ago and was 80 years old and a WWII vet and it was so hard to see that flag being laid in my moms arms. That's when I really cracked.

6. yes, but he is often referred to as ron jr |
|
probably because people refer to him and his dad as ron or ronnie and this helps to distinguish which ones the are talking about.

Easy to understand why Bush Jr. had made "absolutely no impression" on him.
