“Everybody thought Ross Perot was trying to win. As a matter of fact he got close to winning. Now all of the sudden he went crazy and kind of backed out and got back in. What people didn’t know is that he was put in as a ringer. Hillary was leading the charge for the health care program and Ross Perot had the computer contract, his company, for the health care program. Fortunately it didn’t get passed.” -- Larry Nichols

I don't think Trump is but Gary Johnson is either a paid Clinton ringer or the dumbest man alive.

Is it possible you are too willing to believe conspiracy theories (speaking in general)?

Who says it was a conspiracy theory?

MG,

Everything he says now e.g. about the country being taken advantage of is the same thing he said decades ago on interview you can find on you tube.

The burden of proof is on you since you are making the outlandish accusation.

What's outlandish about it? Larry Nichols was an insider, so he would know. Do you think Nixon's inside right-hand man made an "outlandish accusation" when he acknowledged implementing the so-called Drug War was all about destroying communities of color? Look at Republicans who still support the Drug War along party lines and still stupidly think it is, was and always will be about the drugs. Who are the real dumb fuckin' idiots here?

now that is some first level skepticism... but no matter how much i hope it ain't true.. i am convinced that true or not, if you cant be that skeptical about the level of corruption, cronyism, and collusion among the major players in The Powers That Be .... you are being deluded...

that being said there is not much (more likely nothing) we can do about it, so concentrating on the areas of your own life where you have actual influence is more beneficial than getting bent out of shape by it....

If you change your mind, I have the poll set so you can revote and change your previous answer.

still a pretty firm maybe, i don't buy the idea that he is a real outsider, i also have a hard time buying that anybody but the Clinton and their close flunkies care which insider or which party is pretending to rule...

I'm in the maybe camp too. My gut is uneasy with all of the inconsistencies, cronyism and favoritism with the Democratic elite. The thing is, what does Trump get out of Slick Hilly winning? He doesn't have Perot's Electronic Data System empire that would get many billions of dollars for a health care takeover. Trump's in the hospitality business as far as I can tell and he's not very good at it either. If It wasn't for The Apprentice, he'd just be another indebted and broke braggadacio footnote.

What people think about Trump being "consistent" for decades is actually his liberal positions and not the conservative. That proves even more that he might be a ringer.
