Imagine if the electoral college was abolished a little before the 1992 election. How many more people would have gotten out to vote? Perot could have won by at least 38% of the popular vote, if he didn't take a break from campaigning and had campaigned more in the swing states. Several things would happen: NAFTA would not be signed, the Glass-Steagall act would not be repealed, Americans would be able to vote directly on issues via the edemocracy, we would have single-payer healthcare, and the military would not be sent to invade sovereign nations for resources! He would have probably been the next FDR with a bit more of added fiscal conservatism.
Damm, the boomers really screwed us 😕 no doubt. If I was old enough back in 92 to vote for him, I would have voted 🗳 for him without a shadow of a dobut .
What I've always respected about Perot is how specific his ideas are. He doesn't hide behind sweeping platitudes and promises of "free college for all" or "something terrific to replace healthcare". He lays out the plan and how to pay for it. Wish we had more of that.
I voted for him too, and was laughed at. Now, both parties and their supporters are rabidly racist, insane, waste tax money, we are in more debt, both war mongers, fighting over stupid things, worshipping superman Obama or the Trump or Hilary like they are the second coming of Christ,. Chris Hedges, I don't agree with everything Hedges says, but when he gave a speech 20 years ago at a college and warned about wars around the world, the Americans booed him off the stage. Now, 20 years later, other countries like China (Perot warned against NAFTA, constant wars, but both parties supported Nafta, so both parties are guilty of so many wicked and evil things) Trump has a very bad history that the majority of Americans don't care to expose, as well as the liberal Clinton, Obama supporters. Now everyone is vilifying Bush and now liberals are embracing Bush, what a silly dangerous country. If you are not wealthy, you will be regentrified, we have no money for schools or infrastructure, many people are on drugs, dying, the crime rate is high whether it is street inner city crime or white collar crime both are affecting society and making most people poor. Well, Americans voted for this and they are so irrational, one cannot talk to extremist Trump Right wing or Left Liberal Demorats, and yet there is fighting inside each group against each other!
I did vote for Ross. I thought he was awesome and still do. This video should be aired on mainstream TV showing what we really need for our country. A true Patriot!
Such a beautiful approach to running a campaign. No virtue signaling. No circus acts. Modest rhetoric. Just focused on the real problems everyday Americans face and presented his plan to fix them
The only man that I ever believed in then and now The Donald. I will not cast a vote for anyone unless I "believe" in them. I believe that a business minded person will be what we need.
I agree, but for different reasons. Government isn't a business it's an organization that collects taxes, and spends it on things for the population. I think Ron Paul was right on the fact that the American people need to redefine what the role of government is. It's doing way too much, but doesn't do it right because it isn't a business which can fail for bad economic policies... So it has no business doing business. Get where I am going?
My elderly parents (both die hard democrats. LOVED Ron Paul. I always expected my father to be more republican actually) I didn't know enough to really say one way or the other. He sounds like he was a popular fellow.
I respect those that say what they feel. I just do. Even if it is not what we wish to hear. I always felt that a detached business person would be our salvation. Just my wee little thought amongst my wee little self.
Crazy. During the 1990s and early 2000s the Australian governw got rid of the national debt under Prime Minister, John Howard. As soon as there was a change in government, it went back up and again and within several years was close to or surpassed the previous peak debt.
Hell yeah!! My mom voted for him in 1992. This dude was FDR 2.0 unquestionably! In fact, if FDR were alive in 1992, he would have endorsed Perot! His ending speech made me tear up a bit. It's frightening how right he was. And this is why I will never ever vote for one of the two major parties again.
I voted for Mr. Perot and I surely miss him. Our debt was only $4 trillion and as he pointed out, manageable, but at $31 trillion, today, I don't know if we can ever come back from this. 😔
"This is our legislature and our president trying to buy our vote with what used to be our money. We are not that dumb." How can you not love Ross Perot?
I’m a staunch social democrat (progressive). I would of voted Perot. When he was asked if the government should step in to help fund poor families healthcare costs not only did he say yes he also said that he supported a single payer system. Good god what a mistake the previous generation did for not voting for him. Truly was the people’s voice.
He was a devout critique of trickle down economics and was most definitely about the working people of the nation without it coming off as demonizing the wealthy . It was about fairness and common sense approach to governing . Notice , nothing said about government is all bad . In fact , Ross Perot spoke allot about government investment and the top 1%p paying rheir fair share. Sadly in todays toxic environment, he would be called a socialist to go there .
