Bush deserves all the credit
for making Reagan look good. Bush makes anyone look good. At least Reagan could speak coherently even if the points he made were ridiculous.
As for the significance of Reagan, I always think it's overrated compared to that Truman, LBJ or Nixon. For good or ill, his policies were largely continuations of, or reactions to, their policies. Even tax-cutting and the born again stuff was borrowed from Kennedy and Carter respectively.
