Reagan lifeline phones weren't exactly cellphones back in the 80s.

Yeah it was. It was started by Ronald Reagan in the eighties. Why Obama gets credit for it? I don't know.

Easy race-baiting, I think. The "obamaphone" video that ran everywhere wasn't exactly flattering to the woman involved.

dont expect a response. from my interactions with red hats, the tend to cry about socialism but when their kid is a shit fuck and gets put in a behaviour hospital they want everybody else to pay for it. (my back yard neighbors actually did this, they still have a vote trump sign in their yard almost 3 years later)
