Do you know Ronald Reagan was an actor? Ty for the tribute to our soldiers ❤
Really? I had no idea! Thanks for sharing.
@@andrereacts7 YW :)
It's impressive that you caught that Andre. You said singer but you were close.
I was just about to post that Reagan was an actor before he got into politics
@@andrereacts7he was an actor in the army, he served one way or another
Ronald Reagan is one of the great American orators, no doubt.
In my opinion, the greatest American orators in the 20th Century were Dr. Martin Luther King,, Jr., President Ronald Reagan, and President John F. Kennedy. If we go back to the 19th Century, I would pick President Abraham Lincoln as America's greatest orator.
No matter how you felt about his politics, it’s hard to argue against his ability to speak. He was a trained speaker, but even then, he knew what to say and not just how to say it.
I am a Vietnam Veteran , Back in the 60's & 70's there were large Protest against the War & when we came Home they took there anger at the War out on us Nam Veterans coming home , They did very very Nasty things, Most Nam Vets myself included have no regrets , We gave the People of South Vietnam more freedoms than they have had in 100 Years , I didn't want to go BUT America has been Protecting the Worlds Freedoms for almost 100 Years & felt i owed it to my Country to go & fight & i have NO REGRETS Even with what the Civilians did to us All we did was change one War for another War only this one was MUCH Worse , it was our own People attacking us, BUT if needed I would Gladly do it all over again
Thank you so very much for your bravery and service. I wish I had the ability to wipe away the atrocities you and the boys you served with experienced, both abroad and unfortunately at home. Instead, please know that you are deservedly appreciated and honored by many. God bless America and it's veterans & active military personnel.
@@thomasrichards6245 Thank you as i said No Regrets & for me it was an Honor as my Father did in WWII before me & my Sons after me have done , If you have Freedom , You have everything BUT without it you have Nothing , So the Price Paid by our Fallen Brothers & Wounded was more than worth the Price because it means our Families who we fought for will remain free , Thank you for your support & Please say a Prayer from our Fallen & Those who still have a lot of bad memories they just can't shake , A Hand Salute from a Tired Old Veteran
Thank you and God bless you!
I am so appalled at the treatment many of you all received. Many of you didn't choose to go to Vietnam. Thank you for your service.
Thank you for your service and everyone’s service for fighting in Vietnam. My 2 uncles fought and thankfully came back home. 🇺🇸
Ronald Reagan was my favorite U.S. president because he was so personable and genuine. He didn’t talk down to anyone, yet the knew he meant what he said and that our country, our military and our families and their rights were of utmost importance.
Thank you for so kindly sharing this today.

President Reagan gave great speeches. ❤❤❤❤❤
Today, in the US, we remember and honor those who served our country and sacrificed their lives in service to our country.
Ronald Reagan started out in radio, then became an actor. He eventually became president of the Screen Actors Guild, then was the Governor of California before becoming President of the USA. Reagan was known as the "Great Communicator". He was President from 1980 to 1988. He did have, as you said, crazy talent with words.
And top notch speech writers
@@cee8mee No doubt, but hiring the right people is a skill in itself. Look at the Grant presidency for an example of hiring the wrong people.
Did you know about the ongoing battle he had with his speech writers about the “Tear down this wall!” Iine in his Berlin speech? His children and others close to him ay that he was the primary writer of his speeches. The writers and others were afraid if he demanded Gorbachev to tear down the wall, it would create a huge incident that might lead to war. The speech went back and forth at least three times with the writers crossing out the line and Reagan putting it back. Some historians now credit that line and Reagan for ending the Cold War.
you seem to ignore he was in WW2 Before being an actor.
@@chrisvibz4753, he began his career as an actor before WW II. He made training films for the military during WW II.
As others have already explained, Vietnam was an "unfashionable" war. Many who served were treated in an extremely shabby manner when they got home. They were booed, jeered, cursed, called "baby killers" and even spit on. Really heartbreaking! How awful it must have made them feel when veterans of other wars were celebrated they were villified. Nowadays our people have learned from that experience & all our vets (including the Vietnam soldiers) are treated with the greatest respect & honor, which of course, is how it should be. Thank Heaven for that! Ronald Regan was was a much loved & respected person & President!
