Some of you may remember the presidential campaign of this self-made BILLIONAIRE Texan. He was a real threat to Bush & Clinton and garnered about 20% of the popular vote in the 1992 election.
He set himself apart as a reformer and pushed his popular flat tax.
Today, we find ourselves in a different place. The Economy's in the toilet and both parties have given us a "clear choice" of Coke vs Pepsi. Or maybe that's McDonald's vs Burger King, you get the idea.
If there was a serious 3rd party contender for the top leadership position of our country, could he WIN in today's climate?
Democrats deny any responsibility for fiscal issues, either blaming Bush or kicking the can down the road on the issues.
Republicans have put forth a weak ticket against a floundering yet popular incumbent president Obama. They also fail to communicate a REAL plan of reform and REAL change.
Here in the real world, folks who lost their businesses, their jobs, their homes and their retirement savings, do NOT trust either party, congress or the government at all. In the words of Jon Huntsman, "there is a trust deficit" in America.
So what do you think?

+9The system is so corrupt that Perot would be just like Johnson or Paul having absolutely no chance to ever get elected. If you want proof just think back to the 2008 election when McCain who was broke and ready to toss in the towel all of a sudden became the man to run against Obama. How did that happen? Money, someone bought themselves a loser to create a winner. The deck is stacked against the people because we do not have FREE elections in this country, the NWO plans who will run and who will lose. What needs to be done is to obliterate the present political makeup and start over or just stand by and watch as they pick their people to win. Either way, the NWO would have had what they wanted, progressive McCain or progressive Obama it didn't matter. Two of the same. That's why I laugh at this 99 percenters, it's a scam, smoke and mirrors and both sides just sit around and point fingers at each other. The NWO has us by the nads.
But that's a great suggestion, Blue.
Years later, what people may not know is, he set up California's electric system grid and policies. He then sold to people information on how they could financially exploit it, make money off it. One group he sold to was Enron and they were the best at abusing it. They made lots of money while CA was having blackouts.
So what does Clinton do, NAFTA, repeal of Glass Steagal, technology and manufacturing transfer to China, service industry transfer to India, a trail of murders, suisides and plane crashes, Waco, OKC, one ecomonic bubble after another, DOT Com, Freddy and Fanny. After him the baton is handed to Jr. Gore added some spice but went home when he got the environment cash gig. Then there was Jr's romp (he invaded Iraq because Saudi told him to). He didn't fix Fanny or Freddy or re-enstate Glass Steagal. The entire economy consisted of the housing bubble, housing starts not based on economic output but on speculation - double your money in a month. At the end he staged the false flag of economic collapse to guarantee the 0's dictatorial reign.
In conclusion, had Perot been elected we would have a different c...

In conclusion, had Perot been elected we would have a different country, a much better country, based on sound economic principles and no derivatives Armageddons on the horizon. People didn't like him because he didn't have the "LOOK" and had a squeaky voice, maybe a fermone reaction. People vote like cattle in a breading pen.
Maybe I would vote for Perot now if I could, hell I can, I'll write him in
We, Americans, are not ideologically driven - the people who study this sort of thing, tell us that only about 6% on left are ideological and only about 6% of the right are. Americans hover around center with a lean to the right - we do not like extremes and we tend to reject the people screaming ideological messages and have been doing just that for years and years. That is why we tend to be two big parties and I expect we will remain that way unless we become more ideological.
Perot made a fair showing to be sure but after that, no real third party emerged - his personality drew in the folks apparently and ended when he lost. The people may not be thrilled with the two parties but they have even less trust in folks who they 1. do not know; 2. talk in phony baloney rhetoric, 3. lack records of success, 4. have unpleasant or weird followers (can you see yourself voting for the OWS candidate) - just the way we are, one day maybe we will change
