It must be the ultimate satisfaction for a president who has served two terms, to see his vice president elected after him.
The last time a VP was elected president when he was VP was when Martin Van Buren followed Andrew Jackson in 1836. And it hasn't happened since 1988.
After 8 great years of Ronald Reagan, how can the American people reject his VP?
@Wes McGee Don't worry. Trump will serve a second term.
@@timothylee2772 That would be disastrous, as it has been over the last four years. regardless of conservatism or liberalism, Trump has been nothing but an insult to the american people the entire time he's been in office. You look back at the days of Reagan and Bush senior and get nostalgic for what the republican party once stood for. Gentle leadership and american values, rather than hate, spreading misinformation, and using the highest office for personal gain for you and your friends. it's disgusting.
Kevin Thompson You didn’t give a single reason not to re-elect President Trump, and for the record, lying, bribery, and bias are features of both parties.
These two presidents saved thousands Ethiopian refugees from the desert of Sudan in 1986-1988. I am one of them. God bless their soul.
Is that when Sudan being part of the Arab league was hesitant to help them because they were Jewish. That made me mad they would bow to the Arab league.
And killed more in their wars.. well done wonderful presidents
Ian Lev actually they do. I work with black and we make the same and some of them make more lmao. Fucking athletes make millions and millions of dollars. It’s not our fault your country is still ass backwards.
Thanks for sharing that
painkillerO8 Ethiopians are good people. I’m glad you’re here.
This is actually sad to watch as it shows just how civilized things were in the 80s compared to now. Respectful and dignified transfer of power, polite questions from the media and the days before social media had reared it's ugly head.
These days are gone, unfortunately.
True very true in every era there are challenges ups and downs 80’s were a different time and world but however 80’s also had problems like high inflation interest rates Had to deal with Aids issue crack epidemic crisis and the War on Drugs so forth but it was a time essence and the heydays. During this time there another recession lead in the early 90’s. At least there no social media or even smart phones this was before the internet.
@@the_gmer1955 someone needs to create a time machine this was age of innocence age of revolution innovations and discoveries. What has happened to the world.
For a very long time, Presidents didn't bridle at questions or belittle reporters for asking certain things. Reagan understood and respected the media's role in politics.
they were from the same party so it would be a nice transfer
Reagan's demeanor here is awesome. He seems so genuinely happy for Bush.
I mean he was his vp so
When you go away to college and your little brother takes your room.
Even President Reagan’s voice puts you at ease...
He's pretending not to be senile, which should have invalidated every part of his evil, neoliberal presidency.
@@Solarfactor says the idiot Solarfactor.
Regan was well spoken, yes.
E-Rock 2020 Reagan had a voice every man should have.
President Reagan was a true leader, gentle in some ways and commanding in others. Such a contrast to the politicians of today.
We didn’t know how lucky we were back then to have these folks and a stable country.
We never thought freedom would die here, so we took it for granted. Now, the country that we were born and raised in no loner exists.
@Valentina Joy Defend amen to that
@@Remembering-rq6si yup, trump destroyed america
@@carbonfibercarpet4655 This country was destroyed the moment idiots like you started to vote.
@@donlalo2002 The age argument is nearly as cogent and insightful as the current date argument.
Indeed,
These were America's golden days..
Rest in peace President Reagan & President Bush..
Honestly George HW Bush’s story is amazing to me. He enlisted in WW2 on his 18th birthday, became the youngest aviation officer at the time, during a bombing mission he had to jump out of his plane and out of all the people on that mission he was the sole survivor and the others literally got cannibalized by the Japanese, by some act of God he happened to get picked up by a friendly submarine, survived the rest of the war and went home to marry the love of his life and eventually became President of that country he volunteered to defend when he was still a teenager.
Bries N what’s false?
Bries N because it’s documented and there’s records of him going on that mission and being the only survivor
Thank you!!! And Thank you for posting The Walking Dead Comics
Did you know he was also a top ranking member in the Freemason secret society?
@@briesn7004
You're an asshole.
That's true.
Can't believe both presidents and the first ladies are no more.
Also sad that Papa Bush died 30 yrs after he got elected.
@AsSeenOnTV Last month was the 30th anniversary. It is a long time, but sad nonetheless. Almost like dying on your birthday.
Yep, just commented the same thing. So glad to be able to see this.