I think the big problem for a lot of folks was that Vietnam was an undeclared proxy war, and it was basically police action, it was sort of the nail in the coffin of the Monroe doctrine.
Thank You, Andre. Thank you for honoring our Fallen on this very sacred day of remembrance. God bless and protect our courageous active military, and our brave Veterans 🇺🇸🦅❤️
Reagan was a man full of heart and love for his country.
Well, at least he acted like it...
@@Grizazzle go back to sleep, fool.
So many including my father fought in Korea, and Vietnam. When my father came home for his mothers funeral the people protesting the war spat on him called him baby killer and threw cans of Pepsi at him. My father after being pelted walked tall and strong. It remains a touching memory of mine. Peace to all.
Thank you for the sentiment and support. It was touching to see you offering your time for our memorial day!
Many people, especially the young were against the Vietnam War. At the time we had a draft so the young men had no choice. Reagan was very popular among Republicans. Thank you for your tribute.🇺🇸
Ronald Reagan was popular among Americans. He was the last Republican to win the states of New York, California and Illinois in the 1984 Presidential Election. In fact, he won 49 out of the 50 states that year with only his opponent's home state of Minnesota going against him.

Thank you Andre for this tribute to our fallen and to all who served. Much respect to you.
My brother and I both went to Eureka College in a small town of Eureka, Illinois. We both went there because Ronald Reagan graduated from there. Reagan was President when we attended and came to the college to handout diplomas to the graduating class which happened to be my brothers class. The security on campus that week was crazy, the day he came there where 2 motorcades that came thru the town in different directions (turned out to be decoys), snipers on rooftops and then 5 helicopters the size of houses come in and land on the practice football fields behind the gymnasium which was named after him....awesome thing to see. President Reagan was shot while I was at school, I'll never forget that day when word spread of his assassination attempt.
As a 62 year old I never thought I would see a President as great as Reagan until Trump.
Trump is not as smooth as Reagan in his speeches, but in a fundamental way he also has a gift for communicating with ordinary people. I can't imagine Reagan saying, as Trump did in the Bronx, "It doesn't matter what the Hell color you are,.we are all Americans" but it was the right message for the audience.
@@katrinaprescott5911 I agree but Trump was able to get a lot more done. Reagan has better stories he was very funny.
@@cryptoran7777 the style is different but the result is the same. A different man for a different time.
@@katrinaprescott5911 the only two presidents I ever voted for. Both have their own ways conveying their message to American citizens. When all is said and done. It's the truth of it all.
God bless both men and on this day remember the sacrifice our service men and women went through and the ones that are still in service to our country.
Never forget
God bless America and for what she stands for.
Amen
Vietnam was a war that had a lot of stigma. It was a drafted war and there were many who tried to avoid it. Sentiment at home was that it was a war we shouldn't be fighting, those who chose to go were looked down on. People believed we should have stayed out of it and when it ended we had nothing to show for it, most consider it a political war. It still has a stigma about it today, the war that should not have been fought.
Regan like many made mistakes, but you can always tell who are the ones who tried to go against those trying to destroy our country. They get shot, like Lincoln, like Kennedy, like Regan (although he survived), and I worry about that in today's world as well.
My husband served in Vietnam. The war lasted so long that the American people turned against it. There were protests against those who were serving at a time when there was a military draft that obligated all males over age 18 to serve.
Plus it was entered disingenuously and then utterly mismanaged.
Correction: The draft was a lottery system. Not all males had to serve, only a small percentage.
@@thewickedchicken82 Yup.
So sad. My husband is a veteran too. We thank your husband for his service 🇺🇲
Reagan was an eloquent speaker, but also sharp and witty with a snarky sense of humor. He could diss you with finesse. 😂
Vietnam was a war by politicians not general. The politicians would tell our men to take a hill one day, and after our men fought and died, the politicians would tell them to give the hill back. And after our men came home anti war protesters were allowed to lineup and spit on them and call them baby killers. It was a horrible time and one the American public swore would never happen again
Thanks Andre for remembering our Memorial Day in the U.S., one of the few reactors I have seen do so.
Reagan refers to the cemeteries in Europe where hundred of thousands of America military are buried.
The two world wars didn't happen in the United States. The main land was not invaded. Japan attacked the islands of Hawaii in the Pacific and America fought the Japanese in the Pacific.
