republicans nominate well respected moderate former missouri senator john danforth. although a moderate, the 60 year old danforth is also an ordained minister, which makes him acceptable to the religious right.
danforth selects that straight talking wyoming senator, alan simpson as his running mate.
the texas maverick, ross perot opts out of the race after the republicans nominate the danforth/simpson ticket. calling them 'quality public servants', perot endorses the ticket.
the democrats of course renominate the clinton/gore ticket.
jesse jackson, never a fan of a clinton or his 'third way' politics, opts to run as a third party candidate. he selects former atlanta mayor, maynard jackson as his running mate.
how would this race shape up?
clinton/gore (d)
danforth/simpson (r)
jackson/jackson (rainbow coalition)
