Ross Perot is a businessman who ran as a third-party candidate in 1992 and 1996. Perot garnered around 18.9% of the popular vote to ensure George H.W. Bush's loss to President Clinton in 1992.

Obama's Passive-Aggressive Second-Term Policy Agenda: ObamaCare, Tax Hikes
Obama's Passive-Aggressive Second-Term Policy Agenda: ObamaCare, Tax Hikes - Investors.com
If you think President Obama's
first term has been bad, you haven't seen anything yet if he wins a second term. Much of the legislation that has been passed during his first term will come to fruition during his second term such as the full implementation of Obamacare in 2014. Also, if the Bush tax cuts are allowed to expire at the end of this year, then automatic tax increases will take place once the new years begins in 2013. That will not be good for an already shaky economy. Consequently, that's the agenda of the Obama administration. Everything that's taking place is for the purpose to destroy capitalism.

Former Pennsylvania Senator Arlen Specter Dies at 82
Arlen Specter, former Pa. senator, dies at 82 - Washington Times
Former Senator Arlen Specter
Former Pennsylvania Senator Arlen Specter has died at his home in Philadelphia from complications of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. He was 82. He died a week ago. He was a former liberal Republican who turned Democrat in 2009 two months after he and two other Republican Senators voted for Mr. Obama's economic stimulus package. The veteran Senator from Pennsylvania was first elected as a Republican to the Senate in 1980. Many consider him as a voice of "moderation" in the Senate, but he was liberal on many issues. He was very supportive of the U.S. Supreme Court case, Roe vs. Wade. Even though he was liberal, he did help defend Justice Clarence Thomas when he was before the U.S. Senate in 1991 to replace the retiring justice Thurgood Marshall. In 2010 Specter ran against former Pennsylvania Congressman Joe Sestak and lost to him in the primary. If Specter remained Republican, he more than likely would've lost to now Senator Pat Toomey in the GOP primary.