In WW 1, US suffered 127,570 military deaths in Europe.
In WW 2, US suffered 407,300 military deaths. Mainly in France and Italy where it fought Germany.
Peace for the fallen and respect for those who are still alive and thank you all for your service and sacrifice both the soldiers and their families.
President Reagan became president while I was doing basic training in the USAF. He was my commander in chief for my entire 6 years I served. We airmen loved him ❤❤❤
Hello Andre, if you would like to learn more about Ronald Reagan, they are coming out with a movie called "Reagan" starring Dennis Quaid who plays him in the movie. They just released the trailer a few days ago. He was a tough president who survived an assassination attempted and was saved by a secret service agent who jumped in front of him to stop a bullet.
You, good sir, are an amazing man of love and light. Thank you for honoring our U.S. Memorial Day. May you and your family be blessed always with peace, goodness, happiness, love and light. ❤
Bless you Andre.
Thank You Andre.
All gave some, some gave all. God Bless America. 🇺🇸 ❤ God bless the men and women who died in service of our country.
Thank you for your kind words.
All gave some, some gave all, God Bless Our Troops, Never Forget. Thank you for the kind tribute words.
Thank you for doing this and for your kind words André. Reagan was known as the Great Communicator. Started in radio then an actor then Governor of California. He epitomized what a president should be for me growing up as he was elected when I was 5 and left office when I was 13. While he certainly had his detractors, he won by landslides in both of his elections and in fact won 49 of the 50 states for his re-election in 1984. So yes, he was generally quite popular
On the 6th of June (D-Day) you should react to Reagan’s address at Pointe du Hoc in Normandy on the 40th anniversary of D-Day.
All the men in my family served in WWII. When it was our turn, my brother and I served in Viet Nam. We're not great heroes, we're just Americans doing our job. I didn't speak much about this to my daughter, but over the years she has seen people, mostly vets, walk up to me and talk about our military service. She recently said "Daddy, you didn't tell me that you're war hero". I told her "Honey, I fought so you kids wouldn't have to".
Thanks Andre. The citizens of America did not support the Vietnam War. They believed we had no business getting involved, so yes he was correct, the troops had no support of their country.
Ronald Reagan was the last President to win the presidency in what is considered landslides. In 1980, he took all states except Hawaii, Minnesota, West Virginia, Maryland, Georgia, Rhode Island, In 1984, Reagan was re-elected with a massive landslide, Minnesota being the only state that did not go to Reagan. The District of Columbia going to the opponent to Reagan both times. The man had a way with words for sure. When he spoke you really felt like an American. We have not seen that in a long time.
His speech after the Challenger exploded was heartfelt and tear inducing.
President Reagan was one of the best speakers that we’ve had as a president. The Vietnam war just was not popular here in America and so many in the 60s were adamantly against it.
The nation that forgets its defenders will itself be forgotten!
Just want to say thank you! I've been watching a lot of "European react" type videos lately, and you're the only one in my feed that remembered Memorial Day. It means a lot to me! God bless you and your family!
In regard to your question about Vietnam: the short version is that our involvement in the war was controversial, and as a result there were many protests - the war was not unanimously understood as necessary as WW2 may have been; for instance. As such, many of the soldiers returning home were treated absolutely horribly. Veterans had items and food thrown at them, or stepped back onto home soil with very little welcome. They got called awful names and dragged through the mud. On top of that we had politicians playing political games and a subpar support system for those vets. That's why Reagan is referring to the fact that we didn't support them in the same way.
In 1986, we had the space shuttle challenger explode after lift off here in Florida All the crew members died. That night Pres.Reagan went on tv to speak about the tragedy. I'll never forget that speech. You should look it up and even if you dont want to react to it, you should listen to it. It was so moving, i tear up whenever i hear it. No one is perfect, but he was a great president. He certainly loved this country 🇺🇸
Memorial Day was always a big day for us. We went to all of the cemeteries where our family is buried, then went to my Grandmother's for a big cookout. Even though those events were important, Memorial Day was always the most important day in our family because my dad was a survivor of the Battle of Peleilu in the South Pacific during WWII. He was wounded and received the Purple Heart, but thankfully he survived. Many of his Brothers in Arms did not survive. 1600 Americans were killed on the island of Peleliu during that battle. We always made sure each Memorial Day to remember those men and give them our thanks.
