What little I recall of what he said and did seems night and day from the tone of current politicians.
I love the statement "Ask Not What Your Country Can Do For You But What You Can Do For Your Country"
It seems to me he handled the Bay of Pigs situation pretty well by allowing the Russians to save face (I'm sure I'll creamed for this take by someone more informed)
and he and his brother seemed to be on the right side of the civil rights issues
bottom line is from what little I've seen of the way he (& other politicians) spoke in that era is refreshing compared to the nonsense that occurs today
PS...my favorite thing Perot did was when he gave the presentation about social security and explained how if you and I did what they government did, we'd all be in jail
