Ronald Reagan - "A Time for Choosing" 

"If we lose freedom here there's no place to escape to." Goddamn right.

Wow - I was too young and radical to appreciate him then. We need him today more than ever.

This speech is very relevant today. Love his speeches I can listen to them forever

This should be required watching in every school.

"Theres nowhere to escape to, this is the last stand on earth"

For those who gave this speech a thumbs down. Get the hell out and move to Costa Rica. Happy trails.

We need to listen and do what Mr Reagan said! A wonderful President!

Damn, Reagan was something special.

Amen brother. In 10,000 years, his courage and leadership will still be admired.

He was as brilliant as Thomas Jefferson and as eloquent as Abraham Lincoln. I missed being born during his Presidency by 4 months. He was a true Patriot.

This has aged terrifyingly well

He Truly was a Great President!!! And a Great Man!!!

Sadly everything he said was true all along and it's happening right now I know a lot of people hate him for his bad and sometimes controversial decisions but when it comes to predicting the future of the country he successfully did people still don't realize that

ABSOLUTE Truth.

It is time for another Reagan. We need another true fiscal conservative that believes in individual freedom as well as individual responsibility. Someone who truly loves this country and wants to see freedom for all. Never sacrifice freedom for security. I would rather die on my feet as live on my knees. Reagan came along at the perfect time (repairing most of the damage Jimmy Carter had created). It is time for another Reagan.

God bless the Gipper and Goldwater too.

FUTURE PROVES PAST

I choose Republican in 1979 when Ronald Reagan ran for President of the United States of America. 😎👍🇺🇸 The Gipper, We miss you!🇺🇸

True then and still true today. We need a leader with his vision and fortitude now. This is a pivotal time in the history of this nation and the time is ripe for a transcendent leader like Ronald Reagan to lead us.

"This idea that government is beholden to the people, that it has no other source of power except the sovereign people, is still the newest and the most unique idea in all the long history of man's relation to man. This is the issue of this election, whether we believe in our capacity for self-government or whether we abandon the American Revolution and confess that a little intellectual elite in a far distant Capitol can plan our lives for us better than we can plan them ourselves." ~Ronald Reagan

Damn, Regan was describing what is going on now

America needs another one like him. Or it will perish

I'm not an American, however, I am very pleased to say, that I lived during the presidency of Ronald Reagan. Ronald Reagan loved his country deep red, white and blue. For al the best reasons he is missed in this world today!

A brilliant man, with a message that resonates even today.

Yes!

The only piece you’re guaranteed is the one that you rest in

Sadly, most people will not take any of this seriously until the damage is already done.

Thank you Mr Reagan you were a real revolutionary you changed alot

Now more true than ever

It’s amazing that this was 60 years ago….

The only great president of my generation.

Best President in our history

RR is a leader

A true president with guts,& a great actor 2 by the way.

Profound and Relevant for present dangers! Don't change freedom for security. WE lose! 🏴‍☠️ 🇺🇸

Back when you expected the speaker to have supplied their own words...

This is dedicated to someone I know and the show will not go on until your straight up and all is settled. I'm sure you understand.

The Best President This Great Country Ever Had👍 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

The great Reagan

The Great Communicator!!!

We are this moment now

Exactly🎉🎉🎉

The American conservative movement's Gettysburg Address.

The greatest American president ever! 👍

That Freedom is Already Lost, for decades... Now is just a hint of Freedom, easily brokeable, like Chinada has today. RIP 🇨🇦

I support and will obey Ronald Reagan forever!

Win one for the Gipper

🔥

Wow

Have you read America's history.Traditionally Americans fought and died for freedom even it means fighting oversea.June 6,1944. Americans landed on Normandy in northern France along with our British & Canadian allies started the liberation of Europe.Tell me if you were living in 1944 would you say we must talk to Hitler to stop this world war. Remember freedom isn't free.That's why you along with those anti-war people can say what ever you want.Americans died so we have our freedom.

Miss him

The average Schmuck today wouldn’t understand a word of this.

And that's why I'm asking bonzo to make a sequel

To the American patriotic people Says IAM who Iam Amen and amen

hello from 2022

🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸

We have no where to go as Americans

🙏👍❤️🇺🇸

Anyone know if there’s a Russian translation of this speech?

"You and I know and do not believe that life is so dear and peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery. If nothing in life is worth dying for, when did this begin - just in the face of this enemy? Or should Moses have told the children of Israel to live in slavery under the pharaohs? Should Christ have refused the cross? Should the patriots at Concord Bridge have thrown down their guns and refused to fire the shot heard 'round the world? The martyrs of history were not fools, and our honored dead who gave their lives to stop the advance of the Nazis didn't die in vain"

I'm 49, thanks for asking. This great nation has been fighting against islamo extremists ever since our founding, and we always will. We will live in peace with those who choose peace, we will kill those who desire to kill us. Step up and be counted., which are you? "From the halls of montazuma to the shores of tripoli...."

Look again. I mean real closely.

