Try Google Images and type in: "Ronald Reagan" AND "Gorbachev" AND "Berlin Wall". That will probably show you the picture too.

Thanks for reading and offering your suggestions. There is a search engine in the top left of the screen. Look for the "B" for "Blogger". It will search the entire blog. Also, on the left is a series of "labels" which I use as a quick reference to topics about Reagan. That may help too.

I'm really glad to have found your blog. I would, however, like to offer a bit of unsolicited advice. Would you consider adding the search box gadget to your blog....or perhaps a listing of posts. I'd like to be able to browse through what you've written a little more easily...especially as your blog's focus is one of my primary interest areas.

The quote by Ronald Reagan really touched a nerve, regarding real change beginning at the dinner table. I am one of the organizers of the Solon TEA Party; I got involved because my 13 year old son led by his example. He felt, last year that we needed to get politically active, because his future was at stake. Dad and I were too busy, so he called the precinct committee chairman and volunteered at GOP head quarters for 6 months before the election. He rode his bike if he couldn't find a ride, answered phones, delivered brochures, counted stacks and stacks of postcards, did whatever he was asked to do, and even got bit by a dog while campaigning. He met all the local candidates and some of the state and federal (he even met Sen. McCain), decided who he believed in and then worked hard for them to get elected. He was driven to get involved and could not understand why most adults were disengaged from the political process. He was the one who galvanized us, as a family, to stop being part of the silent majority. If a 13 year old can see that the country is going in the wrong direction then any responsible adult should also be able to. The grassroots effort can effect change; it has effected change before and will do so again. Democracy is participatory and if you abdicate your participation by saying that your voice doesn’t count then democracy is crippled. Your rights as an American citizen come with the responsibility to participate in the democratic process. There is no time like the present to make yourself heard, find like-minded people, and get involved. We can effect change at the grassroots city by city; county by county; state by state; to reclaim the reins of government. It is we the people, not we the government. --- "We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give" Sir Winston Churchill --- L.S. Gittner, PhDc
