And this is why people who support third parties should do their research on Ross Perot. We have a two-party system as far as general elections. Ross Perot was probably the most successful of any third-party candidate we have ever had, he got 19% of the popular vote, and yet he didn't get a SINGLE electoral vote.. Anyone who wants their vote to count, I would suggest not voting third party lol

It's insane how conservative democrats were in the 90s. Most were against gay marriage but some were in favor of "same-sex unions", against gays in the military (Clinton's compromise was "don't ask/don't tell), against against healthcare, anti-welfare, for limit immigration etc. They weren't different from today's moderate republicans. If you look at Trump's vs. Bill Clinton's policies in office, Trump was actually slightly more liberal. Trump was more of an isolationist and less in favor of free trade. He set tariffs to encourage more manufacturing in the US. Clinton was in favor of NAFTA, which lowered barriers for trade between the US, Mexico, and Canada. Trump was against it. Trump was a democrat in the 90s and hasn't changed much politically since then.

​@@hnys7976 The 90s were a fire sale as vulture capitalists like Bain Capital ripped out the guts of America and sold them for cheap. Sen. Mitt Romney’s (R-UT) investment firm Bain Capital profited billions between 1992 and 1997 by collecting huge dividends for investors that eventually resulted in layoffs for thousands of American workers. In 1984, Romney helped co-found Bain Capitol, which made a series of investments in small and medium-sized American companies, only to turn a profit for investors and leave American workers without a job. Most prominent are five companies that Romney’s Bain Capital invested in, reaping a profit for himself and investors, and then left to bankruptcy, layoffs, and closure. AOL Finance reported in 2012 on the financial devastation that Romney’s Bain Capital put American workers through. In 1992, Romney’s Bain Capital invested $5 million in American Pad & Paper and walked away with $100 million in dividends. Nearly 400 American workers in Marion, Indiana, were laid off in the process, and in 2000, the small company filed for bankruptcy. “I really feel he didn’t care about the workers. It was all about profit before people,” a former worker at the plant, Randy Johnson, told People’s World in 2012. Johnson said of the layoffs which began in the mid-1990s after AMPAD, acquired by Romney’s Bain Capital, bought the paper company: They quickly fired every single employee. They walked the fired workers out of the building. Handing them applications as they left, telling the workers if they wanted to work for the new company, they were welcome to apply. Similarly, Romney’s Bain Capital made an investment in Dade Behring, a manufacturing company that provided supplies for the medical diagnostics industry, of about $415 million in 1994. Romney secured $1.78 billion in dividends for investors while the company filed for bankruptcy and laid off 2,000 American workers in Deerfield, Illinois; Glasgow, Delaware; Westwood, Massachusetts; Miami, Florida; and Puerto Rico. A number of former Dade Behring employees recalled to the New York Times how their lives were upended when their employers were acquired by Dade at the behest of Romney’s Bain Capital: Cost-cutting became a mantra inside the company. After his employer, DuPont, was bought by Dade, William T. Mowrey, a field engineer, said his generous pension plan was replaced by a 401(k); his salary was cut by $1 an hour, costing him $2,000 a year in income. When he filed for overtime, he said, his new bosses refused to pay it. “They were just trying to milk as much out of us as they could,” he said. [Emphasis added] Mr. Mowrey, now 54, quit. Many workers, like Mr. Shoemaker, the Dade employee in Westwood, and his wife, a temporary employee at the same plant, did not leave on their own terms. When they lost their jobs in 1997, they had to abandon plans to buy their first home together. “It created a lot of stress,” said Mr. Shoemaker, 59, who had earned more than $80,000 a year. [Emphasis added] Romney’s Bain Capital also invested $47 million in the DDI Corporation in 1997 and profited nearly $90 million before the company filed for bankruptcy and laid off 2,100 American workers. In another case, Romney’s Bain Capital invested $60 million in GS International in 1993, securing $65 million in profits before the company went bankrupt in 2002 and laid off 750 American workers. One of Romney’s most destructive investments for American workers came when Bain Capital purchased Stage Stores in the late 1980s with a $5 million investment before taking the company public in 1996. In 2000, after Romney’s Bain Capital profited at least $184 million, Stage Stores went bankrupt and close to 6,000 American workers were laid off with more than 300 store locations closing. Almost all of Stage Stores closed in Indiana, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and some 50 stores closed across Texas. Only after new management took over Stage Stores, long after Romney’s Bain Capital’s involvement, did the retail company begin growing again. Neo-liberal punks whistle while they walk past the graveyard that is America, and pretend to not see that the Democrat and Republican establishment are working together to destroy the American middle class.

