I guess the first President who Inspired the same Optimism as Kennedy was a Republican by the name of Ronald Reagan.

The media hated Reagan too. The media seems to have a general disdain for anybody with an R after their name.

Reagan inspired hope and optimism against Carter's negativity. Reagan told the people that we needed to get the government out of their lives. That the only way to make America strong again was by letting the people lead the way to a great America. Through hard work and perseverance, Reagan knew we could be great. Carter just wanted everyone to accept Communism and not try to change the world.

Neither candidate today can hold a candle to Reagan.
