Questions

Ross Perot ran as an independent candidate for President of the United States in 1992 focusing on several key issues:

Economic Policy:

Perot's primary focus was on balancing the federal budget and reducing the national debt. He advocated for:

Economy Reforms:

Cutting government waste and inefficiency

Simplifying the tax code

Stimulating economic growth and job creation

Political Reforms

Perot positioned himself as an outsider seeking to reform Washington. His proposals included:

Implementing electronic "town hall" meetings for direct democracy

Limiting the influence of special interest groups and lobbyists

Instituting congressional term limits

Trade Policy

Perot strongly opposed the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), ("that giant sucking sound from Mexico") arguing it would lead to job losses in the United States.

Other Issues

Supported stricter gun control measures.

Favored increased research into AIDS.

Advocated for comprehensive national healthcare reform.

Initially hesitant on gay rights in 1992, but openly supportive by 1996.

Perot's campaign style was unconventional, relying heavily on television appearances and infomercials to communicate directly with voters. His populist message and outsider status resonated with many Americans, leading to a strong showing for a third-party candidate in 1992, when he received 19% of the popular vote.

UPDATE: The final results of the 2020 election vs. the 2024 election show nearly 10,000,000 voters did not vote this election. All of who went for Biden in 2020

Trumps numbers stayed relatively the same in both elections

How is this possible?
