Talk:Ross Perot 1992 presidential campaign

Untitled
Throughout the article, note the "reluctant leader" theme, starting with the photo of Perot with his portrait of George Washington.--William S. Saturn (talk) 00:14, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

Unclear sentence
I don't understand this:
 * Perot's performance was deemed a success for satisfying the 5% popular vote threshold for third party candidates established by scholar Walter Dean Burnham.

I was going to list possible interpretations that sprang to mind, but there are just too many. jnestorius(talk) 18:02, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
 * How about: "Perot's performance satisfied the 5% popular vote threshold for third party candidates, classifying it as successful under the criterion established by scholar Walter Dean Burnham." ?--William S. Saturn (talk) 18:10, 12 December 2010 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure what Walter Dean Burnham means by "successful third party candidate". It's a bit of an oxymoron, like "world's tallest dwarf". Is there an article to link to that explains this conundrum? jnestorius(talk) 20:49, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

Wedding disruption threat
I thought one of the reasons Perot temporarily withdrew from the race was because he heard rumors that "Republican operatives" were going to disrupt his daughter's wedding. Is there anything to this story? Cla68 (talk) 23:09, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
 * See the "Final stages" section.--William S. Saturn (talk) 23:16, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Got it. Thanks. Cla68 (talk) 23:25, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

Good article people
Nice job.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 22:09, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Association with Donald Trump
There are many sources that discuss a Ross Perot Donald Trump comparison; sufficiently enough that it would not be a synthesis to say that Trump brought to fruition, the seed Perot planted in 1991, Namely that a candidate with no political experience could via for high office on their merits in business administration; and win. Is there objection? If instead, there is support, where might it best be placed? Thank you.--John Cline (talk) 11:46, 9 November 2016 (UTC)
