No teleprompter, no gaffes. He's 71 here. And look at what we have now. Makes you want to cry.
I'm from Canada!! I think VOMIT is more appropriate!!!!!
Of course he's using a teleprompter you idiot.
Whether you agree with his policies or not, the man is absolutely compelling. One of the most charismatic leaders I’ve ever seen.
I wish America had a leader like him again.
Absolutely...I am very fortunate to have had President Reagan as my Commander in Chief, 80-83 Army!!
Just listening to President Ronald Reagan made you feel safe
Every future president should listen to the speeches of President Ronald Reagan one of the great orators of our time.
His concern was for America first and always not just filling spaces up with minorities and women, people who don't know how what they're doing, who have no substance.🇺🇲
@@Fireball9394 &i9
We did. His name was Obama. It's not about corrupt socialism political parties that only wants your money but about someone who never changed who he was before 50 and after 50.
Reagan changed political parties after he turned 50 because of jobs were drying up in the entertainment era for him. His fought for the democratic party until 50, then switched party platforms. He tried to destroy the middle class but never did
Me to gone to soon the Best President
Notice he barely looks at his notes or much less a teleprompter, and he still delivers this speech as smooth as glass and with little effort.
Yes, he is an actor
He was a great communicator and orator
@@BethyKable Yes , he was ! I confess I did not like Ronald Reagan 's policy but I must say he was a great communicator and orator and largerly superior to Donald Trump .
I am an Italian man , 59 years old . I must confess I never liked Mr.Reagan's policy , but recently I found out he was a superb orator. I regret my English is not good enough for understanding the main speeches of the last American Presidents but may be he was the better . Despite Mr Trump is a Republican like Reagan , there is an abyss between them. Reagan is,by far the better. Sorry for my broken English.
@@BethyKable I guess if you've never been exposed to greatness you might imagine so. He was an empty shell. When he was found to have Alzheimer's the running joke was , "How could they tell"?
I miss him. He made me proud to be an American. I felt safer with him in office. Oh Papa Reagan how we need you today !
He was trained in acting to make you feel safe. He was right on some things. Unfortunately he was also on the wrong side of a lot of issues. Especially "trickle down" economics.
He was a slave to Britain and a pedophile.
Sic transit
What an amazing peace of history and brilliant rhetoric. The man who changed history.....for the good.
And leftist idiots in the media called Reagan a dumb former actor. He was actually extremely smart and insightful and even more importantly, he had the ability to boil down complex issues and explain them in a simple way that everyone could process and understand. He was a tremendous communicator.. God Bless you Ronald Wilson Reagan.
Wish we had him now.
Yes, what amazing peas of history.
My all-time favorite president, whom I had the pleasure of proudly casting my first vote for President! 🤗
@@zefdin101 never worry about what ignorant comments leftist make.
I never realised how great this man was, no stamping of feet or waving of arms, just conviction
No yelling for emphasis. No looking into the camera to scold you.
@@annfrost3323
Or sniffing little girls hair.
Absolutely fluent. No teleprompter. Polish, decency, and class. All gone!
See those clear things in front of him? Those are a type of teleprompters. Presidents aren't supposed to veer off the prompter. Every word is carefully crafted. One word out of order could set off a war. So, yes, even Ronnie had a prompter.
@@dannyd1572 They were switched off, according to research I've found. Plus you see him periodically looking down at his notes on the podium.
You don't need a teleprompter when you speak from the heart, you only need one when you're full of shit.
President Reagan was such a great leader and speaker he will never be forgotten. GOD bless you Mr. President 🙏
I love the part about Soviet forces also facing east to keep their people in. 14:45.
I feel sorry for the Trumpers who don't remember what a statesman looks and behaves like. 😪
@@iignorerepliesfrombores4010 true but Trump did make great moves as our president to advance us and our standing in the world. Now let's just hope the democrats don't destroy that like they always do.
@@iignorerepliesfrombores4010 Different people for different times. Not sure if Reagan would be able to deal with Americans who don't want tò be Americans and would prefer totalitarianism if they can be taken care of by mother government.
@@hmanuel7138 I'm glad he didn't live to see what the US has become.
