That's BS. He managed to get his employees out of Iran, which an American dimmacrat president couldn't do even with all the might of the US military. He is a true American patriot. In 1969, while John McCain was a POW, Ross Perot paid for McCain's first wife's medical treatment after a devastating auto accident:
While visiting her family in Philadelphia on Christmas Eve 1969,[15] Carol McCain was driving alone in snowy, icy conditions. Approaching an intersection on an isolated country road, she skidded and collided with a telephone pole, was thrown from the car into the snow, and went into shock. Some time later she was found and taken to Bryn Mawr Hospital;[10] she had two smashed legs, a broken pelvis, broken arm, and ruptured spleen. She spent six months in the hospital, and over the course of the next two years had 23 operations,[10] which rebuilt her legs with rods and pins,[11] as well as extensive physical therapy.[17] She did not tell her husband about the accident in her letters to him, believing he already had enough to worry about,[10] and the U.S. State Department told a surgeon who operated upon her not to mention anything to the press, lest it worsen the treatment for John McCain.[18] Businessman and POW advocate Ross Perot paid for her medical care[19] and she remained grateful to him, later saying: "The military families are in Ross's heart and in his soul ... There are millions of us who are extremely grateful to Ross Perot."
After that accident, McCain divorced her for his new heart-throb, Cindy.
Perot fed off the government teat his whole business life, so he had some ( well, little ) knowledge; just not enough.
Ike had the backing of both parties, before he was elected. The GOP took care of him, once he was elected. The Dems would have done the same, for him, should he have succumbed to their importuning.
Getting his employees out of Iran doesn't count for much, when put up against getting a Bill through Congress. Obama got what he wanted, because he left the work up to Pelosi and Reid and didn't have to lift a finger. Perot and any third/fringe party person would never have that advantage.
I am confused as to why she needed her medical treatment paid for to begin with. As a wife of active duty military her medical expenses should have been covered.
