Rick Perry is the longest-serving governor in Texas history, having held the office from 2000 to 2015. Perry ascended to the governorship after the election of former Texas Governor George W. Bush to the presidency. He was re-elected three times.

Perry previously ran for president in 2012, but struggled amid a crowded field — especially during a debate where he had his infamous "oops" moment. Perry, who would later drop out of the race, failed on a debate stage to name a third federal agency he would cut, before finally giving up.

A former C-130 pilot in the Air Force, Perry officially launched his second effort for the White House in June.