Perot was great because he gave specifics with charts and facts. More debates need that instead of the typical generalized rhetoric. For you more left slanted folks who dont want to listen to his specifics, did you not get his comment about trickle down economics and the disparity in wealth? That supports your ideals. Listen and pay attention to the whole thing. Businessmen are not all greed and hate like you believe.
DrStrangel0ve2 Yeah but the problem is that a lot of millennials and usually liberals just assume that all business people or companies have nothing but evil intentions which is a pretty juvenile position. Employment comes from employers and employers are business owners. Government should not be looked upon to be the world's employer. Taxing business especially small business to death is bad news for the economy. Perot would also agree with that, but he also understood the problem with laissez fair economics. At the same time he said we need to cut government spending. He does not fit perfectly in the Democrat or Republican mold and that's exactly what we need.
+stockjonebills I am very liberal and I love Perot's ideas. I'm not trying to start a fight, but you should watch how you say things. In your statement "usually liberals just assume ... which is a pretty juvenile position." Is, by its own definition (generalization / assumption), a pretty juvenile position. If it's not clear, it's because you are generalizing and making assumptions about liberals. I believe liberals are very appreciative of small/mid sized business owners, which is why the rhetoric tends to use the world "corporations," which are shareholder owned legal entities. I would argue that the biggest problem today is the use of religion (by rich republicans) to get poor people to vote against their own self-interest. So many poor people vote on one or two fucking issues: abortion / gay rights. If people voted in their own (generally financial) self-interest, exclusive of those issues, the republican party would not have a chance.
You are right. Saying things like "usually liberals just assume" is being a bit biased. The reason I said that, is that from my experience, a lot of people these days that lean to the left tend to scrutinize anyone who is a CEO or a business person with the evil corporation connotation. Perot wasn't just a small business owner as you try and differentiate from a corporation. He was the owner and CEO of a very large corporation.
+stockjonebills It's of course true (liberals). Corporations, like armies, like any group of people, do things that a single individual would never do (I don't remember which philosopher said that), but it's too simple to just say they're the reason for all the world's ills. I am pretty far left, and it annoys the hell out of me when I see leftist rhetoric that shows clearly that they haven't even tried to see the other perspective. We expect it from the Right and say "we're better than them" but are often just as ignorant, spouting the party's line. It just sucks because it's so hard to get ANY unbiased info. I wish we'd have put Perot in just to see what would have happened. The only one to say sacrifice now, reap later... of course that's too honest to get you elected. Why can't we reap without sowing? We're America dammit! : (
+jwgmail I agree. I think a lot of people arent completely black and white democrat or republican. Most people are more biased then they realize. All of us have biases. I commend you for wanting to always listen to and consider both sides of the argument. I try to do the same.
It's just fascinating how deeply he presents his case, not avoiding any 'unpleasant' surprise or anything. I'd sell my belongings just to have another man bring his ideas like that to the public sphere. This is REAL democracy !
You should be proud. You actually vote for a good politician. Most Americans have done nothing but vote for crooks who are the reason why young Americans are worse of than their parents
I'm not an american and I had just been born during this time but by god I was engaged for the entirety of the 30 minutes of this video. Mr. Perot I give my symbolic vote to you
I loved the way he talked. I remember him saying something like, “ If you elect Clinton (I think he said Clinton) you are going to hear a giant sucking sound coming out of your wallet. “ What a gem.
This is the greatest Presidential Presentation I’ve ever laid eyes on and put ears to. Words can’t describe how sad I am in 2021 that we did not get to see President Ross Perot
Perot, Nader, Bernie...this country had its chances but blew it. The other two candidates clowned him, because they were threatened by him. You cannot dispute facts, and look where we are now. The country has to be run like a business, plain and simple.
Americans today wouldnt even be ready to watch a 30minute video of somebody explaining how they plan to do well. The debates aren't even debates anymore, we just have a show of who has the best punchlines.
It began with the rigged election of George Washington and their federalist papers- once he grabbed control Washington set about using the military against people who didn't want to pay taxes. Read about The Whiskey Rebellion- it's eye opening.
I can GLADLY say I voted for this man ! He made So much sense and may very well have reversed the course we're currently on....but too many Americans keep their heads buried in the sand.
The part I like is.."if you dont like my idea, show me a better one and we will use that". He wasnt married to any specific approach. He was open to re-examining his platform on the fly.
