In 1986, my Aunt worked from home with EDS while battling cancer almost all the way until the end. During that time there, my mom had answered the phone and handed the phone off to my Aunt not knowing who it was. It was Ross Perot checking on her and how she was doing with things and he told her all her hospital/chemo bills would be taken care of by him. As of a week ago, she passed 35 years ago. Ross Perot 100% Class Act!
This is a amazing story.
Thanks for sharing!
A true American he exposed the two party corrupt system for what it is. A man of dignity and ahead of his time. RIP Mr. Perot you would have been a great president you will be missed.
Man, I would do anything to have him be president. What an incredible guy.
"The crazy aunt in the basement." Perot was capable of corny homespun witticisms yet he had his finger on what was wrong with the U.S.
We need him now in 21.
And more in 24
The true American spirit was in this man, how the people did not see it I will never know...
Loved Perot
A great man ! talked sense , and look at the country today and think about what he said back then , he knew what would happen if things were just left alone
This guy was great
Remember when Al Gore conceded weeks before the supreme court found him the winner? Ross Perot would never have quit. Our country would be better than it is today that's for sure
Toilet paper and paper towels break down in multiple different companies but that inner tube I think not for sure Ross Perot holds Pat# rights on all I repeat I think 🤔 so no one quote me on that!!
Ross Perot's only mistake was believing in our country so much that he believed telling the truth would get him elected...RIP a true American Patriot
wasn’t a mistake to believe in something you love.
Actually, his only mistake was dropping out of the presidential race a few months before the election and then re-entering it about a month before the election. He was leading in the polls at the time, and I had been convinced enough that I was going to support him. But I, and I'm sure most others, just couldn't vote for him once he dropped out... even though he re-entered. The job of POTUS is too important to vote for someone who drops out of the race before the race is over. Too bad, really....he would have been much better than Clinton or Bush. Still got 20% of the vote.
@@UKSportsFanMost likely the Bush Crime Family and Co had something to do with it. Perot did say later on that he received numerous threats during his 1992 bid.
You inspired many third parties and independents, Mr. Perot.
This isn't the end.
I was in the 10th grade when I learned of Ross Perot. I will miss this giant.
A modern day Benjamin Franklin: a self-made man whose life blessed the nation and was then thrust into politics by his love for his country. Few have as much right to claim the title "American" as Ross Perot.
I voted for him.
My parents did too. We had one of his campaign signs in our yard. Someone stole it on election night.
I adored Ross Perot I wrote in his name in 92 & 96! One of the truest Patriots in history! My heart breaks! May God Bless Your Soul Ross you will always be remembered & loved! RIP 🙏 ❤
I voted for him in '92 and '96. I still think he would have done an excellent job as president.
He would be shocked at the sorry condition America is in now!
anybody with an ounce of common sense would be. In the words of the great Ross Perot. Its sad. Im telling you its sad.
@@eadams1057 Met him several times. I used to eat often at a restaurant he also happen to frequent not far from SMU. he was the friendliest Billionaire I ever met. Even when he was running for president and had several bodyguards around him, he'd always come over to shake hands and he always stopped to talk and make you feel special. I definitely miss him also, just as you do.
That is a real man.
Loved Ross Perot. People laughed at him but he was totally RIGHT!!! He was quantitatively RIGHT. Wish he had not dropped out of the Presidential race. My hero.
America did not understand then, and now they hide their heads in shame and have to vote for whacko's now, not patriots
@GN There were also death threats from republican and democrat voters sent to him.
It is. Democrat and Republican voters point to how evil the other side is, but in the end, they deserve each other.
Mr. Perot was laughed at, scoffed and ridiculed, but he was RIGHT! I heard and saw that giant sucking sound as I later drove down Van Dyke, Groesbeck and Gratiot in Detroit, MI. In the 60's, 70's and 80's those streets were booming with tool and dye shops, always busy and humming. I had neighbors who were tool makers, who had great jobs. Then one day after we signed NAFTA, they were all gone! All that work left for Mexico and China and we lost our country. We all knew what the elites had done to us and we all knew we would never be the same. My family voted for Mr. Perot because we looked behind the curtain. I was working contract at GM at the time and GM hated him when GM bought EDS. He made his people work, have accountability and have dress codes while GM thrived on nepotism, kissing up to the boss and hiding to get out of work.