As a Polish-American I will always be grateful for President Reagan helping to free Poland greatest President ever!
Absolutely!
Amen
I bet you don't live in Poland.
Trump would be on the Soviet Unions side. He'd be on the side of a certain little man with a moustache if he was around back then.
@@lauralishes1 that may be one of the most uneducated, moronic things I ever heard. Go read a history book.
I believe President Reagan was "one of the greats", of our time! 🇺🇸
I agree...with the use of scare quotes.
No, he was the Greatest!
YES HE WAS A LEGEND
Yes he was the GREATEST!!!!!❤
He is the greatest President of all times
The greatest orator I have ever heard. Compelling , no other world leader has come close.. Inspirational.
Very true. But he was literally an actor so maybe no surprise.
@@benedicthampus4964 In terms of style and intonation that does explain, in terms of dignity and sense it doesn´t.
@@benedicthampus4964 ⁹on this page and I have not yet heard anything back
He was a great man. Even as a kid (in Britain) I admired him.
No, he was one of the most crooked leaders in modern history.
As a kid in Britain, my parents hadhired Prince Andrew for me to look up to.
Funny thing is that I admired Mrs Thatcher at the same time. I'm in the US. 🇺🇲🇬🇧
@@GodChild63
Mr Churchill was a great man.
Reagan has a special recall memory..the guy was super sharp. He is from Illinois like me but today's Illinois is ransacked- we could use him today.
Probably his speech fluidity is from his acting history
Actors memorize scripts and lengthy monologues
@@judgedredd3568 agreed, they do memorize long scripts and monologues. However those are made up. This is a thing called real life, I can't find anything that he said to refute. Let the truth be known.
@@sur-real3416 I meant no disrespect to our former President
I was just saying his speaking skills were probably helped due to the fact that as an actor he knew how to clearly project his thoughts and views
I loved President Reagan
The best we ever had
Would never say a bad word about him
@@judgedredd3568 sorry to have come off that way. I feel like my comment may have been intended for another.
Reagan would NEVER have cut and run, handing the most sofisticated and expensive weapons built up by Donald Trump to Islamofacist Terrorists.
I wonder why not too many people watched or appreciated this speech ! I was expecting the whole world to have watched & Liked it !!!
The masses if I may say don't like the truth. It's far too compelling therefore, ignored in its entirety. I hope that helps you to understand. Reagan spoke the truth he was for the people, not sure about his acting career, but as president even governor of California how fortunate we are to have had him in our lifetime.
The press was the same then as they are now! Marxist!!!! They hated him as much as Trump! They called him ReGun!!!
It’s amazing how he could speak so eloquently for so long without looking at any notes. We don’t have this kind of leader today.
He's using the teleprompter
Funny. JBiden can't even follow a teleprompter beyond a Three word sentence. But he's has the highest electoral votes in history???
@@monkeywkeys3916 funny to think votes change anything be it electoral or popular. "If voting changed anything, they'd make it illegal" -emma goldman
He was an actor before getting into politics. Memorizing scripts is part of an actor's job.
@@monkeywkeys3916 🤣🤣🤣
Poland was key in the fight for freedom and toppling the Soviet Union, Reagan was prophetic & spot on.
Yet they gave Carter and Obama Nobel Peace Prizes.
I’m British and have such high respect and regard for Poland and it’s people.
Hello from Scotland, personally I never thought much of President Reagan. Not now, I have spent a long time listening to him and what a politician he was. America, how lucky you were..
Cheers 🏴
Without the Scots and the Irish here in the beginning we would have been doomed to a loss to the British. Question government and keep the misfits at bay.
My Scottish friend. The enemy of my enemy is also my friend.
It's 40 years later and everything he said still stands today.
With this great and impressive speech President Reagan clearly revealed his intellectual prowess proving him to be a true State’s man worthy to be a true leader of the free world!!! BRAVO!!!!
You are far too modest to be sure, you say this speech,.. I say listen to pretty much anyone of his speeches, it's hard to acknowledge that any of his speeches were all anything but if nothing short of great.
T Mel. You made that more complicated than necessary.
President Reagan was such an excellent orator. Everyone who has followed has not come close.
