I am pretty clueless as to these obvious characteristics to which you refer. Sounds like you are too.

To everyone else who has responded, Reagan actually proves my point....he had ZERO national security experience when elected...yet his charisma and his oratory (tear down this wall) was very effective...as was the accumulation of silos all over the globe. Arch mentioned California as a redeeming quality on Reagan's resume, but I am sure he was joking, as being the Governor of California has nothing to do with establishing "national security credentials."
The big difference that I see between and Obama when it comes to national defense is that Reagan wouldn't hesitate to kick some ass. Obama thinks we should talk.

I'd prefer a guy who doesn't put up with any crap and McCain is more like that.
