1992: Jerry Brown (D) vs. Ross Perot (R)

[darklordoftech]

What if these were the nominees?

Perot or Buchanan depriving Bush the nomination is one way I see Moonbeam getting elected in 1992. A sitting President being unseated through a primary is almost certainly gonna cause divisions in the party.

[Mail-order President]

George HW Bush opts not to run for re-election for personal reasons.  Perot wins the nomination as a new moderate voice in the Republican party and shows this by picking former New Jersey governor Thomas Kean.

Bill Clinton opts not to run for president.  The Democratic Party continues nominating super liberal candidates and nominate Jerry Brown.  In an attempt to capture some southern voters and moderates, he chooses Bill Clinton as his running mate.

Businessman Ross Perot (R-TX)/Former Governor Thomas Kean (R-NJ) - 320 EV 51.5%
Governor Jerry Brown (D-CA)/Governor Bill Clinton (D-AR) - 218 EV 47.7%

The more moderate Ross Perot defeats Jerry Brown in a decent margin.  Republicans now have had the White House for 4 consecutive terms and Ross Perot would most likely lose in 1996 to someone like Al Gore.

[President Johnson]

No way Perot wins this. Also no way Billy is picked for VP.

✓ Former Governor Edmund G. Brown (D-CA)/Senator Albert Arnold Gore (D-TN): 295 EV. (49.53%)
Businessman Ross Perot (R-TX)/Former Governor Thomas Kean (R-NJ): 243 EV. (44.91%)

ridiculous map. Brown would win pretty easily against Perot.

[Lechasseur]

Perot wins in a landslide and I think Brown doesn't do much (or any) better than Dukakis
