1. Ronald Reagan had little or no effect in defeating communism in the Soviet Union. Communism officially collapsed long after Reagan left office and for reasons (internal, Eastern Europe bloc, technology, etc...) unrelated to the Gipper.



Reagan left office on January 20, 1989. The Berlin Wall fell in November, 1989 and the Soviet Union ceased to exist by the end of 1991. Hardly "long after Reagan left office". Now I'm not a republican and have never voted for one but if the rest of those reasons are as suspect as number one then it's no surprise why this country is so polarized.
