I worked with him in the early years of HfH and think he was the real McCoy for faith. Those that followed used faith to further their own personal gain. What RR did was to flip us to "hate & fear" over "community". While I agree there was a lot of chest puffing with RR I am not sure it was a good long term strategy for the future of the USA. I think the USA was the only country in the world that did not form with some built in bias of primogeniture.

Our country was built with the "rejects" of 2nd sons and daughters who could not inherit so came to a wild land and built something from just having to survive that world.

Fear is also a great tool for peace. Here is an example:

When a Navy warship is commissioned it then goes on tour to other countries to show off the new ship and to send the message of " this is what you will be dealing with if you cross us". A military show of force promotes peace in that aspect.
JC is honestly a true man of faith this I don't deny however, he was a very weak and poor President. Due to RR the United States image became one of power. Militarily and economically we became the one and only superpower. We saw the wall come down in Germany and the beginning of the end of the Soviet Union under RR regime. The United States had no equal. We should have never backed off of that.