Trump is a little bit like him. Not entirely, but Trump was apart of his reform party for some years and even ran under it for president in 2000. Perot is definitely more professional, Trump is more eccentric. Both have their pros and cons
@wizardwaluigi8623 Absolutely he shook the entire political system for good or bad and agreed, his 2000 run was a bit of stunt but still he was apart of Perot’s reform party. He was most similar to Perot when it came to trade. They both hold different liberal and conservative social and economic views, but I’d say they’re similar. The funny thing is, I was born in 2003 I wasn’t even alive in 2000 lmao. Just love history and politics. My parents born in the 60s didn’t even know Trump ran 2000.
For all those people complementing Perot and saying we missed an opportunity in voting for him. Well the opportunity is still there. He laid out the problems and the solutions in this very video. The blueprint is there folks, we just need someone to take the torch from Perot!
I remember watching this..Ross was so ahead. Of his time ..my first vote was for Mr.Perot ..I feel good about all these years later the cooperate Republican&Democrats there is no difference
As a child of the 90’s, I remember seeing this man portrayed as a joke from network news to Nickelodeon. Now I can see why that was the narrative. He was spreading the truth of the agenda and he was a huge threat to the elite if he got people to listen.
Everybody needs to share this with everybody. He was absolutely right back then and I wish we had somebody in 2024 that was running that had his nerve money to run and believed in his plan. I’m here in 2024 and he was absolutely right or fucked And I don’t look like it’s gonna get any better
I think Trump is going to release his full blown master plan when he gets the nomination. He's just hiding it so his competition (the other nominees) don't cookie-cut his plans or them finding a weak spot for them to attack him. My two cents though. Just basically tin-foil hat bullshit. Lol.
So rational and logical. Never since have we seen anyone speak specifically, with numbers and charts. He was too real, too smart, too specific, too competent. Wish we had more like him. Where are you, 2024 rational candidate?
The national debt was $4 trillion at the time. Now it's $34.4 trillion. I can understand why some billionaires have underground bunkers built in remote regions.
Most people don't know this, but this man literally lead a mercenary band to get his employees out of Iran during the Iranian revolution. During the revolution, his employees were stuck in Iran as hostages. What he did is spend millions of dollars to hire a mercenary band and literally lead a private covert ops operation to get them out. He was a total bad ass.
A solid plan ngl. A Perot presidency could have been a good one, but let's be real, if he did win, he's problem would be two parties who will not answer to him, unless he leans in either of them. That or he rolls 100 in persuasion or has all the charisma perks from Fall Out New Vegas
Trickle down economics is a stupid term leftist liberal democrats created in order to sell their big government socialist welfare state policies to their brainwashed and greedy lefty voter base who think rich people are to blame for their failures in life
He ran as independant, if he had chosen republican he likely would have won. I think this was a time when people were tired of a republican president, we gave democrats a try they sucked even more. I really wish we wouldve won.
Everything trickles down. Either capitalism or communism. Except in Venezuela a communist tsunami wiped everything out in less then half a century. Unskilled income wages were higher in the 80s and 90s. Regan did that.
Being 20 years old engineering student at FSU in Tallahassee in 1992 . Just because I loved this engineer mans ideas. Even though I am a foreigner, I volunteered for his campaign full heartedly. Because I believed he was not only the best for USA, also would be the best for the World. If he was elected most of todays world problems would not exist.
I respectfully disagree with your last sentence but had he been elected he would have slowed the problems down enough for most Americans to finally wake up to the 2 party 1 establishment system.
I remember having a mock election when I was in elementary school and we had to go into a booth and use and old Apple II to vote for our candidate. We could choose from Clinton, Dole and Perot. Even then, as an adolescent I knew that Perot was the right choice.
Omg me too. The tv channel Nickelodeon had a 'kids vote' mock election where u could call in and I also voted Perot. Children can tell honesty and goodness directly.
I was a very young kid when all this was happening but im trying to figure out after listening to this HOW THE HELL DID EVERYONE NOT VOTE FOR HIM? They had to be really stupid. They were already starting to feel the financial pinch then I know so how the hell did they not vote for him? Its mind boggling and actually pretty infuriating!
Thanks Mr. Wilson. Today I am 47, but In 1992 I was 19 and while at that time I like to think of myself as educated, now I realize I still had a lot to learn.
