I read a posting from NewsMax.com that they use to promote their CD on Ronald Reagan. I liked some of the points they made about laughter and humor and so I thought I would share the informaiton with you. Do with it as you wish.

Reagan often used humor to inform and to share his insights.

No other President in modern times has that I can remember used humor to capture the attention of the American people like Ronald Reagan did.

During several decades of public service Ronald Reagan used his gift of humor as a tool and a weapon against his adversaries, unlike a lot of politicians who memorize stunt jokes to lighten up and entertain the crowd.

Reagan had true wit and used humor in both public and private occasions. He was a funny man.

Laughter was his way of creating a special warmth, like an electric arc between him and his audience. There’s a lot we can learn from Reagan’s humor.

For those who believe that Ronald Reagan was an icon, NewsMax’s audio program may be good to bring back great memories. For those of you who want to know what Reagan really believed, you’ll find that out also.

Ronald Reagan use Humor to::

to expose big government

to defeat the Evil Empire

to take the Democrats to task

to learn from children

to make light of his deficiencies and weaknesses

to take on the liberal press like Sam Donaldson

to make light of fellow conservatives

to live a happier, smarter life

and much, much more.

We should all be students of how to be a Great Communicator like him and how to use humor to make a point, deflect criticism, defang an enemy, win friends and elections, and influence people worldwide.

I encourage you to learn more about using humor and not be so serious about serious things. I know I can use some tips on how to do this. In case you are interested in getting their CD, here is an order form. Note that they want you to get 4 months of their magazine.
