When Ross Perot Calls…

Let's clarify something. Perot got lots of folks excited about him running for President and then bailed out. He still got 19% of the votes. But his real message to the politicians was loud and clear. Special interest run this country let me show you....Out went the Republicans.... His racist message or ignorance is also loud and clear: "Their hand-eye productivity is incredible because of drawing the symbols," Either way you don't count Perot so go back to goat roping....

When NAFTA and WTA was being discussed, I remember Mr. Perot warning if those agreements were signed and allowed to go through, it was signing and giving away the USA. I wonder if we are seeing the results now? Fewer jobs here everyday, more foreclosures everyday because we are out of work and cannot pay any interest rate reguardless of the bailout, there needs to be jobs and a paycheck to make payments on homes, cars, and food. Just maybe Mr. Perot knew a little about business and the shape of things to come if those 2 items were signed! If there were more smart people like him who would listen to a good business man, we qould not be in the shape we are in. Lets sell our banks to foreigners!

He is right on point about everything except the opinion that Bush is a decent human being. He is not. If he were running this year I would vote for him.

He is right o point about everything except the fact that Bush is a decent human being.

Fruitcake is as fruitcake does

yeah the main part of the conversation that you had with Perot was that last tid bit above about his experience in business. you don't suppose that Perot has invested in Romney's companies of vice versa do you? This is a load of bull and as McCain said he is nuttier than a fruitcake

Why don't you name the books Perot recommended?

Perot's ego gave us Clinton...he should be ashamed.

Why don't you name the books Perot recommended?? I'm sure the authors would like that and maybe this way someone might read them, because it doesn't seem like you are in any hury to.

i think ross perot should run again because i have taled to other people who said they would volt for him

Mr. Alter,

I was not born until 1972, and therefore have no memories of the era. However, I have become very well acquainted with four men who served as POWs in North Vietnam for periods of time ranging from 2 years to 7.5 years, one of whom was held prisoner for almost 6 years and was John McCain's cellmate for over a year in Hanoi. I have personally spoken to them and heard them speak to others about living POWs left behind in Vietnam. They all believe - and claim that all POWs they know believe - that all living American POWs were brought home. They had ways of communicating in the prison and LOTS of free time on their hands. They memorized each others names and, when they were released, they each wrote down all the names they could remember. Each person on every list was accounted for as either having died or been returned to the United States.

The gentleman who was Mr. McCain's cell mate does not always see eye-to-eye with Mr. McCain, but has great respect for him. His quote is, "John is a fine man, and we keep in touch, but he's not my kind of Republican." But, he has told me very emphatically that John McCain cares very deeply for the POW/MIA cause, and does not believe that Senator McCain would take it lightly. In my opinion, it is almost blasphemous to Perot to suggest otherwise on such a sensative subject.

The men that I know all have an immense respect for the late Admiral James Stockdale, who was also a POW in North Vietnam and ran as Ross Perot's VP on the '92 and '96 tickets, so I am not trying to belittle Mr. Perot, his service to his country, or his opinion about the state of our country's affairs. But, if the prisoners themselves do not believe that anyone was left behind, why does Perot? You mentioned his belief in Obama disrespecting the Pledge of Allegiance because of an email he received, and that's very telling because there are also emails about living POWs in Vietnam that also claim "evidence" but do not give any of it.

As a child, I had the opportunity to know my great-grandparents who lost a son in WWII (pilot of B-24 bomber), and they were once told by his fellow crewmembers that "Stephen parachuted out. I saw it myself." That haunted my great grandmother until her dying day, even though some remains and personal effects were found at the crash site. So, I know first hand what Mr. McCain is talking about when he says this is a cruel hoax on families. Perot needs to stick with finance and stop believing everything he reads on the web.

Please, PLEASE!!! Listen to Ron Paul!!! He wants to do something about the almost 50% income tax we pay not counting the state taxes. He wants to end the war. The government controls everything we do from manatory seat belts to no smoking. Our forefathers are turning over in their graves with our loss of freedom. The things so many have fought and died for have been taken away for us. He wants to give us, the people of the US, our freedom back from the government. This is will never happen if we elect the same people that have been running the government for many years. We need to get all the support we can for Mr. Paul!!! This
may be your last chance so please listen to him!!! Things have to change in this country cause the rich keep
getting richer and the poorer keep getting poorer. Pretty soon we will all be the poorer!!! Don't just follow someone cause everyone else is, please think for yourself. WAKE UP!!! You CAN make a better life for yourself and your children!!

In a nutshell-I voted or Ross and happen to like how he thinks.
IMPORTANT: Here's my opportunity to let everyone know that regardless of who they want to be president and whether they are Republican or Democrat, PLEASE VOTE FOR OBAMA IN THE PRIMARIES. WE DO NOT NEED HILLARY CLINTON TO WIN THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINATION.
FYI- I am a republican and may very well cast my presidential vote that way however Obama is the next best option and certainly wouldn't mind him being president either, but the thought of Hillary in that position scares the living h--- out of me and should everyone else also.

I wonder why Perot feels the US has to put our house in order-could it be because of decent W in charge the last 8 years or should I say VP Cheney has run the show. Mr. Perot should speak out more about the disservice W's administration has done to all vets, all the time, right now-all Republicans are ashamed of the lack of leadership and Bush's disdain of those he feels aren't born again. John McCain should have been the candidate in '00 but materialistic and "godly" values fooled a lot of Republicans...glad to be a Catholic democrat
