Product Description

He leapt to national attention as the brazen billionaire who led a remarkably successful third-party campaign for the presidency. Four years later, a disappointing showing proved that his moment in the sun was over, but the diminutive dynamo was unbowed. Ross Perot is one of the most captivating and least understood political figures of recent years. A self-made billionaire, his enemies say he is a power- hungry, self-serving egotist. But others tell of a generous, genuine person who believes in the patriotism and populism he preaches. BIOGRAPHY; explores Perot's life through interviews with everyone from old friends to political opponents. Gail Campbell tells how Perot purchased expensive, life-saving equipment for her husband, who was injured in a missile attack during the Gulf War. James Carville, who ran Clinton's campaign in 1992, has a distinctly different memory of the Texan. Along with these personal accounts, extensive footage illustrates the forces that have shaped Perot, and capture the pivotal events of his life. BIOGRAPHY; presents the riveting story of a billionaire businessman and maverick politician, a true American original Ross Perot.
