The guy is dead. Let's not begin speculating which party he would support TODAY, because you're likely wrong.

Reagan would be riding on top of a abrams tank cheering on the pnac neocons waving his california cowboy hat(e) into armageddon.
That man was pure poison to america post-death spin or not if you think Bush is a blabbering idiot go watch raygun sometime his blathering didn't even make sense or were not even based in reality. (and fools reelected him!) -ever wonder where the people came from that elected bush 1 and 2?
Those are the people who let the neocons pull the wool over the medias eyes to cover up rayguns failing grasp on reality.
-the same who elected a half-braindead bmovie western actor to be the most powerful man in the world becasue his crazy ranting were humble and funny.
The same people who ignore fact to blindly support their president cuz it's the "humane" thing to do back when raygun was so gone he thought he was in ww2 etc etc they hold this same expectation for their current prez.
I do hope that the horrible things he did are part of his disease and that he was a good man who knows? He was my President a long time ago. (I do NOT accept w as my prez -he was not elected raygun was and I will never get over that either so p1ss off.) But his legacy and actions are unforgivable for me even all these years past.
Many peoples and peoples cultures have suffered from what he started with selling everything out
that was real.
Many people died.
Many people were very poor.
Many became homeless.
I do respect raygun as a man but not the actual reality of the man himself and how he started the division of our America.

Actually Reagan was the original neoconservative President in many respects, though he chose somewhat subtler means to effect "regime change" (e.g., Iran-Contra). I can't imagine he would have undertaken OIF, the stupidest major military operation in US history IMO, but I think he would have chosed a substantially similar Cabinet, and would be something like 70% satisfied with the Bush administration.