President Clinton was also a good speaker.
Just one year later I landed in New York City and started my new life in USA may god rest his soul greatest American president
Nancy was Reagan’s Clemmy. Never realised that beyond his appearance
Ronald Reagan was such a skilled statesman. Don’t judge a book by it’s
cover. As POTUS, in his time, he was daring, and justifiably high revered.
President Reagan was amazing. We need a new Reagan.... we need a leader that can convincingly yet respectfully articulate the cause of freedom and the rejection of government over-reach so very much a problem today.
He was a very good actor. But I agree that times seemed better back then.
@@marksolomonify he was not an actor?
Ron desantis
@@benedicthampus4964 seemed better.. They were a million x better and YOU no the main reason why..
Just make Trump elected again
Every high school civics class around the world should be required to watch this speech. I had the pleasure and thrill of a lifetime to see President Reagan speak when he came to Arizona State University shortly after the assassination attempt . He was magnificent.

I agree with you 💯 my friend
May God bless the spirit & memory of President Reagan, he was and still one of the greatest pillars of the US greatness.
I am very proud to have served on his Presidential Task Force.
Greatest President
What a brilliantly crafted speech.
Rainey. Aye,aye 100% !
Ronald Reagan predicts the future. We need him now, more then ever.
To this day, the greatest president since Lincoln.
Really? what about Frnaklin Roosevelt ?
AGREED, 💯 %
@@mharg6408 definitely not. Mostly good leadership during WWII though.
@@robertortiz-wilson1588 But RR didn't suffer a world economic crisis like Roosevelt, Franklin response and the New Deal was good, too much better than Reagan.
@@mharg6408 Franklin Roosevelt under threat of prison forced Americans to turn in all their gold coins. Then when the govt got all they could they then raised the price of gold. Not to mention putting over 100,000 innocent Americans in concentration camps.
It took courage at that time to speak truth regarding the communist world.
Admirable.
What? No courage whatsoever. The US was at war with the USSR since the midpoint of WW2. I grew up in a Cold War country, constantly in conflict with it.
@@princeandrey You're wrong.
After the 70s it was normal to downplay the communist threat and to put a blanket on the Communists crimes.

Man, he was such a talented orator. I was glad to be a kid in the 80s since it was President Reagan who actually meant his message to be embraced by the youth... he was a very wise statesman....
"Self-delusion in the face of unpleasant facts is folly." (10:00). Wish I could loop that and override all the cable news-porn channels, (as well of most of CZcams).
You were lucky and weren't of working age, stuck in his poverty wage nightmare.
@@keithhyttinen8275 He seemed to see America through rose tinted specs and ignored the poverty and the AIDS epidemic or was just blind
@keith and Optimus. Well my mother of foreign birth raised three teens by herself in the 80’s. My brother and I both worked PT jobs while still in high school. My pops died in 82. We did not have all we wanted but we had what we needed. We all graduated and all went to college without government assistance. Is it hard, yes it is but it is all about choices partners.
Wise statesman whose Alzheimer's diagnosis merely confirmed what had always been evident. He was a Grade B actor, but that was sufficient to hoodwink the unwary, I suppose!
He truly had a sense of history.
And humour. He could punctuate a meaningful speech with a self deprecating joke and suddenly ,he briefly wasn't the leader of the free world.
He became one of us 👍
@@khylerin70 I would say, he in fact was one of us. Him and Nancy both. Then he became leader of the free world, possibly the greatest leader this free country has ever known.
Wit hair like dat….he couldn’t miss…it’s like cake! And that voice of smoky timber!? Fiuugaaaaaatbadit
Brilliant and smooth as silk. 1st class.
God chosen President 😎
Like Donald Trump
@@Schlomothebest EXACTLY.
Shoddy goods acting as "First Class"!
@@princeandrey You sound like you are upset with him thinking of the the people and not just you.
