Think carefully.

Remember ... if Bush wins, then Dubya doesn't feel the need to avenge his father and go into politics to become President later.  No Clinton means no Clinton backlash and no Republican revolution in 1994.

So ... how would you have voted?

I would have voted for Bush Senior who, unlike his son, was not a bad president.

Perot, like IRL at that time (though I couldn't vote).

More than likely yes. However I would have selected Perot for a change in momentum.

Bush was the only responsible option of the three then or now.

I would stay home, just as I did in 92...though Clinton with a Republican congress was a good combination for fiscal policy.

Bush41 simply had no idea what he wanted to do with the country.  He was adrift domestically.

Thankfully, Perot wasn't elected.

Obviously, I would vote for Mr. William Jefferson Clinton (D) of Arkansas.

I thought it was "The Honorable William Jefferson Clinton of Arkansas", or did he have to drop the title of "Honorable" after being disbarred?

Perot/Stockdale. I cannot recall if I vote for Perot or Marrou but if I didn't vote for him in retrospect I would.

Edit: BTW, Perot ran as an independent in '92 NOT on the Reform Party ticket. The Reform Party run was in '96.

It's actually Wiliam Jefferson Blythe Clinton.
