When Carter left office I had a 17% mortgage.

When Reagan left office I had an 8% mortgage.

I guess we could re-build the Berlin Wall and try to get the Soviet Union back together.

Uh, the Berlin wall didn’t come down under Reagan. It was under Bush.

Looking at the historical mortgage rates:

1979 under Carter: 11.20
1983 under Reagan: 13.24
1987 under Reagan: 10.21
1991 under Bush: 9.25
1995 under Clinton: 7.81