Wow ! What a speech !!! Heart & Mind piercing !!! How else can we appreciate freedom & Democracy unless we fight & lay our lives for it ??? But we could also talk peacefully to keep & maintain it amongst us !! Peace , Love & Freedom are the best things in Life & they should be freely given to each one of us !!! To God be the glory ! ❤️👍🙏
Yes, peace freedoms love and glory to God. Agreed. But then there are haters, unbelievers, people who reject what is decent righteous and good. God sets the standard and we as human fall miserably short of that. This may come off as an extreme example but I hope it's understood as intended. The example being from the perspective of a God loving person. It is not wrong to kill, it is wrong to murder. Righteous justification demands, not always being nice to your neighbor. So what I mean is, not to commit violence on anyone, but rather just to let the truth be known, we can all have differences we can agree to disagree, but there are fundamental truths that should be and sometimes need to be established and not let ignorance and foolish hate with no basis try and run anything.
I cannot imagine any politician today giving an address like this. Today this would be considered a monologue
He Had great Wisdom from God Himself that people misunderstood no matter what Country they were From! His Challenge were Real to the Communist government! He knew Freedom would rain like a Great Storm! ✝️❤🦅🕊
He was Loved because he always gave God His Glory ✝️🇺🇸🕊
God, how badly do we need this man now? This was the personification of a LEADER!! He didn't get it right all the time but no one can deny that his one true love was The United States of America and everything it used to stand for. How disappointed and sad he'd be to see what we've allowed this nation to become. : (
I was a 7 years old English lad when he made this speech, at that time every child I knew wished they lived in America, everyone was amazed and loved what we saw on television of your country.
Now all I see is violence, poverty and the rise of an Orwellian type of socialism........ But too be fair, that's endemic to all the western democracies not just America.
Yeah Trump fucked everything.
He helped us to get here. He signed away more of our rights to protect ourselves from tyrannical g0vt, than any president ij US history!
He signed tons of serious anti-2A legislation into law.
I'm not a Reagan fan but the delivery of that speech with no notes, no teleprompter was outstanding.
You can see the teleprompter that he is using.
there was not better speaker from his time untill now , no notes and clear vision to solve it. Great man
He's using the teleprompter that you can see in the video.
My wife and I stood in line for 3 hours to vote for this man! So missed!
“Self-delusion in the face of unpleasant facts is folly-“ truer words were never spoken or more relevant.

Soft spoken with good ideas to make USA move ahead as a global economicaly strong nation
An absolute masterpiece of a speech. Can you imagine either Biden or Trump being able to speak so eloquently and perceptively?
The difference are the speechwriters of the time. All Presidents' speeches in the modern era are written by professional speechwriters on their staff. If Reagan's writers had written a speech for President Trump, the speech content would have been phrased and couched the same, but the pronunciation and elocution of course would not have been the same. After all, President Reagan was a trained actor prior to his political career and had nearly perfect diction. As for Biden? He keeps introducing himself as the "husband of Joe Biden" and has no idea where he is half the time, stammers, stutters, mispronounces simple words, and can't even read simple notes in front of him, so no, a man suffering from full-blown dementia would never sound like President Reagan.
@@centerice Agreed!
Lol. Certainly not Biden. The man can’t even function with a teleprompter.
@@nouser129 Or even with one: still not able to function. Time to go Joe . . .
@@centerice Well said
They said he was a B actor but I consider him a A-patriot and articulated it wonderfully
There will never be, or at least for a very long time... A Republican leader such as Reagan. Truly in my books the greatest president of all time. A champion of all the ideologies conservatives hold dear, with the speech to move mountains. If only there could be more men like him in the world.
Yet could still reach across the aisle. Unlike today's lackey weak republican house. And kept his goals in the forefront.
People like him don't go into politics anymore. They know better.
Trump came too close. Why he was demonized.
We have been respected by humility and honor of good man and President...
@@iignorerepliesfrombores4010 I believe you're right, they know their capabilities & ideas would be wasted & not appreciated (if even acknowledged). But running the country should not be a children's activity, & requires the kind of attributes of a wise & strong leader, as President Reagan was.
Let us not forget how brilliant this leader was. Such a beautiful speaker and barely looks at his notes instead delivers this speech like poetry. How we ache for the like of you today
The President as I grew up and I always liked him best him and Thatcher seemed to genuinely get on and the American/British friendship seemed at its strongest then
Having a true sense of history Ronald Reagan WAS the course of history.