Wow now I see why my dad praises this man... He always told me when I get in political talk.. "I lost faith in this country when a man like Ross Perot doesn't win the election by a landslide" and he was right
America wasn’t ready and will never be ready for a President like this. He’s too honest. He didn’t blink when he said that taxes needed to be raised and entitlements reduced. The majority of voters are unwilling to make sacrifices for the greater good. It’s always “someone else” that needs to make the sacrifices to resolve the problem. Today, and always, the politicians will say it’s the “rich” not paying their fair share while completely ignoring the government spending problem. Rest assured folks that if Perot was elected president most of this stuff wouldn’t have happened because it would have required Congress to work together to pass legislation quickly to implement the plan.
Ross Perot had common sense and probably could have been a great potus, but unfortunately we have a two party system and if your not a part of that you have no real shot at becoming the president regardless of your ability, intelligence, talents.
A 2016-updated Perot of same age and health as in this video would win a Clinton-Perot-Trump three-way. This program is quite exactly what the US independent- and swing-voters are demanding right now. If Sanders somehow manages to topple Clinton I believe he will win the election over any GOP candidates, just owing to the sheer fact he's the sole candidate who vowes to rebuild the middle class.
Keep Rocking! Imagine the heat he was most likely dealing with to make him drop out tho. They would’ve had his head if he won, not that they would ever let it happen
Actually, he would have won if he hasn't dropped out for 3 months and then came back. He got... 20% of the vote or something like that. I huge amount for 3rd party. People lost a lot of confidence when he dropped out. And I think there were some shenanigans involved in that.
I was to young to vote or understand, but seeing this I cant understand why he didnt win its sad honestly because todays canidates have no plan as extensive as this.

And he even said the stuff you don’t wanna hear
Exactly
@@rhettshanley8712 exactly
I votedfor him. The greatest president that never was. People mocked me for voting for him but I realize now how right my decision was.
^I voted for him. Not Ivotedfor him.
I am sorry not enough people like you voted. the USA really missed out.
@@maudeboggins9834 It's U.S.A. not USA you fucking idiot
I voted for him too, and was laughed at. Now, both parties and their supporters are rabidly racist, insane, waste tax money, we are in more debt, both war mongers, fighting over stupid things, worshipping superman Obama or the Trump or Hilary like they are the second coming of Christ,. Chris Hedges, I don't agree with everything Hedges says, but when he gave a speech 20 years ago at a college and warned about wars around the world, the Americans booed him off the stage. Now, 20 years later, other countries like China (Perot warned against NAFTA, constant wars, but both parties supported Nafta, so both parties are guilty of so many wicked and evil things) Trump has a very bad history that the majority of Americans don't care to expose, as well as the liberal Clinton, Obama supporters. Now everyone is vilifying Bush and now liberals are embracing Bush, what a silly dangerous country. If you are not wealthy, you will be regentrified, we have no money for schools or infrastructure, many people are on drugs, dying, the crime rate is high whether it is street inner city crime or white collar crime both are affecting society and making most people poor. Well, Americans voted for this and they are so irrational, one cannot talk to extremist Trump Right wing or Left Liberal Demorats, and yet there is fighting inside each group against each other!

I did vote for Ross. I thought he was awesome and still do. This video should be aired on mainstream TV showing what we really need for our country. A true Patriot!
I did too in, '96, I was too young in, '92.
I've heard from many Texans that Ross Perot is the Real Deal. He is an honorable man and he would've made a great President. America's loss.
@Bbm add#11 Not an argument!!!
Uhh well, it's on the internet now... So, it has gotten way more fucking people to watch it now than it would ever get on network TV.
@Bbm add#11 ~ A moron? hardly
R.I.P. Mr. Perot. You were spot on and hope you’re in a better place w full knowledge that you tried as best you could.
Pearl harbor Tennessee patriot history
Such a beautiful approach to running a campaign. No virtue signaling. No circus acts. Modest rhetoric. Just focused on the real problems everyday Americans face and presented his plan to fix them
Back when the country could still be saved.......
The only man that I ever believed in then and now The Donald. I will not cast a vote for anyone unless I "believe" in them. I believe that a business minded person will be what we need.
I agree, but for different reasons. Government isn't a business it's an organization that collects taxes, and spends it on things for the population. I think Ron Paul was right on the fact that the American people need to redefine what the role of government is. It's doing way too much, but doesn't do it right because it isn't a business which can fail for bad economic policies... So it has no business doing business. Get where I am going?
My elderly parents (both die hard democrats. LOVED Ron Paul. I always expected my father to be more republican actually) I didn't know enough to really say one way or the other. He sounds like he was a popular fellow.
