Reagan should have taken the bullet

They should all take the bullet. If your people try to kill you then you fucked up somewhere. How many times did Obama dodge a bullet?

Not always true, some people are just crazy. They try and kill people for non-real reasons.

Not a bullet but as I've recently learned as well, quite a few times it seems
