              even ross perot with all his money couldnt risk the death threats towards his family from the bush scum. he basically threw in the towel and still got 20 million votes and 19% of the electorate and gave the election to clinton. before he dropped out it was a 3 way tie. clinton gave a great speech at the convention and i ended up voting for him. i was a strong supporter of pat buchanan but he fizzed in new hampshire

                                    89 is a long life.. I'd say he was lucky to live that long.. Almost made 90.. That a good long life.. Next.. Can't live forever...

                                      A couple different ways to look at this.

                                      Yes, Perot cost Bush the election which led to BJ Clinton. That part is obvious.

                                      If Bush wins, I doubt BJ, G W Bush, or Obama get elected. And Hillary is never even an afterthought.

                                      Without that trio +1, America would not have been on the precipice of disaster and we would not have been able to elect President Donald J Trump.

                                          If Bush 41 got a 2nd term you're right, you'd never see W or Barack or have heard from Hillary. You'd see more centrist Democrats like Bill Bradley have national prominence in later elections and likely a more unified Supreme Court w Souter type justices

                                            Very smart businessman. Donated land for the Airport, but owned the land all around it. So when the airport was built he developed everything around it and made billions.

                                            HW Bush was stupid enough to make Perot an enemy. Cost Bush the election and handed the Clintons the Presidency for eight years.

                                                    Important lesson we should teach the younger generations, that a third party candidate that split voters allowed what turned out to be the worst President in our lifetime.
