ROSS PEROT: DEAD AT 89, RIP.
ICHEOKU says he was a billionaire politician and founder of the Reform Party, the first maverick to go up against the two political party establishment, running for president first as an independent in 1992 and later as a third party candidate in 1996. But where he failed, another billionaire politician, Donald John Trump, succeeded twenty years later, by using one of the political party as his platform, unlike Ross who wanted nothing to do with either party.
Ross Perot was indeed an American icon, who founded EDS and once quipped: "Born in Texas, bred in Texas and when I die, it shall also read dead in Texas." He loved his State of Texas so much and unapologetically too. He also loved life and he lived it fully well, with great passion for dancing. Ross Perot died of old age infirmities and complications of leukemia; he was 89 years old. May his soul now rest. Adieu Perot.
