The line most remembered; as written by Peter Robinson, and explained in his book, "How Ronald Reagan Changed my Life", is "Mr. Gorbachev, Tear Down This Wall". In reference to the Berlin wall, which was built to separate east Berlin from west Berlin.

It was part of the speech, which was added because of the Mr. Robinson's advanced visit to Berlin and conversations he had with locals there. It was opposed by the top advisers to the president as they thought it too strong a wording for the United Stated president to challenge the Soviet leader. But, there had been protect marches opposing the wall, and Reagan was popular throughout the world. He was an ex-actor and could deliver this message without making a US threat to Mr. Gorbachev. The soviets knew that their actions in building this wall were seen as an act of aggression. And there were continuing protest to remove it. In the end, this line, and the non-threatening way it was delivered allowed the Berlin Wall to be removed and provided a more open dialogue between the United States and the Soviet Union.

the direct impact of his speech was tthe begining of transformation if the soviet union and opening of the soviet union into democratic independent countries. It was also the begining of the end of the cold war. Regan's popularity raised to the highest rate, and alowed him to be reelected.