Yes it is hard to believe; such is life... I remember that year because it was the year I graduated from UCLA n the year I got married... From dust we came from dust we shall return (that is of course our bodies)... Where we (our souls) go thereafter is whole a different enchilada... what are we going to do with the time that has been given to us....
Everyone dies dude no matter who you are.
We didn't know how good we had it. Both were natural politicians with humility and gravitas.
Yeah so Much humanity that he bombed Iraq civilian infrastructure And kill countless of Iraqi civilians let's not forgot or misunderstand how bad the guys were
Mr Iran-Contra and CIA, humility and gravitas?
@@muziklvr7776Cry harder. CIA = based AF.
Biden is like that too
Love seeing this . I was in high school . This was when times were more normal and simple . Look at the press then vs now . I’m so ashamed of what our country has become and the world . It’s so sad .
Lies again? Gummie Bears
The media was so much friendlier back then.
Yes, now they are either Left-wing or Right-wing. Awful!
almost like calling the media fake and unfair nonstop will make the media slightly more toxic
@@boolnrelaz3883 They were toxic long before that. They never tried to give Donald Tump a chance, they saw him as an outsider and wanted him gone. They spied on his campaign, 3 years of false accusations of collusion with russia, never giving him credit. always focusing on the negatives and creating false narratives. The modern mainstream media is the enemy of the people. They should be neutral, report the bad and the good, not just the bad. The media today has no respect, just look at the press conferences, they act like children. They did it to themselves. One day you will realise Donald Trump is a hero of the people and he deserves som credit. Just look at his achievements.
@@ivr9407 can you stay to one topic , you’re all over the place
@@osamabinladen824 Very curious, is there any media left that is just in the middle?
The press was actually asking real questions
Because there wasn't any controversy
@Lgf04 LGF04 Well reagan didn't scream fake news whenever someone critiqued him.
Billy Buckley there’s a difference between criticism and lying/brainwashing, stop acting stupid
Big Brother He is literally going after the media whenever they point something out about him that’s bad for his image, The media legally isn’t allowed to lie and he even got angry at Fox News.
Billy Buckley
“media legally isn’t allowed to lie” wow so you’re telling me every news stations is breaking law and nothing happens? Hmm interesting.
Him Addressing the lies by the media isn’t him “going after the media” you should check history and look at what that truly means
When America was grand and as Reagan once said "Riding tall in the saddle". Great video, thank you.
So harmony they are,American people were so proud of them.
So happy to see the first ladies,
Mrs Nancy
Mrs Barbara
This is crazy how good this quality is.
For 1988, it's great
Good quality exists since the 1950s
Sony Beta SP did have great quality video
You young people are idiots. This was exactly what television looked like 32 years ago. 1988 wasn't ancient history. You'll see how quick the years pass.
Remembering 1992 you don’t think TV and video quality was different in 1988 than it is in 2020?
RIP Ronald Reagan! Feb 6, 1911 - Jun 5, 2004
RIP George H. W. Bush! Jun 12, 1924 - Nov 30, 2018
Don’t forget Nancy and Barbara.
💯
They live including their wives average age 93.5 years
He died on my bday...
@@yugoslavian6641 Which one?
President Reagan, wished you would have been there another eight years!!!
😭🙏🏻😭🇺🇸
Hello Kelly 👋 how're you doing? Have a blessed day. Hope to hear from you soon.
Bush and his wife were very humble and kind people.
Bab's was a great first lady her agenda was stamping out illiteracy.
Rest in peace. Thank you for serving this Great Nation.
crest in peace
@@mysisteryoursister8202 ?
Hard to believe that both these couples are now deceased. My how times have changed.
Only one left are the Quayel's
Um yeah, people do die after a little while.
Hello Kristy 👋 how're you doing? Have a blessed day. Hope to hear from you soon.
Such class and better times this country was in. RIP President Reagan , President Bush, Nancy and Barbara
I agree. I miss the 80s.
Total class and times when the US was represented by qualified people. Rest in peace, President Reagan, President Bush, Nancy and Barbara
Stu Spencer provided me the privilege of meeting and sitting down with him to discuss politics back in his Irvine office in or around 1990 when I was green, young and a naive brat just graduated from UC Irvine. What a true gentleman to provide me some interesting history and insight. Stu counseled President Reagan for over 40 years or so. I see he is still around in his early 90's. What gem he is.
Proud to have served under both Commander in Chiefs.
RIP to both great American Presidents.
I salute you!
