Perot made his bid when I was just getting old enough to start paying attention to stuff like this and only a few years away from being able to vote
(if I would have been a democrat I could have already voted 10 times by then j/k).
He was a lot like Paul in that he said what he thought, he didn't pretty it up and he didn't much give a damn if you didn't like it. And like Paul....
He never had a chance. Because of the reasons I just listed and more.
There will never be a man like Perot, or Paul that will ever stand a chance in the current system the sheep keep supporting. Not ever. It will be
snowing on the hill tops of hell before that will happen. Maybe not even then.
If I had one wish for current politics, it would be for all parties to be required to drop that R or D off the end of their names when running for
office and maybe even while holding it. It's obvious that we as a society are never going to become smart enough to quit buying into the 2 party
bullshiite, so maybe if it's dropped for them, they will be able to go along with it for some real change.
As long as everyone keeps for for a letter of the alphabet and not for the man/woman and the job they promise to do themselves, we are going to keep
getting screwed.
I liked Perot. He was refreshing and I wish we saw more like him and Paul coming out of the woodwork. We need something different. Not just a
different speech.
