Can you imagine the reaction from these folks if the Bierut bombing, the Pan Am 103 bombing and the shootdown of KAL 007 had happened on Obama's watch? There's nothing that happened on Carter's or Obama's watch as calamitous as these events which happened on Reagan's watch, and Reagan cut and run after the first event, did nothing after the second and third, and yet his worshipers have nothing to say about them. And then there's 9/11
You are ruining the Reagan circle jerk/ narrative with obvious facts.

Who would you rather have marry a close family member?
1. Reagan
2. Obama
3. Clinton
4. Nixon

From a personal standpoint, Reagan has good intentions. He was not sophisticated and certainly made mistakes, both in policy decisions and personnel. The exact same could be said for Carter. But there is no cult-of-personality for Carter. I think Reagan was one of our better presidents of the 20th Century. But that's subjective, everyone is entitled to their opinion. Most folks aren't ambivalent about Reagan, he was and his legacy is polarizing.

Reagan probably gets a little bump in approval during current times because of his success with combating his inherited recession while Obama has severely struggled with his economic policy in the face of the recession.
People tend to look favorably on the past when there are problems in the present. If Obama wasn't economically incompetent, people would probably judge Reagan a little more on the even keel.