I respect those that say what they feel. I just do. Even if it is not what we wish to hear. I always felt that a detached business person would be our salvation. Just my wee little thought amongst my wee little self.
I have a very accurate 6th sense.
4.1 trillion in 1992....25 yrs later its 20.
Thanks W & Bama
Yeah we're pretty fucked now. They need a war to get out of this mess now, they know it and that's scary as hell.
It’s about to get to 22 trillion
@@taelorwatson9822 it goes further than that
Crazy. During the 1990s and early 2000s the Australian governw got rid of the national debt under Prime Minister, John Howard. As soon as there was a change in government, it went back up and again and within several years was close to or surpassed the previous peak debt.
If you believe that Ross Perot could've been an amazing US president for 2020, give me a hell yeah!
I'm from India,and I give you a HELL YEAH!! You need Perot,heck even we need Perot!
Hell yeah!! My mom voted for him in 1992. This dude was FDR 2.0 unquestionably! In fact, if FDR were alive in 1992, he would have endorsed Perot!
His ending speech made me tear up a bit. It's frightening how right he was. And this is why I will never ever vote for one of the two major parties again.
You had my vote, one I've never regretted. You were our last hope to reign in the national debt. Thank you for trying to save our country!
"I'm Ross and you're the boss." He's lived a life based on truth.
Wow! I was 12 when this man ran for president. If I heard him today, he would get my vote
Yea, if he was running today he would get everyones vote.
Hiram Crumley The 2nd independent president
I was 11
Watching this today I would vote for him too
Not anymore.... 😢
I voted for Mr. Perot and I surely miss him. Our debt was only $4 trillion and as he pointed out, manageable, but at $31 trillion, today, I don't know if we can ever come back from this. 😔
"This is our legislature and our president trying to buy our vote with what used to be our money. We are not that dumb."
How can you not love Ross Perot?
I’m a staunch social democrat (progressive). I would of voted Perot. When he was asked if the government should step in to help fund poor families healthcare costs not only did he say yes he also said that he supported a single payer system. Good god what a mistake the previous generation did for not voting for him. Truly was the people’s voice.
Agreed
He was a devout critique of trickle down economics and was most definitely about the working people of the nation without it coming off as demonizing the wealthy . It was about fairness and common sense approach to governing . Notice , nothing said about government is all bad . In fact , Ross Perot spoke allot about government investment and the top 1%p paying rheir fair share. Sadly in todays toxic environment, he would be called a socialist to go there .
Perot was great because he gave specifics with charts and facts. More debates need that instead of the typical generalized rhetoric. For you more left slanted folks who dont want to listen to his specifics, did you not get his comment about trickle down economics and the disparity in wealth? That supports your ideals. Listen and pay attention to the whole thing. Businessmen are not all greed and hate like you believe.
DrStrangel0ve2 Yeah but the problem is that a lot of millennials and usually liberals just assume that all business people or companies have nothing but evil intentions which is a pretty juvenile position. Employment comes from employers and employers are business owners. Government should not be looked upon to be the world's employer. Taxing business especially small business to death is bad news for the economy. Perot would also agree with that, but he also understood the problem with laissez fair economics. At the same time he said we need to cut government spending. He does not fit perfectly in the Democrat or Republican mold and that's exactly what we need.
+stockjonebills I am very liberal and I love Perot's ideas. I'm not trying to start a fight, but you should watch how you say things. In your statement "usually liberals just assume ... which is a pretty juvenile position." Is, by its own definition (generalization / assumption), a pretty juvenile position. If it's not clear, it's because you are generalizing and making assumptions about liberals.
I believe liberals are very appreciative of small/mid sized business owners, which is why the rhetoric tends to use the world "corporations," which are shareholder owned legal entities.
I would argue that the biggest problem today is the use of religion (by rich republicans) to get poor people to vote against their own self-interest. So many poor people vote on one or two fucking issues: abortion / gay rights. If people voted in their own (generally financial) self-interest, exclusive of those issues, the republican party would not have a chance.
You are right. Saying things like "usually liberals just assume" is being a bit biased. The reason I said that, is that from my experience, a lot of people these days that lean to the left tend to scrutinize anyone who is a CEO or a business person with the evil corporation connotation. Perot wasn't just a small business owner as you try and differentiate from a corporation. He was the owner and CEO of a very large corporation.