Thank you for your respect for our Country. God bless you!
God has Blessed America in the millions of people, Native Americans and people with ancestry from all around the world living together. I really feel that God Has Blessed America and it is up to these millions to use this Blessing by supporting each other.
I miss him. He put up with nothing and the world knew it. Again, I miss him.
I don't get why some people somehow always get steered towards politics even if they say they're not going to. This is politics.
Thank you for this video! I served in the Navy under Reagan from '82 to '88. He was an amazing man who truly loved his country and her people. We all would have gladly fought under his command had it been necessary. It never was, though. Under Reagan we had eight years of peace and prosperity. They called him the great communicator. He didn't just speak the English language, he made love to it. Here are two of what I consider two of his most inspirational addresses. This first one was from his inauguration. It's very inspiring, and is a great definition of what it is to be an American: czcams.com/video/GiuFzpl28io/video.html This second video is his address to the nation after the space shuttle Challenger disaster in 1986. The closing line is one of the most beautiful set of words I've ever heard come from a president. If you have anything in your tear ducts, it's coming out. Reagan was one of our greatest presidents in history. Today we miss him sorely: czcams.com/video/Qa7icmqgsow/video.html
You as a foreigner. Showed more respect than 70% of natural born Americans. Thank you
Stop referring to Democrats as Americans.
Democrats are not Americans.
And Republicans have always respected America more than any foreigner ever could.
@@blake7587 😂🤣
@@blake7587 Come on man, quit acting like a fool. I'm very conservative, but what you said is not true. That is the equivalent of the whole "Trump isn't my president" thing, stop making us look bad.
@@blake7587 With due respect to you, my conscience compels me to respond to your statements. I'm not a Democrat or a Republican. I do lean slightly right but I've been registered as an Independent all the 40 years or so since I reached voting age, and I've always voted across parties for whomever I feel, after much research, is the best candidate. I love and respect my country with all my heart and I want it to be the best that it can be.
Having said that, the worst enemy ALL Americans face today, in my opinion, is division in our country. We all have our own beliefs, and that's great!! That's what the country is built on! But if we can't find some areas of common ground and present a truly united front to the world, we're in a weak position to defend ourselves against the forces that would like to destroy us. And, perhaps even more importantly, if we refuse to do the hard work of seeking out and tenaciously upholding those basic principles of democracy that bind us together rather than tear us apart, our great country is in grave danger of being destroyed from within.
I don't want either of those results, and I know you don't either. It's clear that the future of the country is important to you, as it well should be.
May God bless America!
R.I.P all the American Military service men/women that gave their last full measure of devotion 🤘🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Thank you Andre for the respect you give to America. You are damn good man!👍 you are a great ambassador for you beautiful nation....PORTUGAL🇵🇹
We Were Soldiers is a great movie on Vietnam to somewhat help you understand the hell they went thought and Politicians that failed them because "They knew better" or coming home from a war to only be attacked by their own citizens that was a rough time for a lot of people. Reagan was one of the greatest Leaders we had
I was in high school government class when the assassination attempt was made on Ronald Reagan. We had a t.v. in the class and our teacher quickly turned it on.
Sadly people during the Vietnam war were against the war and didn’t want it. But the biggest disappointment was when the war ended they didn’t get the parades and the welcome home they deserved. They deserved better!
You need to listen to Reagan’s speech, “A Time For Choosing”. The names and nations may have changed, but that speech is just as relevant today as the day Reagan delivered it!
I’ll never forget his speech where he said “tear down that wall” he was great at speeches
Thank you André. This was touching.
Thank you Andre'! Your sentiments are so appreciated! I love this beautiful country called America, the land of the free and the home of the brave! I am so thankful for the men, women and their families who have sacrificed so much so that we can enjoy the freedoms that we have. Thank you for recognizing this sacred holiday..
My father was a navy ambulance driver in Hawaii, WWII. Given acne treatment that was irradiation of his face, neck and back. He died in his forties from a cerebral aneurysm.
I think you did an amazing job with your opening words. Thank you from a Navy veteran
There was huge protests and riots over our involvement in Viet Nam. The returning soldiers were treated abominablly, spat and cursed at.