I've been using the corn as an example for awhile now. kind of pales next to the drug cartel problem, but then again, most people eat, so it's an easy topic to relate to. The street vendors in Tijuana used to make the best street tacos before NAFTA. They're still delicious, except a couple things: one, the price is pretty high now. They used to be legendary in part because they were so cheap. One reason the price is higher is they have to buy tortillas, and that's the main topic I like to bring up. The way these trade deals go down is on the heads of the poor. Mexico was forced to buy imported corn because, as you said, the US taxpayer was buoying the competition, and with the trade deal in place their hands were tied. So the tacos, while they're still good, are no longer legendary. No more heirloom corn patted into tortillas on a nice hot comal next to the taco stand. Now tortillas come from bags. The Japanese are in the same boat with their rice -- another perhaps thousands-year-old tradition down the drain. The controllers are making their final push for total control. Things are happening fast including the latest from the CDC: indefinite detention of anybody for any length of time and forced medical treatments including vaccinations for their prisoners. There's too much. Even a list would be too long.

This was one great individual. I was in my mid 20's and a proud Texan when he ran for president and knew so many people that worked for EDS and Perot Systems and they really appreciated the way he ran the company. We should have taken his warnings. I saw him at Presbyterian hospital in the parking lot in Dallas a few years ago and he helped me back, by hand waving me, my truck(big farm truck) in the small spaces of the hospital. He then got into his several year old Caprice Classic, or something of that make/model and drove off. Cool experience for sure! To think that at that time we were only 4 trillion in debt. Sigh

this is fundamentally incorrect. the assertion you are making is that Mexicans are now, or were, in $40/hr. jobs. this never happened. therefore, the jobs weren't lost to Mexico. instead consider this way of seeing it - they were lost to the international conglomerates that had been destroying labor regulations and environmental protections to make good jobs in to poverty wages. then they tell the ameican public if they want decent jobs back they better learn to play ball, which is of course a false argument because all that will happen it that you'll be working at poverty wages as a slave in an environment where you food causes illness and your water is poisoned.

I admit that I was 100% wrong about Perot. I plead insanity because I was young in the early 90's, had not lived life long enough to learn how the world worked beyond text books and professors. In 1993, in California, we had homeless people, but we didn't have tent cities and people living in cars and RV's in large numbers like we do today. Back then, a worker could make a living as a checker in grocery store, buy a home and support a family. You could drive a box truck and make a middle class living. Now both those jobs pay minimum wage or a few dollars above it. Crazy.

You know, this debate established Gore's reputation as the "greatest debater in American politics." In hindsight, that assessment was overrated. He didn't know his points better than Perot, he just knew how to get him off his game. His debate with Jack Kemp was an unfair fight because Kemp was not a good debater. But when he faced off against Bush, he completely lost his game - he tried to play the more knowledgeable candidate, forgot his game was to play his opponent's weakness. And Bush was actually a very good debater, probably better than Perot. He took down the renown Ann Richards and won the election for Texas governor.

I agree that popular opinion swung in favor of NAFTA, which turned out to be policy that both parties regretted after that fact...but that is a separate topic. Most incorrect is the statement that Gore in any way, shape, or form, established himself as a great debater. He instead established himself is as a man of rhetoric and falsification of facts.

@@jamiengo2343 It was so dominant we were back there under false pretenses a decade later, thus leading to thousands of deaths and tens of thousands of young men and women coming home with visible and mental damage, not to mention the further emboldening of an enemy (and expansion of the battlefield) against which we still don’t fully understand.

I had no use for Al Gore after this. First of all, a vice President challenging a private citizen to a debate bothered me enough but this "debate" was Perot coming to explain why he was against NAFTA and Gore being a jerk interrupting him, slandering him, and that Smoot Hawley picture was not necessary.

Perot was spot on. What did main stream media do to him? Labeled him a crack pot. Sounds familiar to what they are doing right now to Trump. Time to put a self made business man in there.

What? Oh, bullshit. You can literally watch Trump being a slimeball for the 30 years on youtube. Perot had principles. Trump and Clinton are both sociopathic douchebags that care for only themselves.

@Councilman Les Wynan As a former scumbag car salesman I can say it's because a cheaper made Chevy with more options can be bought for less money than a Honda. Or many folks are just brand loyal because they grew up with good memories of riding in moms or grandpa's Chevrolet.
