What about in Sandy Springs, Georgia where they privatized everything but firemen and law enforcement, and were able to cut city expenditures by 50% while improving the quality of services offered? @Khan - Why would such a person be unelectable? You mention Ross Perot - You know had he not dropped out of the race, he would have likely won, as he was handily beating both Bill Clinton and George Bush in polls, right? |
Nationwide or state-by-state? National polling in a three-candidate election is counterintuitive to the electoral college system, straight popularity is not the best determinant
Unelectibility in this case comes from the fact that he couldn't make it in either major party, and both would conspire to crush him from outside the system, and again the electoral college would defeat him, as unless he won an outright majority the vote would go to the Congress, dominated by the big two, who could make that conspiracy against him all the more potent
