1. Perot was sort of a hick, and a pompous one at that. Despite being from Texas, Ron Paul isn't really a hick, or pompous, that I can tell.
<br>
<br>2. Perot was a billionaire busineessman. Before politics, Paul was a OB/GYN. Other than maybe Mike Huckabee, Paul is probably the least wealthy of all the "major" candidates. Perot would probably be the wealthiest if he were in this election.
<br>
<br>3. Perot's positions weren't nearly as "outside the box" as Paul's. For instance, Perot probably wouldn't have supported legalizing marijuana (along with a host of other substances) at the federal level and ending the "war on drugs". Paul does.
