   While Reagan pandered the the religious right in order to get elected,   
   he never was one of them, he was not religious and rarely went to   
   church, he never bought into their social agenda of hate and   
   intolerance, and did little to advance it. W, on the other hand both   
   pandered to them, and helped advance their agenda. Obama's been able to   
   undo some of the damage but there's still a lot more to do.   
      
   The real Reagan was not a hateful person, he was actually quite   
   tolerant, and was a progressive. Some gays are upset at Reagan because   
   he did little in terms of proposing funding for HIV/AIDS research.
