Ross Perot may christen Peoria airport name change

Peoria airport officials are looking to rename the airport after native son, four-star Gen. Wayne A. Downing. If it happens, former presidential candidate (and Downing friend) Ross Perot may come to the dedication.

I was going to make a Perot joke here, but it doesn’t seem appropriate since they’re honoring a deceased military veteran with such a distinguished career. I’ll just say that thinking back at the 1992 presidential election makes me feel old.
