I have alot of love for him, he took care of some soldiers that no else cared about too much because of the mission we were on and it's unpopularity. He didnt forget that we were doing as told and didnt forget that we were watching out for American interests in the process.

Wow! I kinda forgot about him (I'll go kick myself now). I think he would have been an awesome president.

[Spock]

everyone thought he was kook 20 years ago.but every single prediction he made has come to pass. including insanely high gas prices.

i'm proud to say I voted for him.

[protus]

yip he seemed to bear the brunt of the jokes when he ran back then...
i always thought he was the level headed one vs the pick me because i'll get you xyz like most elections seem to revolve around it seems

A case could be made that Ross Perot is the reason we ended up with Bill Clinton as President.
Just sayin'.

Wow, this is when I was a kid......I always thought of him as the guy with the big ears that had a pocket full of money.

Not so much Palin as it was John Mccain. What a TOOL!

His claim to fame is he was a prisoner in Vietnam. Don't get me wrong I respect his service to our country but he is a liberal progressive republican and has sold the American people out many times.

hmmm blame other politicians for failures of other politicians and not the politicians or the voters
interesting concept, seems somehow familiar but just can't pin it down hmmm

Okie, I thunk that was something about the Green apple trotsky and bed clothes and other sordid lenin's or somethin'.
I don't know, I'm from Louisiana.
Plus my brain is fried.
Playing with tube radios ruins yer brains.

I remember voting for him.. The country needed him yet, wasn't smart enough to know it.

This seems to be a pattern!

I remember him talking about NAFTA, and how if it was passed we'd hear a giant sucking sound as all of our jobs went south of the border. He nailed that one too. He had a lot of insight, but he was also a bit paranoid, and as Molly Ivans said, being a little paranoid is like being a little pregnant; it's just going to get worse. I didn't like him as a person, because I worked for one of his competitors at the time and heard that his employees had some of the most byzantine rules I'd ever heard of. For example, his employees weren't allowed to have ANY facial hair. Another thing; if they got a speeding ticket, it showed up on their performance evaluations. Weird. He was a smart guy, though. Total loose cannon. He sold his company, EDS (Electronic Data Systems) to GM. One of the provisions of the sale was that he would get a seat on the Board of Directors at GM. He was such a PITA there that they paid him a BILLION DOLLARS to leave. I thought that was outrageous! I would have gladly left for half that amount! He was plain spoken, though. You gotta give him that. No talking out of both sides of his mouth for him.
