I think Ross Perot with his own money obviously was able to climb out of nowhere to get 18% in the general. The two party duopoly ganged up on him and the Reform Party (as he was opposed to their globalization) and quashed any opportunity for him to succeed. These parties don’t shoot themselves in the foot, they adapt to and coöpt any threat.
