Having to listen to him compare every thing to a chicken may have driven me mad. I think he was a good guy and what he tried to do for the MIA's in Vietnam.. but I hated his chicken analogies..lol

"Ross Perot. Just what a nation of idiots needs; a short loud idiot." -George Carlin.

Harsh, but funny. Hehehe.

I think that the best thing that Perot ever did was to show that a Third Party candidate can actually get a serious number of the popular vote.
This means that the two-party sytsem we have now, is fundamentally wrong.

More importantly, his 18% decided the election. Which shows that third party votes aren't throw aways.

No, they arent.

But speaking as someone who voted third party, last time...

I dont intend to make the same mistake this time around.
The potential result is simply to costly.
