I didn't even know Trump ran before 2016.
Trump's run in 2012 was short-lived, but it was Kind of a Big Deal. I would expect more people to remember it.
Man, am I glad I didn't post to the topic back when it was created.
The only thing he has going for him so far is ragging on Obama about the birther stuff. Ross Perot was an idiot, but he crafted a much better image earlier in the campaigning than Trump is capable of. I also don't think he has anywhere near the same chance to attract Conservative voters.Also remember that Perot ran while Bush I was running for his 2nd term and people were pissed about Bush going back on his word about taxes. We are not looking at the same situation at all. Trump might, just might, have a shot of out-doing Ross Perot if McCain got the nomination again.
