	How could he have dropped out when he never officially entered?
	Anyway Perot has said all along that the political campaigns
	last way too long and he saw himself getting pulled into a long
	drawn out campaign that he didn't want, by people he didn't like
	(Ed Rollins and his group of professional handlers).

	If you don't have a problem with Perot's ideas then you must
	have a problem with Bush and Clinton's.

	Boy this is really relavent.  If he has such a big ego why is he
	even messing with running for the president.

	Well he sure knows how the system really works then.  Who better
	to reform the system to be fair to all.

	Enough of this crud!  If you do not like the expression "you
	people" the tell me what expression he should have used and I
	will tell you why that would not be politically correct either.

	What does this have to do with anything?  LBJ was this type

	When and where did he say this.  What was the context.  Did you
	actually hear him say this or are you repeating something that
	you were told that he said.  Another thought strikes me,  could
	this have even been the Texas constitution that he was talking
	about?  Again context tells all.

	What is the context of this rule?  Could it be that if the
	company pays $2,000 to relocate an employee and that employee
	quits within a year or somesuch time period that the employee is
	liable for reembursing the company the cost of the relocation. 

	Give me facts.  Not fiction.

	Yes please do it is fun to see what kind of crap people think is
	relavent.
