cleanup and update

Hey everybody who's working on this, I tried to update with some recent election quotes and results. I also did a bit of rearranging to try to put his career more in chronological order. Even as a Texan who's read about Patterson in the news before, I had trouble following the article at points. I'm still learning the proper style, though, so if I've blundered, please just let me know and I can try to undo my errors? Thanks! GreatBalfoursGhost (talk) 17:19, 30 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Vietnam service

Although Patterson served in the army during the Vietnam War era, no reliable sources found as of yet state that he actually served in Vietnam during the war. Accordingly, Category:American military personnel of the Vietnam War was removed from the article. Semper Fi! FieldMarine (talk) 03:03, 15 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