Excellent way to put it!
How sorely missed is the late President Reagan . So hugely missed , especially today in 2023 by all Brits with working brains , sense and decency .
Be easy on me but I'm a old school
Democrat a Democrat that loves his Country very much. So It goes without saying that I was never a big fan of alot of his policy. But as a strong leader we couldn't have asked for any more than Ronald Reagan. That's all I ask for in a president no matter the political party. A president that makes every decision from the heart and does so With the American people on his mind and Ronald reagan did just that.
Unfortunately these days you hear people from other countries say things like "all Americans want to do is spread democracy around the world and they will do so at any cause" And for that I say you're damn right there is no better fight than one for freedom.
My feeling of true respect for a setting President is his leadership of our country. I am glad Mr President Reagan touched so many lives and embraced humanity...
So you voted for Carter.
There's no such thing as a democrat that loves America
Reagan was a strong focused determined man. He was not weak and frail like Biden Jimmy Carter, Clinton, Lyndon Johnson. Policies don't define Reagan. The American People knew where he stood. Americans had pride in thrir country. What do we have now the HA HA HA HA HA HA Kamala person and old, frail, falling off the bike Biden. Keep your Democrat Party..
I love the part about Soviet forces also facing east to keep their people in. 14:45.
what a great president .... best ever
Interesting to witness the sharp contrast in rhetoric of western leaders then compared to now. Belief in freedom, political, economic and individual. Now it's all about how the state should intervene in all aspects of life so that some alleged all-encompassing danger (covid, climate change) can be dealt with. Moreover, here Reagan says that he offered Soviet Premier, Leonid Brezhnev the chance to directly address the American people provided the Soviets allowed the same opportunity to Reagan. It's now the exact opposite. In the most recent US-RUS summit, Putin took several questions from American & other western journos whereas Biden took questions only from selected American journalists.
CORRECTION, there were only Biden staff stating questions. Didn't even have to take notes.
Only interested in the minority because he thinks they're going to make him win a second term I got news for him he's not going to run and if he does he's not going to win and there goes Kamala with him.
. We need another Ronald Reagan who truly loved the United States of America and love being president.
No wonder I voted for him. What a great speech and one that needs to be repeated today!! If only we had someone today that could rise to this level. America needs that man today more than ever!!!
You didn’t vote for the orange guy hopefully. Today’s Republican Party is not like it was when Reagan was in office.
Just imagine Biden giving that speech. You can’t, can you?
😄😅😅😂😂😂👍👍👍
Read your comment and I literally laughed out loud no joke.
World and USA would be better if Biden and the Democrats would heed to the voice and words of this President .
No he can't even stand up smdh
The Man! People criticize the recession but I think he inherited it
He did inherit one, it took years to fix it and it did get worse before it got better. But it did get better.
He sure did, why we voted him in
Reagan: the slayer of communism.
A great speech by a great president.
The left would find something to complain about and say that he didn't speak enough on Trans or didn't tip his hat to LGBTQ OR DIDN'T APPOINT ENOUGH OLD BLACK WOMEN TO HIS CABINET. PLUS THEY WOULD PROBABLY WALK OUT.
Agree. Trump sucks.
Reagan was such a good speaker. He's hardly referring to notes, and his delivery is fantastic. His speechwriters were also the best!
Truly one of the greatest presidents of the United States of America. One of the great leaders of the world.
it may come as a surprise to you that even the "corruptocrat" party acknowledge that Ronald Reagan was the most important US President of the 20th century, even outranking FDR.

And how would you say that is true? Upon entering the Presidency, he cut the housing budget by more than 25% I'm not sure he was a President for the people. Perhaps from the very rich people, of whom I presume you are one, since you hold him in such high regard.
@@princeandrey you don't know what you are talking about he fixed it
I can't imagine our current or most recent presidents speaking with such eloquence. Progressives lambast Reagan...and not without some good reasons. But he was an able representative of America. And he built respect between the USA and her allies....and he showed respect to them as he does here.
Eloquence has it's place, but actions speak louder than words.
