And no, that is NOT why Trump is running.
I remembered back a few years (to around late '80's early 1990's) to when I read a book by a fav author of mine, Ken Follett, called "On Wings of Eagles," which was later made into a tv miniseries, in 1986, starring Richard Crenna. This book revolved around EDS's founder, Ross Perot's organizing and founding an entry into Iran to extract EDS employees!
Like Trump, Perot loathed most of Congress.andfelt they made deals with other countries and many corporations in secret and against the will of both the people but also against the Constitution!
Perot certainly never liked nor trusted CIA director, George HW Bush and didn't trust the State Department nor the CIA!
Unlike the hick/hayseed you claim Perot to be, the man has quite a distinguished history: he became one of the nation's youngest Eagle Scouts fourteen months after entering the program, receiving the Distinguished Eagle Scout Award; graduating from the US Naval Academy with honors and established its honor system; after serving in the Navy, he joined IBM becoming its top employee and fulfilled his annual sales quota in two weeks. Deciding IBM was lagging behind in computer technology, he established EDS, in 1962, computerized Medicare records and went public selling for $16.00 a share rising to $160.00 within days; after losing out in a power struggle, Steve Jobs found his "angel investor" in Ross Perot.
Perot's net worth in 2015, was estimated at $2.4 billion.
Along the way, Perot was one of the government's biggest foe in "forgetting it's own behind enemy lines"and became a tireless worker for POW/MIA, especially in Vietnam. Obviously in so doing, pushed the government and especially the Pentagon and Defense Department, breaking lots of glass houses and making lots of enemies along the way.
He became a pariah to the Bush family, namely Geo. H.W. Bush, mostly because of his desire that all missing vets be accounted for and returned home. He also believed that the reason behind the government's push back was to cover up for running drugs to finance a war in Laos. His run-ins with the government, especially Richard Armatage!
While I never supported Perot, believing Bush, et al, would be best, I acknowledge my desire to trust government lots less when I met up with some Vietnam vets who told me what all Perot had done for them and their families.
Quirky, yes, autocratic, probably but honorable, patriot Ross Perot is nobody's fool, much less, moron!
