However, there is no doubt that he paved the way and, in my mind, served as a blueprint for Trump's campaign. Trump used the lessons learned and didn't try to run as an Independent, which will never be successful in our entrenched, two-party, system. So for that, even though we got 8yrs of the Clintons, I am thankful.

I think I posted here a few years ago hoping Ross Perot has just one more middle finger bird flip left in him regarding entrenched American politics.
He certainly seemed the type to get s#!t done.
I wonder what’s in his will?
$1 billion well spent in the right hands could create positive change.
A guy can dream!
I was a big fan of Perot’s running mate Admiral James Stockdale.
It was a shame how he was portrayed by SNL’s Phil Hartman, “Who am I? Why am I here?” soundbite twisted into something cruel, when Admiral Stockdale was both an intellectual titan and a great human being.
Well, Phil Hartman got a visit from karma.
