Sununu on Ross Perot’s Candidacy
In response to “We Need a President in the White House, Not a Pollster,” by John Sununu, Column Right, July 1:
Far be it for me to come to the defense of Ross Perot. I agree that he is a spoiled opportunist who lacks substantive ideas for dealing with the nation’s problems. But if Sununu had substituted the name George Bush for that of Ross Perot in his article, my head would also have been nodding in agreement. Bush has yet to demonstrate the “leadership,” which consists of “standing firm on principle and leading a nation forward through commitment.” Read my lips, George Bush has no convictions.