This always horrified me and made me-so angry at the protesters who treated our soldiers like this. They were drafted and had no choice.
Thank You for sharing this 😊
Thank you, Andre💜
I remember watching Reagan's speeches live and taped for the laye late news.
My heart can never thank every singlean and woman who served our country is a hero.... REAL heros.
And your respect and honesty and stuff is what makes you the shit Andrea!
Thank you Andre!
Andre, you seem genuine in all your videos. Someone like you would be welcomed here in the US by most if that is your destiny.
Vietnam split the country in two. Many Vietnam vets were treated very poorly when they came home. Many were actually spit upon. It wasn't until after the first Gulf War that the country started to realize how badly many Vietnam vet were treated and we worked to remedy that.
You are amazing with words Andre!
When Reagan passed away the lights were turned off in Las Vegas for 5 days ❤. He was a great President
I loved RR he was so old when he became Prez, he was an actor, I served him chicken dinner when I was in high school when he was garner support to run for Prez.. so he could do a great speech!! He lived in the WWII era so he was a class act!
Great Man and Great President
I really appreciate your respect and willingness to learn about a place like the US. Thank you.
I have to say that I have always appreciated President Reagan because he was very articulate and stood by what he said.. He was President for 8 years and always seemed to say something that I agreed with. As others have said, he had originally been an actor, then 2 term governor of California, then President.
The Vietnam war was something that did divide many here and I remember it well because I graduated right in the middle of it.. My cousins (same age as myself) and my neighbor went there. My one cousin recently passed away partially due to health problems he developed from being in an area where "Agent Orange" (a herbicide used to kill vegetation) was sprayed into an area where he was. The product was banned in1971. My other cousin is now displaying symptoms that may have a similar cause. My neighbor was a Marine and died last year for undisclosed reasons.
President Reagan was called the Great Communicator because of his ability to deliver great speeches and style. You should check out his first inaugural speech, I was 10 when we watched it on TV in 1981. I personally can still remember many pieces of that speech to this day, especially when he talked about American Heroes. Another great speech of his was from the anniversary of D-Day in 1984 at the cliffs of Point Dehoc. Great review.
Hi Andre! Thank you for honoring our fallen heroes today.
Could you please react to Ronald Reagan’s Patriotic Speech? Thank you. Love your channels.
Black Sabbath - War Pigs is a protest about the Vietnam war
From a military veteran your respect for USA made me cry I can tell you're a Christian like myself you'll have to deal with me in heaven forever lol thats amazing thought
One of our greatest Presidents ever. He was a Hollywood actor. He knew how to speak to the moment. He was President during the US USSR cold war. His policy's destroyed the evil soviet union. When he was reelected as President in 1984 he won 49 of 50 states (I do not believe that will ever happen again). God Bless America on our special day. God bless our fallen hero's.
Ronald Reagan was underestimated as a political force, because of his background as an actor and because he was perceived as being extremely far right. The 70s as a whole, beginning with the Vietnam War, and ending with the Iran hostage crisis, completely discredited establishment institutions and politicians. The inability of the politics to adjust to the economic realities of stagflation and Carter's inability to project confidence (as well as to end the hostage crisis) created an opening for Reagan in 1980. The economy improved massively by the mid 1980s, and just a couple of months after he left office, the Communist block started to implode and collapse. Reagan was also an inspirational leader and was known as the "Great Communicator". For many in the US Reagan is the "last great President". No one has come close to winning the Presidency by as much as Reagan did in 1984 since that election (58%-40% on the PV and 49 out of 50 States in the EC). Today, there are critics of Reagan's policies when it comes to issues like the Aids pandemic and his approach to the Apartheid regime in South Africa (Reagan's mindset was Cold War centric and South Africa was anti-communist). However, Reagan remains a top ten President on most lists of successful Presidents, sometimes even in the top 5.
Very, very few presidents actually write their own speeches. They are given drafts, make changes, add or subtract topics, etc.. But they all have speech writers.
