He also had a message of "things are looking better" - much better than the
gloomy "we must take away all your rights to save your childrens' future"
that we are hearing now.

Did you know that (I'm told this by investment bankers, so it could be
somewhat tainted) it takes about 8 years for political changes (taxes, etc)
to be truly felt in the marketplace.  If that's so, then we are just now
starting to reap the benefits of the Reagan Presidency.  8 years from now
is I guess we'll find out...