+stockjonebills It's of course true (liberals). Corporations, like armies, like any group of people, do things that a single individual would never do (I don't remember which philosopher said that), but it's too simple to just say they're the reason for all the world's ills. I am pretty far left, and it annoys the hell out of me when I see leftist rhetoric that shows clearly that they haven't even tried to see the other perspective. We expect it from the Right and say "we're better than them" but are often just as ignorant, spouting the party's line. It just sucks because it's so hard to get ANY unbiased info. I wish we'd have put Perot in just to see what would have happened.
The only one to say sacrifice now, reap later... of course that's too honest to get you elected. Why can't we reap without sowing? We're America dammit! : (
+jwgmail I agree. I think a lot of people arent completely black and white democrat or republican. Most people are more biased then they realize. All of us have biases. I commend you for wanting to always listen to and consider both sides of the argument. I try to do the same.
I WANT TO FORMALLY ANNOUNCE I WILL BE VOTING FOR ROSS PEROT’S GHOST IN 2024
Back when campaign ads actually appealed to the intelligent, well-informed voter.
It's just fascinating how deeply he presents his case, not avoiding any 'unpleasant' surprise or anything. I'd sell my belongings just to have another man bring his ideas like that to the public sphere. This is REAL democracy !
Imagine if this guy ran today with the power of the internet behind him.
I am proud to have voted for him
You should be proud. You actually vote for a good politician.
Most Americans have done nothing but vote for crooks who are the reason why young Americans are worse of than their parents
Is it any wonder why young Americans are becoming more extreme in their politics than before? I don't think so.
I'm not an american and I had just been born during this time but by god I was engaged for the entirety of the 30 minutes of this video. Mr. Perot I give my symbolic vote to you
USA still paying for this. 2 party system = 1 growing establishment. Inflation is the slight tax. Ross was spot on on spending
I loved the way he talked. I remember him saying something like, “ If you elect Clinton (I think he said Clinton) you are going to hear a giant sucking sound coming out of your wallet. “ What a gem.
DAM he was right! the sucking never stopped even up until this day. insane
This is the greatest Presidential Presentation I’ve ever laid eyes on and put ears to. Words can’t describe how sad I am in 2021 that we did not get to see President Ross Perot
As true today as it was in 1992.
Perot, Nader, Bernie...this country had its chances but blew it. The other two candidates clowned him, because they were threatened by him. You cannot dispute facts, and look where we are now. The country has to be run like a business, plain and simple.
At about 13 minutes in it's quite amazing how honest Perot is on raising gasoline taxes, also inviting anyone to come up with a better plan.
Americans today wouldnt even be ready to watch a 30minute video of somebody explaining how they plan to do well. The debates aren't even debates anymore, we just have a show of who has the best punchlines.
This makes me want to cry. How was this only 32 years ago? Feels like a completely different political reality. The gangrene analogy is prescient.
Yes corrupted society in Canada also.
Brainwashing population to make adult children
As a 28 year old, I yet again have another reason to resent the decisions made by my former generations🤦♂️
It began with the rigged election of George Washington and their federalist papers- once he grabbed control Washington set about using the military against people who didn't want to pay taxes. Read about The Whiskey Rebellion- it's eye opening.
Right
I can GLADLY say I voted for this man ! He made So much sense and may very well have reversed the course we're currently on....but too many Americans keep their heads buried in the sand.
The part I like is.."if you dont like my idea, show me a better one and we will use that". He wasnt married to any specific approach. He was open to re-examining his platform on the fly.
One of the reasons he was a successful businessman. The insouciant people allowed the Deep State to eliminate him.
This presentation won my vote. Finally, someone who was willing to take on our problems so that we could again be a productive part of the world.
There is someone today that might fit your bill. Take a look at Andrew Yang 2020.
I think if we had a candidate like him today he would destroy the competition. Hopefully we see someone like him again one day
Trump is a little bit like him. Not entirely, but Trump was apart of his reform party for some years and even ran under it for president in 2000. Perot is definitely more professional, Trump is more eccentric. Both have their pros and cons
@wizardwaluigi8623 Absolutely he shook the entire political system for good or bad and agreed, his 2000 run was a bit of stunt but still he was apart of Perot’s reform party. He was most similar to Perot when it came to trade. They both hold different liberal and conservative social and economic views, but I’d say they’re similar. The funny thing is, I was born in 2003 I wasn’t even alive in 2000 lmao. Just love history and politics. My parents born in the 60s didn’t even know Trump ran 2000.