I heard you Ross and even as a young man I voted for you. People get the government they deserve. And the American people did not deserve you. They deserve the garbage they have had for the last 30 years. You should have been president. RIP
100% correct! unfortunately
100% agree
😂😂
I wonder what the country would be like today had he been elected in 1992?
A lot more prosperous.
Our kids would have jobs.
@@marlenecampbell5439 He wouldn’t have been able to do it, unfortunately he was a man of the people, not a man of red or blue
I have no doubt Ross Perot would have been an excellent president had he won the 1992 election. I cried when he died
I remember watching him when I was in middle school. He was intelligent and funny. I wish I could've voted for him.
Ross Perot was a true American Patriot.
I wish I had the chance to work for this fine and brilliant man
Would have been work with not for. Dude literally didn't bullshit us like the rest yet the country went for status quo
I never cast such a proud vote in my life.
RIP ross Perot .. watch them his debates and talks Live back in 92 n 96 👍🏼👍🏼😆🙏🏼”ca I finish ?!!” … “can I finish Larry !!?😂😂
Trump is concerned about the same things H Ross Perot was. I voted Perot twice and I will vote for Trump thrice!!
He would made a Great president,given the opportunity, Sad he's gone and won't be,,.
He must not be a member of the club, otherwise he should have been President and this country would have taken a big step toward common sense
He was the greatest President that never was.
Best Prez There Never Was 🇺🇸🦅
I remember everything I ever seen of Ross Perot in the 90s as a kid was the media making fun of him.
Nickalodeon, NBC and all these other comedy skits and movies.
Not a career politician. An American businessman and icon. We need more like Ross in office.
The Greatest President who never was
Thx Ross a Great American 👍🇺🇲
If only he had been president.
Perot was RIGHT!
'Ah'm ALL EARS'
At 1:17, you can see Algore's ear piece
I read his book, also voted for him, we would be better off now had he got it, I really like Perot.
American AF
Have a nice trip.🕴🏼God bless America
I believe he made the biggest impact in ‘92
Ross the Boss would have erased the national debt in 4 years , blocked nafta , rebuilt the country, and made all of America proud ! He was the OG .
Such a G
His shot at presidency definitely opened the door for the greatest non-establishment candidate who ever became president in 16'
An extraordinary businessman and trailblazer in his political approach to D.C....RIP Ross Perot
And now you have a cretin 27 yrs later in the WH who lost $7B of investors money. As of this writing this POTUS has a former AG nominee and labor secretary just resign under fire and disgrace for being connected to a dark billionaire ( Jeffrey Epstein arrested on sex trafficking charges )......what a absolute joke!!! THIS FECAL MATTER SHOW IS A COMBINATION OF A LATE BURT REYNOLDS 1970'S MOVIE AND THE SOPRANOS ( SINCE TRUMP'S FROM NYC ) BYE IDIOTS.......
Donald Trump couldn't hold Ross Perot's jock strap, on his best day! Do not even compare!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@schumi9xwdc Thank you for this lol was about to say the same damn thing.
Its two wings to the same bird. Let go of the fear we get fed everyday and realize we are being lied to and poisoned and that we must stand up together. Live your life with no regrets but try and make it a better place for the generations after us. We have all been fooled, don't make it worse ❤
Trump is a want to be Ross Perot. Perot is an actual self made businessman that has done great things unless like that self-fish liar such as trump.
😢 RIP❣️
He was correct but was also a plant and why we ended up with slick willie
His hatred of Bush, while deserved, drove him to enter the race...but I'm not sure he was a plant. When he dropped out, I (and a lot of people) wondered if that was the case, but sadly we'll never know for sure. One thing is for sure, though....he would have been a better POTUS for America than either Clinton or Bush.
These days, heads of companies make way more than basketball players.

Este señor tuvo todo durante su vida, dinero, mucho poder, era prepotente, lógicamente soportado por el poder del dinero, el hombre ideal de los tiempos actuales, sin embargo le faltó el valor moral de la nobleza y más valores por citar, esos valores que solo puede lograr alguien que tiene educacion
