I admit it, I'm an old guy. I was in High School when Ronald Reagan joked about Russian missiles being on their way on live radio. I remember watching the Berlin Wall come down on live television, and I remember watching CNN correspondents interviewing Croats through the barbed wire of Serbian Concentration Camps.
I remember when Russia was the bad guy, the Totalitarian State with the secret police and the fear and the food shortages. The squalor and hopelessness of many Russians was paraded across television screens almost daily back in the 1980's, serving as a reminder of the supremacy of Democracy.
