Merle haggard and Ronald Reagan two of the Best

@pennygooch6598 Год назад

I miss Merle and Ronald Reagan they will always be legends!!!!!

@pointingdog7235 6 месяцев назад

It was President Regan who gave Merle Haggard for his pardon, when he was Governor of California.

@DavidDorsey-ic2bi 3 месяца назад

You bet that they will always be ledgens in my opinion. I saw the President twice and I don't remember how many times I stopped and saw Meryle. I drove a semi for 17 years and I stopped when I wanted to. I know that I saw Charlie Pride 8 times so Meryle I say that I saw would be at least 12 times. Loved every bit of it and I wish I could do it again. R.I.P. to you all

@johnplightning Год назад

His live renditions of 'Pennies' performed by his late 70's early 80's expanded versions of The Strangers were spectacular as those groupings were a collection of players that made his band then, the best country/swing band I got to see, but I'm a tad too young to have seen Mr. Wills & his Playboys back in 'the day'.

@trenthogan4212 2 года назад

Ronald Reagan was probably the worst president ever. He lowered taxes so much on the elites that it set off a chain reaction that created the great disparity we see today in the US. It was the first major step towards the plutocracy it is today. After Reagan women had to go to work, before one salary could do the job. I like how Merle sang a peaceful environmental song right after Reagan's speech. Merle, was the best for sure.

Merle Haggard truely an American icon I think about what he had to rise above to we’re he had made it to am so glad I’ve had the opportunity to be bought up on country music deffinetly a working man’s music just think of all we would’ve missed if he had never got to play and write his music for us all to hear a legend in his time.

Merle was doing just fine before the pardon. He was already a star. The Pardon was more about getting his rights back, and the fact that he had redeemed himself. The pardon was important to Merle personally, but professionally...very little impact. But it was nice for Gov Reagan to do. It was the right thing.

@@wynettegreer3812 I am not going to have a on going disagreement with you. I don't know how old you are, and you are entitled to your opinion. But Trump is far from the best president what has he done besides cause hatred and division? Respect, maybe if showed the media respect he would get respect in return. He brings on his own problems. He has no respect for anyone, he has made our allies turn on us, in the history of the boy scout jamboree many presidents have spoken to the scouts, his was the only one that the scout officers had to apologize for what he said to the scouts.Reagan knew how to treat the media he showed them respect even when they were hard on him, and they were very hard on him. same with Clinton and Bush one and two, and Obama. I did not care for Bush # 2 or Obama but both were better than Trump. And by the way I am 66 years old and I do not vote straight ticket. And I'll leave it there. Good Night.
