        H. Ross Perot was great, except he allowed the deep state to scare the shit out of him. They threatened his daughter and he lost his nerve(rightfully so)

        Perot committed two errors that short circuited his campaign! 1.) he ran as an independent 2.) he selected Stockman as his VP! Trump avoided both errors and Won!

        Never was a Perot fan, but I don't recall him being so antagonistic towards receiving advice from experts in a given field. I also believe that Perot was better read/better informed.

        If you remember he dropped out claiming his family had been threatened with death. I think it was his daughter that was mentioned

        There is a documentary talking to all the Clinton players during that time and they say they purposefully chose tall stools to make Ross Perot look like a little child. I think the Documentary is called "The War Room" It follows Carville and Stephanapolous.

        Perot was spot on with NAFTA; Clinton sold out the American worker by making this deal. This was not rocket science, just common economic sense. Perot was right on many of the issues the first time he ran. Later in life he was saying some head scratchers.

        Bush started the negotians and most of the groundwork was done in his administration. It just didn't get get passed by congress until after he lost the election. Clinton happily signed it into law.

        Everyone should compare the policies and positions (namely NAFTA) and NOT the personalities of the two individuals. Contrary to popular belief, most voters vote for the former, not the latter. imho

        @SharylAttkisson Perot was right about NAFTA. Go back and watch debate on Larry King with Gore. Gore was proclaimed the winner, but Perot was right in the end. Big reason why Trump won in 16

        Perot had a great way of explaining things clearly and simply, including using graphs, etc. Had he not dropped out then gotten back in, he might have been able to win.