Sincerely
Tsgt. Retired USAF
Ronald, George, Nancy, & Barbara. That's what I call Class
plus they all live at 93 years
Reagan (1911-2004)
Nancy Davis (1921-2016)
G.H.Bush (1924-2018)
Barbara B. (1925-2018)
Yeah, I guess that is classy if you’re an inbred hick.
@@EddieMachetti Oh you mean just like your family right ?
Mike Servello I was obviously talking about yours lmao
I will say Ronald and Nancy because George H W Bush didn't work well with Reagan.
Amazing to realize it's been over 30 years since a president was succeeded by someone of his own party!
very rare!
President Reagan, one of the best the country has ever had!!!!
No way
Dude for 1988 the camera quality is insane. This looks like it was filmed in the 2000s at least
Proper old school....America at its best!
My 2 favorites President forever..! 🤍❤️💙 🇺🇸
Now that’s what I call a smooth transition
Two classy men. I am so honored to be old enough to remember both of them in the White House.
You seriously want to go there? OK, let's just look at Obama. Under his leadership...
We had the "Arab spring" in which God knows how many were killed.
This, in turn, gave us ISIS. A group not exactly known for their humanitarian efforts.
An Ambassador for the United States was killed, despite his numerous requests for military help.
Whereas...
Under President Reagan and Bush...
Dictators from Gernada, the Philippines, Czechoslovakia, and Panama were removed from command.
Iraq got the boot out of Kuwait.
The Berlin Wall fell.
Communism fell
I could go on and on.
Finally, I am a minister. I can assure you on a professional basis, I am not the Devil.
Have a pleasant day!
@@theprayerpagechannel8810 You can't argue with stupid. Just let him rot. He'll hit bottom in a few years and maybe start to climb out of his hole.
I minister on social media.
facebook.com/theprayerpageus
theprayerpage.org
I have been ministering probably as long as you have been alive, son.
As well, if you are having to resort to profanity vs. evidence, you just prove your opinion is weak.
Reagan/Bush is one of the greatest Presidential duo in US history. I wish more people would look up to these two men. They represent honor and integrity.
... Bush a classy man??? Wtf?
Back when America had class, dignity and was truly great.
Yup, too bad Trump ruined that.
@@carbonfibercarpet4655 lmao. You mean all the liberals who burned down cities last year ?
@@Longshore79 Trump lowered the bar for this country. If you can’t see that, you have blinders on.
@@PH-md8xp Biden doesn’t know what country he represents . If you can’t see that well you’re not at fault . Liberalism is a mental disorder
@@PH-md8xp It was really Obama in 2012 who lowered the bar. He broke the Democratic Party half a decade before Trump took office.
Look how they both lovely. I like when 2 leader like each other. It's honest how they work together
Man this is actually good camera quality for a 1988 video.
This footage for 1988 is incredible
I can't get over the quality of this video. The high definition. Makes you feel like you are standing in the room modern day. And wow look how young Dan Quayle was.
I think Quayle was in his late 30s- early 40s right? He’s the same age as Trump right now right?
I always thought Quale's wife had much more on the ball than he did, she should have been in office instead of him...
@@harrylazard805 I’m imagining he was in his late 30s early 40s at best. He was young which critics pointed out when Bush chose him
@@jackjones2361 I remember tv people saying he was chosen because he looked like Robert Redford and women would vote for him. He looked more like Pat Sajack to me, maybe he pulled in those Wheel of Fortune voters....
Quayle was 42. The same age JFK was when he was elected, which is why he mentioned that in that debate with Bentsen, prompting that infamous line. Quayle looked younger than he was too, especially I think because of his haircut. Hair on men was still long, fading from the 70s. Not as crisp as now.
Very interesting! These WH videos take us "behind the scenes," and I love it...
how much i miss ronald reagan. god bless his soul. those were the good times.
Ronald Reagan was such a charismatic man and great President 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍🇺🇸
Sharon Ozvenom . Naaah. The guy was a royal jerk!
Reaganomics sucked tho
John Smith I love trump too
Reagan was the best!!
Sharon Ozvenom
Absolutely but Bush singlehandedly derailed the Reagan Revolution.
back when there was maturity. today is a huge mess in politics
@Kathleen R. James Mattis- I earned my spurs on the battlefield. You earned your spurs in a letter from a doctor.
