2. wasn't even a contest.
One gave us great music, the other gave us poor acting and even poorer Government.

4. i ain't never heard ronald reagan......
....play no blues.

that question was a no-brainer. and from the sound of things, if we had run ray charles up against reagan in 1980 or 1984, we might have won the election in a landslide!

5. The comments on the facebook post (where I found this)
Edited on Wed Feb-09-11 05:13 PM by japple
indicated that Ray Charles was "one of them"--a GOPper.

7. Oh you lucky so and so. I've seen a lot of great concerts in
my life, but, sadly, never Ray Charles.

13. I saw him twice and both were bad concerts
Ray stopped in the middle of several songs to yell at someone in the band. One concert it was the guitar player, another show it was the drummer. Just ruined the concert. He was nasty and mean. I never paid to see him play live again.

Great musician but worst stage presence I've ever seen.
