1000% yes.
Reagan was shot only about a year into his 8 years in office. If he was taken out then and Bush Sr stepped up, then the total reign of that awful administration would have been many, many years less. Plus Bush didn't even come close to having the same pull as Reagan. Reagan was charismatic. He was a POS, but he knew how to talk to people and get them to agree with him - he was an actor for Pete's sake, so he had all the "soft skills" to connect with both Republicans and Democrats. Bush Sr was nothing like that. He was just another "generic" politician who couldn't even get reelected.
Our country would be vastly different today if JH Jr was a better shot.