@Doug Green bitch please 🤣🤣🤣. Trump never served nor does he have our military's best interest in mind. He couldn't carry Mattis' jock strap 🖕🖕
@pie worm Worm pie fuck off
@@heatseeker760 have you you ever served? Your messiah obama never served the country even when he was president, hell obama wasn't even born here!
@@heatseeker760 u speak the truth lol
We are here temporarily. I believe what really matters is how well we lived, the life we impacted and the legacy we left when we depart. Years after their departure from earth, their legacies continue to speak of them. Blessings be upon their souls.
RONALD THE GOAT....president the united state of America....the n.1 in the history
That was a gentler era, no question about it.
I loved both of these men. And I miss the country we once were.
Civility will return as we remember and practice civility with others in this time. We must remember to practice civility so it will catch on and return soon 💕 respect and peace to you and yours
BERNIE 2020
Their policies brought the shit storm we're in now so thank them.
Remembering 1992 ..... oh yeah going back to the 70s when New York was on it’s knees going for broke ... bad times and 80s had its issues as does now .
@@invertedbuddha
Getting rid of NAFTA, for starters.
Ronald Reagan presided over the 80's, the greatest decade of humankind.
We were so blessed to have those two men as our leaders.
GOSH Yes Don,
I enjoyed watching US Tax Dollars to fund illegal Missiles sales to Iran and the profit money funnelled illegally to support the Contras who were killing people in Central America, Gosh those were the good old daze! (Iran Contra)
And exactly one year later, the Berlin Wall was gone.
I love that conversation at the end. No matter what your political view, these were two incredibly impressive men.
What a personality , grace and decency .good speaker .
Two great Presidents!
This Guy having the hardest time of his Life 4:18

Another ignorant republican. He's winding his film.
My commander-in-chief while,I served in the U.S.Army from 1984 to 86 in Germany. Ronald earn my first presidential 🗳 vote, so proud to have both of them protecting our nation🇺🇸🙏🏼...The 80s such a simpler better place in time!!! Forever grateful!!!
I love the 80s vibe ❤
Thank you 🙂
Two great presidents what a great time the 80's were i think about that decade all the time!!!
Bush was actually better
Of course Reaganomics hadnt had 40 years to destroy the middle class.
The peaceful transfer of power. Still amazes me.
Unlike the orange buffoon 😂😂
@@akchanneltv4084 Well that's because Trump was a Russian asset - right - that's what you lefties told the American people for 2 1/2 years - without proof. Liar.
One actor handing the torch to another actor. 💪
The best stylist and elegant President Ronald Reagan ..and humble man also I miss him
That last minute of conversation was priceless... Talking about negative campaigning and Reagan said it goes back to Jefferson
The American style and dignity.
Free expression and openness.
Graceful leaders and freshness of interaction.
I'm not even American and was certainly not born anywhere near the time President Reagan was in office, but boy, I miss him. Back when America was truly a great and classy society! Respect from Bangladesh
They represented an America that I miss now.
One good thing with getting old is that you remember when theese two guys were in office. Hopefully we're getting back to have presidents like this again in the future, even though we're at rock bottom for the moment...
I hope that you are reunited with you buddy George. RIP.
Vaibhav U we will all be reunited once we are with Mother Earth 6 feet under.
Ronald Reagan, my finest US president. I idolize him. His voice, confidence and carriage so enthralling.
Man, what a pleasure to watch. No yelling, no dirty talk. Just decency between 2 presidents!
President Reagan was the first president I remember. He always put me at ease. You felt like a man was in charge. Not constant chaos like we have today in 2020!
Don't forget he became the biggest drugdealer. But than again here's so naive. Only Nancy felt it;....here's something wrong; what about these so cold people i've never met. Dear Nancy.......It never looks like as it seems .
It feel weird watching people this close together
Before the world turned upside down and before The orange guy came into office

How is that weird

A golden era of America. Classy guys.
We love you president Regan, you were such a great leader, i was a young boy we you were the US president
What a fantastic moment in time.

America is still the beacon of hope and freedom in the world.
Commenting from November 2020. I came here to remind myself how it's supposed to go.
The two most powerful men in the world standing together. President Reagan and President Bush. Awesome!
They probably just had a casual conversation like a normal office day
Times was so much better back then.
Yes, we knew basic grammar back then.
Before social media, when people skills had to be developed. Seems like for every step we take forward technologically we take a bigger step back socially and intellectually. A word used to be a person's bond at one time and some could actually be trusted to keep their word, now we sign several dotted lines above fine print for nearly every important and just as many not so important decisions we make.
