I voted for Perot in 1992 mostly in the hope that he would garner enough electoral votes so as to scare the living s##t out of the people in Washington so that they would seriously consider dumping the Electoral College. Now I have to admit that I did read his book, 'United We Stand, How We Can Take Back Our Country', just before the election and I found it very interesting, if not somewhat compelling. In fact, after reading it on a cross-country flight (it was only 134 pages long) I gave it to the guy sitting next to me on the plane and told him to read it as well.

Disclaimer: At the time I was working for EDS, the company that Perot had founded, and while he was no longer associated with the company when I first joined EDS (fall of 1991), his views and the culture that he had instilled in the company was still very evident and to the older EDS people, he was still looked-up to and was very much admired.
