I think Trump worked with Obama on the phony birth certificate issue- the whole thing looked like a script playing.
Donald may indeed pull a Perot, with the intention of electing Obama.
Remember, Perot started to run then pulled out when Clinton was doing well. Later when the polls suggested a problem with electing Clinton, Perot “had to get back in the race” and pulled enough R votes away so Billy Jeff got elected.
Trump may pull the same stunt. Anyone who runs third party on the GOP side knows exactly what the outcome will be.
Ron Paul won’t run. He’s setting up his son and getting Libertarian planks in the GOP convention imo.
I also recall daddy 'read my lips' Bush was his own worst enemy, and made the grass roots support for Perot possible.