Dude I was a kid when he was around and all I remember is people making fun of him. Look g back at this this guy was awesome!!
For all those people complementing Perot and saying we missed an opportunity in voting for him. Well the opportunity is still there. He laid out the problems and the solutions in this very video. The blueprint is there folks, we just need someone to take the torch from Perot!
I remember watching this..Ross was so ahead. Of his time ..my first vote was for Mr.Perot ..I feel good about all these years later the cooperate Republican&Democrats there is no difference
He was ahead of his time and I voted for him. Still feel good about it.
As a child of the 90’s, I remember seeing this man portrayed as a joke from network news to Nickelodeon. Now I can see why that was the narrative. He was spreading the truth of the agenda and he was a huge threat to the elite if he got people to listen.
I was thinking this as well while watching the video. It was pure propaganda against him.
Ross Perot quoted Marcus Tullius Cicero. That’s tremendous.
God, I wish he would have won, I voted for him twice, and proud of it
Beautiful speech. Love when he shits on trickle-down economics.
Exactly it's such bull, that's why I don't understand why we still do it by giving the rich tax cuts =/
Everybody needs to share this with everybody. He was absolutely right back then and I wish we had somebody in 2024 that was running that had his nerve money to run and believed in his plan. I’m here in 2024 and he was absolutely right or fucked And I don’t look like it’s gonna get any better
At the next presidential debate, they should just play this video while the candidates shut up and listen.
And we're still getting trickled on 40 years latter.
Miss that man. We could certainly use a guy like Ross these days.
***** Bernie Sanders?
Patrick Flaherty I think so, yes.
Don't worry, we have Trump.
There are similarities, certainly. Still, I've yet to see a Pie Chart or Bar Graph.
I think Trump is going to release his full blown master plan when he gets the nomination. He's just hiding it so his competition (the other nominees) don't cookie-cut his plans or them finding a weak spot for them to attack him.
My two cents though. Just basically tin-foil hat bullshit. Lol.
We had our chance and missed it. He was the right man at the right time.
He should be the measuring stick for all politicians!
I got your measuring stick right here.

This guy was smart , im proud to say i voted for him.
I love the way he specifically showed where the government spending was going to be cut. You could tell he actually cared about America.
So rational and logical. Never since have we seen anyone speak specifically, with numbers and charts. He was too real, too smart, too specific, too competent. Wish we had more like him. Where are you, 2024 rational candidate?
The national debt was $4 trillion at the time. Now it's $34.4 trillion. I can understand why some billionaires have underground bunkers built in remote regions.
This guy was a genius.
Most people don't know this, but this man literally lead a mercenary band to get his employees out of Iran during the Iranian revolution. During the revolution, his employees were stuck in Iran as hostages. What he did is spend millions of dollars to hire a mercenary band and literally lead a private covert ops operation to get them out. He was a total bad ass.
For the sake of better English Please get a thesaurus!!!
A solid plan ngl. A Perot presidency could have been a good one, but let's be real, if he did win, he's problem would be two parties who will not answer to him, unless he leans in either of them. That or he rolls 100 in persuasion or has all the charisma perks from Fall Out New Vegas
A republican saying that trickle-down economics doesn't work is certainly something I never thought I'd see...
Trickle down economics is a stupid term leftist liberal democrats created in order to sell their big government socialist welfare state policies to their brainwashed and greedy lefty voter base who think rich people are to blame for their failures in life
LOL yes and trickle down welfare and poverty is surely working, right Democrats?
@@ModalGroove you sound like a rich person who thinks job going to come from us middle class and poor paying more taxes so they can pay less or none
He ran as independant, if he had chosen republican he likely would have won. I think this was a time when people were tired of a republican president, we gave democrats a try they sucked even more. I really wish we wouldve won.
Everything trickles down. Either capitalism or communism. Except in Venezuela a communist tsunami wiped everything out in less then half a century. Unskilled income wages were higher in the 80s and 90s. Regan did that.
Being 20 years old engineering student at FSU in Tallahassee in 1992 . Just because I loved this engineer mans ideas. Even though I am a foreigner, I volunteered for his campaign full heartedly. Because I believed he was not only the best for USA, also would be the best for the World. If he was elected most of todays world problems would not exist.
I respectfully disagree with your last sentence but had he been elected he would have slowed the problems down enough for most Americans to finally wake up to the 2 party 1 establishment system.
100%, I agree. The USA would’ve not been in the mess it’s in today.
