The Soviet government was a Dictatorship. The citizens had very little personal freedom and individual rights. Freedom of speech and freedom of the press was very limited. Religion was discouraged- most of the leaders professed to be atheists and the state turned the old churches into museums. The Soviet army had taken advantage of World War II to move Soviet troops into Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Eastern Germany, Czechoslovakia, Poland and Austria and refused to withdraw after the war ended, setting up oppressive puppet governments kept in power by Soviet military might. Moreover, with the help of German engineers, the Soviets had developed atomic weapons, rockets and missiles. etc. and appeared to pose a serious military threat to the United States and Western Europe.

How did Reagan appeal to the voters who became known as Reagan democrats?
One of the highs of Ronald Reagan's presidency was when he breached party lines to gain Democrats' votes, the so called "Reagan Democrats". He did this in June of 1981, at the democratic nomination convention, by wrestling (as is democratic custom at nomination conventions) with the party forerunner, El Democrato. Reagan double-kicked El Democrato in the face, which technically violated the rules of wrestling, but Democrats voted for Reagan because of this wildly popular, wildly controversial move. The "Double-kick incident", as modern historians call it, remains a point of interest during his presidency, and is said to later have an effect of his decision to roundhouse kick the Berlin wall down on November 9, 1989.
