Not bad for a group that can't seem to get along. Democrats generally can't get along because they have ideas. Former Senator Tom Harkin of Iowa had a brother who was disabled, and he had an idea to do something about it.
Ronald Reagan saw the unfairness in the world and began taxing Social Security because the elderly were just too prosperous. Hungry school children were getting too much free food in school lunches and solved the problem by declaring ketchup a vegetable. Here's my favorite, Reagan went to Congress and told them the Russians had doubled the size of their fleet at Vladivostok and the US must respond by building an aircraft carrier battle group. Now, I wouldn't say Reagan was lying because it was true. The Russian's had one destroyer in Vladivostok and had recently added another. Two, count em two!
