Storyline

Ronald Reagan was the President of the Screen Actor's Guild during the incredibly violent Hollywood trade union strike in the 1940's. Reagan saw first-hand the brutality, destruction and oppression that defined the communist party as it attempted to overtake the unions to convert them into propaganda mills for the Soviet Union. The strike incited in him a call to action and an unshakeable belief that communism was a "form of insanity" which must be wiped from the earth. From SAG President, to GE Spokesman, Governor of California and finally, to President of the United States, this film chronicles the rise of Ronald Reagan, his unwavering conviction that America was the world's last best hope of man, and shows why he is hero to over a billion people who he helped free from the bonds of Soviet domination.

Incredible depiction of the evil we face in the world today

This film does a tremendous job of displaying the fact that "evil is evil", whenever and wherever it is, you can see it by the fruit that it bears. From the gulags of the Soviet Union, the mass slaughters perpetrated by communist dictators to seize control, or the fanatical frenzy caused by the leaders of Fundamentalist Islam this very hour, evil can be spotted by the results it yields.

And while none of us are perfect, and all of us have done bad things in our lives, there is a whole other level when it comes to the truly evil things that have been perpetrated by people who seek to solve all the world's problems through government control. The Communists did it through forcing strict adherence and allegiance to "the good of the state", and if you didn't comply, "Here, hold this bullet for me... in your head". And the leaders of Fundamentalist Islam today do it through forcing strict adherence to a set of guidelines set forth by their holy book, and if you don't comply (or try to convert to another religion), "Here, hold this bullet for me... in your head".
