Yeah, then 1976 brought us Jimmy Carter.

Had there been no Watergate, there would have been no Carter administration. The 1976 election wasn't about embracing Carter or his policies; it was about burnout the public had with politics. They elected a political outsider...and got their money's worth for their trouble.

And in '76, even wimpy Gerald Ford, with all the Watergate baggage, put up a fight.

Had there been no Perot there never would have been a President Clinton. Clinton probably would have run and won the 1996 AR Senate seat (and maybe would today be a leading 2004 Pres candidate), but there would have been no Sen. Hillary. Vince Foster would still be alive and Chelsea would probably have a new little brother that looked a lot like Vince, ha ha ha.
