Right. Bill Clinton would never have won without Perot.
And because Bill Clinton won, he was able to take credit for the long term positive effects of...
Reagans pro growth economic policies
Reagans end-of-the-Cold-War peace dividend
The dot.com revolution...
So, thanks to Ross Perot, there is still a significant percent of voters who actually consider Clintons Presidency to be the gold standard - and not Ronald Reagan!
If Bush didn’t betray the base, there would have been no Perot.
It’s all Bush’s fault.