@@taskcasburn6086 Good point. People will abdicate their personal judgment (which requires the hard work of study before the judgment and the hard work of taking responsibility after the judgment) to an outside process: a herd opinion, a Human Resources Manual, a political view, Facebook and Twitter, etc. Social media makes that easier, because it's easy to find a group to replace your own personal judgment.
@@Kube_Dog And that's what we do now, we like to follow rather than go against the tide, dare to make ripples, and walk in the veracity of our own personal convictions, despite the consequences, because that takes courage. Everybody just wants to be a caricature of some perceived greater personification of humanity, it's why we love to build up heroes and live vicariously through them, rather than live a life of solitude ensconced in our own individualism, because again, that takes courage. Selfie culture has make the superficial, vessels of vain glory, and hero worship has replaced solidarity and personal conviction leading to accountability, and yet once again for the same reason, it takes courage to look hard upon ourselves. Courage is the only virtue that enables all others and when much of society is too afraid to even look in the mirror anymore, for fear of what will be staring back at us, we look to everything else to avoid looking at ourselves. We are just huddled masses, each in our own group identity or mentality, all looking for the promised land and our own ideological messiah figure to lead us there. In my view, this is where we are as a society right now. And the grave danger of this is that as our desperation grows, so does our willingness to compromise our values, beliefs and traditions.
@@taskcasburn6086 Yes, indeed. I'm old school. I will hold any belief that I can demonstrate to be accurate, based on facts and clear logic. Not that I don't make mistakes, but when someone can show me where I'm wrong on fact or my logic, I change my belief accordingly. That approach is mocked today. Or people think I'm just saying that to appear smart, while I'm really just joining a "team" like they do. That kind of cultural shift happens anytime an emotional movement gets started, be it hippies, Nazis, MeToo, or whatever. It seems like it always leads to violent conflict before reason returns. I dunno. Maybe there are exceptions.
Oh the good old days
gone forever now thanks to racist democrats
What a life...those four of important people are all gone now...😭
As joyful as this day was, looking back in time it was a sad day for America, the ending of one of the greatest presidencies we've ever had. I pray that America may once again have it this good again.
Rest assured a Paul Ryan Presidency will bring America back to it's glory by ending the Karen's and her simp men. Healing the nation and bridging the gap between all Americans regardless of race or economics. A Paul Ryan Presidency will offer prosperity to all Americans who want it and instill confidence in the people.
@@slimpickens01 I'm not sure that Paul Ryan is the guy that's going to make America great again. He couldn't even hold his own and call out Biden for 4 years of absurdity in the VP debates. We need someone who believes in free market capitalism and limited government, not someone whose best value proposition is to manage the socialist bureaucracy better than the socialists. Paul Ryan is just not the answer, he is no Ronald Reagan.
I am Indonesian and I was 16 years when they both met. I really love former President Reagan...

Well, I should say that I am really very lucky guy to have an opportunity to live my life under Reagan´s and Bush´s time. Althouth they were both often described as a greatest evil at that time in my country. But we never believed in communist propaganda and now I know how great these two guys were. They both were really outstanding persons and great human beeings. I will never forget of them and I wish America to have some similar guy at White House in the future. Got bless you, Americans!

Nice change from other presidents and there cheating ways.
Two great men and revered leaders.
If there is hell, they are in it.
Such enormous presidential figures of last century .
I loved the chemistry between Reagan and Bush
They are all great governing leaderships for us to cherish and remember. They all treat each other nicely and respectfully each other by appropriate manners and courtesy by their sincerity, honesty and kindness. I still remember that period of time and so nice to see this video again.
"Now remember Georgie...DO NOT RAISE TAXES!!!" "Don't worry Ronnie, I won't..." We could have had SIXTEEN YEARS of a continuous Republican Presidency, but it all got thrown away.
The economy came back a couple months too late for Bush, just in time for Clinton to take credit....
Bush was always going to have a tough time against Clinton in 92. Even if he hadn't raised taxes and the economy was doing well.
Clinton was young and charismatic. Rightly or wrongly, that counts for a lot in the minds of a lot of voters. And by that point there had been a GOP president for 12 years. It's difficult for one party to win the presidency three times in a row, never mind four times.
wow... the press seemed very polite and calm.
I sure do miss the 80's! Great music too!
You damn skippy! Vote red always