Wow. And still we tax at every chance and spend more than we have. Reagan knew this would be a problem.

Reagen bulldozed the communes on the 31 acre Morning Star ranch, then bought himself a 668 acre vacation ranch - that he rarely visited. Hmmm great use of indigenous people’s land. He also called an astronaut a “celluloid hero” …. Great leader and human being.

Disapointed that the video did not show the whole speech.

Best Governor of California, at least he never sold California out like Arnold did, buy a new 2021 Camaro not in Cal. Don't ya love it.

It is the quaintest of conceits that libertarianism feels Americans aren't selfish enough.

What ever happened to America.

2:35 to 2:45 ouch

2:04

He was a Democrat until he saw what they party was trying to do Likewise Thomas Sowell was a socialist. Education not indoctrination is important But it is wisdom from God that lights the way

My letter catches 1 to my each if I would tell you my plan of Life Will work or my deliverance to my maker before you I take. Piece tonall offering has to be said to study this and get what i have of knowing I can't fin here but will for you I sold my roll down to the power to never come up before me % words of studying power points

what happened?

OMG

Seems those bank failures were not so bad, huh? Stuff happens, keep the govt SMALLER, less bad stuff happens... heehee

If you're here because of the Marines being killed and China advancing ...join me on calling on the Great War Chief of Peace. May his words guide our spirit.

Trump 2020 🙏

Better men than you and I believed in a supreme being, and credited that God for their freedoms. Men there in your land, and here in mine. As we have turned our back on that God, so have the blessing been removed. Using your logic, I see my point. When this country was not ashamed of God, it prospered as never before seen. As it slips to the mindest you portray, it is going down daily. So you may be right, we may be doomed shortly, not because there is no God, but becasue we refuse to honor Him.

Thank God not all Irish are full of hate for God as you. "IRISHMEN AND IRISHWOMEN: In the name of God and of the dead generations from which she receives her old tradition of nationhood, Ireland, through us, summons her children to her flag and strikes for her freedom. We place the cause of the Irish Republic under the protection of the Most High God. Whose blessing we invoke upon our arms, and we pray that no one who serves that cause will dishonour it by cowardice, in humanity, or rapine"

Spoiler 2:24 -- we lost "that war". Also Goldwater didn't win. Somehow, the dire predictions did not come true. It has always astonished me that this point has not been the main lesson learned from this speech.

We do his name is trump

RR never had an original idea in his life. He was a professional mouthpiece for the rich and powerful.

Ugh I have to watch this for school.

How am I the terrorist. I dont kill people, I dont invade small defenseless countries. When I look in the mirror I see a handsome man who is on the side of peace!

proceeds to declare war und drugs xD

well maybe a few wrinkles, but I am still on the side of peace and fairness and not on the side of brutal aggression and murder ie America

Deficit has a photo of Reagan next to it? Have you seen the deficit increase that our current president has created?

Was this speech before or after he permanently neutered the 2nd amendment?

Stand with Ukraine!

Trump 2020

you show your ignorance with comments like that. It is no worse a religion than Judaism or Christianity.

Its time to get right with Jesus. nobody is automatically gonna go to heaven at the end of it, we all have lied or stolen or had sex before marriage and the punishment is hell. Jesus died so you can get a clean slate and forgiveness of future sins if you repent of them if you commit them, so you receive the gift of forgiveness by following him. When you start you have to stop sinning, and follow his word and obey it. That’s following the Lord Jesus. Read the Bible

The mysterious carbon virtually open because waitress selectively bruise astride a elite pull. jumpy, uppity aquarius

I never stopped seeing this man as an average actor who destroyed the environment. Handsome goes a long way for people who think hyped nationalism is solid policy

His acting career was over so he did what theyvl all do Find God and wave the flag

He claimed at the very beginning to be a democrat most of his life, but he fails to acknowledge that the "southern strategy" employed in the early 60s was designed to created confusion between the terms politically liberal & economically liberal -completely different concepts. The old 'southern democratic' was the racist, slaveholding families of the south who needed big government for infrastructure like roads and electricity organized and paid for by government. Once those things were provided by government in their favor, they switched to the republican party and advocated for small government, even lower taxes for the rich, the dismantling of unions, toxic individualism, and a maintaining of institutional racism. Let's not forget to mention how much wasteful spending he invested in the star wars program that put our military spending at egregious levels compared to the rest of the world, and how much he interfered in the governments of South and Latin America, and the Middle East, for which war, economic & political instability -the consequences of which are still felt today as refugees continue to flee where the US has intervened the most. American history is way more complicated than one speech or a series of conspiracy theories. Ronald Reagan, an actor, helped the patriarchy do a bait and switch for the rich and left 80% of America living paycheck to paycheck while they blame the poor.

Which Christian wackos do you condemn? Do you condemn Bush for attacking Iraq when Iraq had nothing to do with 9-11?

Crummy Actor

Seems those bank failures were not so bad, huh? Stuff happens, keep the govt SMALLER, less bad stuff happens... heehee
