where the hell is 2004 perot?
what's wrong? we have a giant deficit. we have a war in iraq that most paleoconservatives don't support at all (pat buchanan, pat robertson, etc.) why isn't there a celebrity candidate to take their votes?

and no, they are not going to vote for a socialist like nader, that's the stupidest thing i've ever heard

1. There are a few out there, but none as big as Perot, who
my father suspects went loony a few years ago and is being sat on by his family.

3. Perot showed his true colors by endorsing Shrub in 2000
Not many remember his late in the campaign appearance on LKL in which he trashed Gore's military service (ignored AWOL's sketchy military service) ans endorsed Bush. This was a man who campaigned on the defecit and he trashed the administration that tamed the defecit beast and turned it to surplus. What a phony. It would seem to me that he would HATE what this administration is doing not only with the budget defecit but with the obvious mistreatment of the military. Perot fancies himself a big supporter of "the troops". I would guess that he's not very happy with the way they are being mis-used.

I think he will be heard from before it's all over.

4. I wished Pat Buchanan would run.
Not that I am a big fan of his but I would want him to run because he could take votes away from the Chimp.

5. They exist, but they do not betray the 'tribe'
Sorry, we're gonna have to win this one the old fashioned way.
