I'm curious to see how this turns out in such a libertarian-leaning forum.

My apologies if we've had this before.

EDIT: This would be if you were 18 at the time, and equally as politically knowledgable as you are today, not if you were, like me, still barely walking.

I would have voted for Bush, but I was only 10 years old.

Now I would have voted for Bush, but me back then (if I could vote) it would be for Clinton as I didn't convert to libertarianism until 2003.

Perot, though at that time I would have voted for Barney or my parents Smiley

Then again, if I was actually given a ballot it would look like this:

hmm, ilikeverin's diagonal line for president intrigues me.
Well, I was libertarian when I was eighteen, so write in: Andre Marrou.  When it actually happened I wanted Bill Clinton to win because my mom convinced me he was a good choice.

Well, I can first vote in 2008, who I would have supported:

YEAR/PRIMARY/ELECTION

1980/Reagan/Reagan
1984/Reagan/Reagan
1988/Bush/Bush
1992/Bush/Bush
1996/Alexander/Dole
2000/McCain/Bush
2004/Bush/Bush
2008? MCCAIN, GIULIANI, OWENS?Huh

Mine is the same as him but i would have voted for Bush in 2000 for both.

Another leadership camp I guess.

It is pretty much well-known around this forum that I would have supported Perot for President had I been eligible to vote when I was 12.

I would have voted for Bush. I was 6 years old then, and I just started kindergarden 2 months before. I wish I could remember the early 90s better. Smiley

I would have voted for Clinton when I was 13, if I'd been an American. I was quite enthusiastic about him, in fact. 4 years later I was quite fed up with him, and would have voted Nader.

I've said a million times in the past Perot, so I'll hold my word.

Oddly enough, I know more about Ronald Reagan's presidency as a ten year old than about G W H Bush's as a thirteen year old. My only memory of Bush's presidency, besides the first Gulf War, was that he was defeated by an Arkansas governor.

Frankly, 1992 was an election in which I would have stayed home.
