How does Reagan look good? Doesn't W have much of the same cast? Come to think of it, both administrations have that vacuous figurehead thing going on. If Reagan had gotten his start in 2000, would Things be any different?

I don't mean to dismiss the effect of individuals in administrations, but Nixon was also facing more popular revolt than anybody since.