Trump added 8 trillion, now it’s 34 trillion, 30 trillion in 32 years, love and miss this guy.
Now we're adding 1 trillion every 100 days.
I remember having a mock election when I was in elementary school and we had to go into a booth and use and old Apple II to vote for our candidate. We could choose from Clinton, Dole and Perot. Even then, as an adolescent I knew that Perot was the right choice.
Omg me too. The tv channel Nickelodeon had a 'kids vote' mock election where u could call in and I also voted Perot. Children can tell honesty and goodness directly.
I was a very young kid when all this was happening but im trying to figure out after listening to this HOW THE HELL DID EVERYONE NOT VOTE FOR HIM? They had to be really stupid. They were already starting to feel the financial pinch then I know so how the hell did they not vote for him? Its mind boggling and actually pretty infuriating!
My school did as well. Should have seen the looks on our teachers' faces when it was announced Parot won the election.
I’m 19 and I just have to say, America really dropped the ball not electing this guy.
Everything he said happened and we'll never have life like we had here again.
This is one of the greatest political speeches of all time! A real inspiration for my upcoming video on my channel on what if Ross Perot had won.
Thanks to the JRE for shedding some light on this old beauty.
Thanks Mr. Wilson. Today I am 47, but In 1992 I was 19 and while at that time I like to think of myself as educated, now I realize I still had a lot to learn.
A presidential candidate quoting obscure Cicero would be a wet dream in today’s world
I voted for Perot when I was 19. Watching this again in 2021 has me disappointed all over again that he didn't win. Perhaps more so.
Everyone laughed, nobody listened, and it only got worse!
This man was the best candidate that americans could have had,but in the world we live in he never had a chance.
Wow now I see why my dad praises this man... He always told me when I get in political talk.. "I lost faith in this country when a man like Ross Perot doesn't win the election by a landslide" and he was right
Rest In Peace to Ross Perot
Perot wanted to oppose trickle down economics. He has my respect
I remember watching every show & voted for the man. We would have a better country today, if he became our President in 1992.
Ross Perot is a very stirring speaker.He does bring up some great points.
Why would anyone thumb down this video?
Dilemmaps3 they are bush and clinton supporters
Liberal socialist
Idiots
This man TOOK OVER THE AIRWAVES OUT OF HIS OWN POCKET IN 1991 PEOPLE HAVE NO IDEA HOW BIG THIS WAS
America wasn’t ready and will never be ready for a President like this. He’s too honest. He didn’t blink when he said that taxes needed to be raised and entitlements reduced. The majority of voters are unwilling to make sacrifices for the greater good. It’s always “someone else” that needs to make the sacrifices to resolve the problem.
Today, and always, the politicians will say it’s the “rich” not paying their fair share while completely ignoring the government spending problem. Rest assured folks that if Perot was elected president most of this stuff wouldn’t have happened because it would have required Congress to work together to pass legislation quickly to implement the plan.
We so much need him in 2024!
I can’t believe how on point his predictions were. This is incredible.
Ross was my first ever vote. Even then I knew... When Red or Blue wins, we lose.
Ross Perot had common sense and probably could have been a great potus, but unfortunately we have a two party system and if your not a part of that you have no real shot at becoming the president regardless of your ability, intelligence, talents.
A 2016-updated Perot of same age and health as in this video would win a Clinton-Perot-Trump three-way. This program is quite exactly what the US independent- and swing-voters are demanding right now. If Sanders somehow manages to topple Clinton I believe he will win the election over any GOP candidates, just owing to the sheer fact he's the sole candidate who vowes to rebuild the middle class.
Plus Ross looked like a nerd while Clinton looks like a gentleman. Looks give off a vibe regardless of what's true
@@DGzCarbon thats because Americans vote like they are watching tv
Keep Rocking! Imagine the heat he was most likely dealing with to make him drop out tho. They would’ve had his head if he won, not that they would ever let it happen
Actually, he would have won if he hasn't dropped out for 3 months and then came back. He got... 20% of the vote or something like that. I huge amount for 3rd party. People lost a lot of confidence when he dropped out. And I think there were some shenanigans involved in that.
Wow. The deficit was only $4 Trillion when he ran. He would have cleaned it up, too. And I voted for him. RIP, Mr. Perot.
I was to young to vote or understand, but seeing this I cant understand why he didnt win its sad honestly because todays canidates have no plan as extensive as this.
Debt, not deficit. Get it straight.