He was a great man , a president who saw action in ww2 and a man loved by the British people and greatly respected, if only his like were here today . He made a great speech once where he saw the growing of the snowflakes and warned us of them and the politically correct, today we live in a world where the right is now wrong and wrong is now right, our identity is at risk together with our traditions and our history all because groups of people find it offensive or racist because of their insecurities.
You sure said that right Andrew.
He never saw action in WWII he could not pass the eye exam however since he was an actor he made over 70 training videos for the army,navy and army air corps. You said it right my friend he was a great man and someone we need today!!
Absolutely.
You're a liar, he never fought in the war. Learn your facts idiots.
He was the BEST.
The great communicator. Amazing!
President Reagan was such an excellent speaker and so gracious and politically astute. He was the first president I voted for as an 18 year old girl. I will never forget him.
Helmut Schmidt was the first I voted for as a 20 year old man. And what do we have today in Germany...............Mr. Scholz
One of the truly great American presidential speeches in history.
I miss President Reagan .....I always suspected he would become a GREAT President.........and so he was.......
His speeches are still relevant today..just listen to him carefully you may learn something
I'm 65yo, American, and never listened to this until today. It blows my mind how this same message needs to be presented today...if we had a leader😡
Unfortunately we now have Brezhnev in Bernie Sanders, Alexandria Cortez and her infamous squad
Millenials Pay Attention.. He speaks the truth.. God help us May 2021...
I wish he were around now, great man!!
Great speech. I wish our leaders would study this today.
Reagan & tacher, the Best of the Best.
President Reagan and Margaret Thatcher were a very good team especially during the Falkland war...
I am happy I voted for him both times. What a great leader he was. I wish he is our president now.
Yes Sir I agree, India and other countries will also agree. Bless you...
What I am both most impressed and concerned about is the fact, that this speech could have been spoken yesterday and it would have been as relevant as it was 41 years ago
_This_ was a president.
What a fantastic speech; very timely values in the modern era…
Reagan was a great president and person . He came to my hometown and gave a speech and I instantly liked him .. what a great speaker and a hell of a man …
I firmly believe that President Reagan is the best president to ever grace this great country and all of her people

I admire President Reagan more and more as my years go by. His speeches show me that he had a grasp, a strong, clear GRASP! Of the challenges then and now, of the stark differences between a representative form of government and totalitarianism - a word on he often used. In today's fleeting flux, will nations retain sovereignty, or be submissive to the one world totalitarianism, written about in Agenda 21, Agenda 2030 and A50/70, and similar documents and in the words of elites, rulers, 'the select,' the gatekeepers, the powerfully wealthy, and the ridiculous radicals of the leftist left, the bereft!

There's a beautiful thing we have in America here it's called freedom, and you have the freedom to live anywhere else and leave this country. And although Trump is a poor excuse for a human being, I do have to admit that God will use imperfect people for his perfect plan. Chew on that one.
@@sur-real3416 did u understand what I said?? I stated that the LEFT hates America. And clearly indicated that I don't subscribe to what they believe. That hatred is , like I said, intellectually disguised( meaning they don't always express it out loud, except when they are rallying with antifa). This is what I said and meant . Where in those words do you find that I don't love or care the for freedom or America ?? Especially now that we lost 13 lives thanks to the moron in the white house we need people who can , at least, understand what they read.
@@mazmonte77 apologies for misunderstanding. The buffoon running this country right now I just don't have words. I am saddened and disheartened.
No teleprompter, no notes. Reagan spoke from his heart.
Awesome :) Thank you so much, mr. Reagan!
Our cousins from across the pond,loved mr. Reagan,great man
Personally im always disillusioned by politicians having to constantly look down to read a pre written speech. The fact regan is able to maintain eye contact throughout his speech is my favorite part
He's using a teleprompter.
What an amazing speech.
We are facing similar threats today and it almost makes me weep to see the types of leaders we have. This is what statesmanship looks like.
An absolute LEGEND !!!
you'd think this speech and content was delivered yesterday how relevant it is right now....
NO POTUS has held a long talk to the British Parliament like him. Right or wrong, the USA was much much respected with RR behind the wheel.
This guy a totally and utter outstanding president it’s a pity he’s not about today helping America a man to salute outstanding