Ronald Reagan was a good President. My first time voting for President, I voted for Reagan in 1984 when I was 20 years old. When he spoke of the soldiers of Vietnam not having support of their country he was right. America entered the Vietnam war during the time in our country in the late 1960’s when the country was dealing with the new counter culture. There were many people who felt like we didn’t have a reason to go to war. There were many young people who began protesting the war and we had young people who were living their lives as hippies doing drugs and living their lives very differently than any generation before them. So when the Vietnam Vets came home they were met with anger and disgust instead of being thanked for their service. There was a lot more to that, but it’s a generalization of what happened to the Vietnam Vets.
I voted the first time for him in 1980. And in 84.
Thanks for the video.
New subscriber. ❤ Ronald Reagan.
Great speech. He was an actor with good speech writers.
Great speeches from a visionary. It was a great pity but the country was divided on the rightness and wisdom of the Vietnam war. To add to it self-righteous college students looked down on the largely lower class soldiers. One good thing is that the next generation learned to respect the soldiers and separating them from the policies. We seem to need to learn that again.
Ah REAGAN!! ❤❤❤ can’t wait to see the movie coming out ❤❤
“Last full measure of devotion” is Reagan quoting Lincoln’s Gettysburg address. I miss having a president who loves our country 😭
Thank you for sharing this with us. My fellow Americans and I owe such a debt to all the fallen from the Colonials to those sacrificed in the proxy wars.
7:30 Vietnam was a very unpopular war… it was essentially America’s 2nd “proxy” war in the 20th century that was police action without a formal declaration of war from congress. Americans do not like undeclared wars.
Forty years later the words from Ronald Reagan are still moving and inspiring...
Best President this country has had in a long time! GOD BLESS AMERICA!!
I was not a fan of Ronald Reagan at the time, although I always readily admitted that he was exceptional in public moments. The brief speech he made on TV the night of the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster brought me to tears.
That man is why I go a degree in Political science and legal studies. And, why I carry the constitution with me everywhere
Reagan was a great Orator and had some amazing speech writers
Ronald Regan had some very famous Speeches in his career when he was president
His first term as President was from 1980 to 1984. He was relected to a second term from 1984 to 1988.
You should watch his "soldiers pledge" and "we must fight" speeches. They are epic.
Thank you
So many people made their voice heard about why we shouldn't have been in Viet Nam. Demonstrations all over America about this. We were fighting to stop communism and many in America thought we shouldn't have. They were wrong ! So, we lost to communism. Ronald Reagan was so precious and tender-hearted.
Even Democrats thought a lot of him. He was the best !
ronald reagan was in ww2 btw he was a soldier
My husband and I became Republicans because of Ronald Reagan and the caliber of human being he was. It is a true shame that Donald Trump has sullied what it means to be an American. Needless to say after voting Republican for an entire lifetime, we will be voting for Biden in November. We are the children of WWII combat veterans, my husband is a combat veteran, my son in law is a combat veteran, and I am a veteran myself.
Ronald Reagan was called the Great Communicator .
I love your love for our country. If you come to the USA, I hope you will come to Pensacola, Florida. I would love to take you to the National Naval Aviation Museum here and to see the Blue Angels practice. We can make that happen if they are here when you visit!
Ronald Reagan used to be my favorite President. Now it's a toss up between Trump and Reagan. Reagan had some pretty amazing speeches. He was called the Great Communicator.
Reagan was a very popular President in the USand my husband and I happily voted for him. I was in college during the Vietnam War and so angry the way some left wing radicals would spit on soldiers came home from the war. President Lyndon Johnson listened to so many protestors and did not adequately support the soldiers in terms of weapons, strategy. You don’t send young men to War and not support them. I have to say my husband and I traveled to Europe in the 1980,s and so many Europeans didn’t hesitate to criticize Reagan to us. I was angry, but we said nothing! My husband and I were history majors. Reagan was a great President, unlike our current 2 choices in our upcoming election. God bless our soldiers!
Vietnam was an unpopular war here many did not agree with it, when the soldiers came home they were spit on by strangers and hid the fact that they were there and did no speak of there service many for the rest of there life
Ronald Reagan was one of our greatest presidents. He was assertive in his diplomatic demands, while being respectful to the opposing countries’ leaders and representing us well. (e.g., he commanded Mr Gorbachev to tear down this wall.) He was criticized like all our presidents are, but he was respected the world over. 🇺🇸🫡
