Spoiler candidate when not voting for one of thr two preferred oligarchs is kind of a degrading term. Perot didn’t spoil the Bush campaign- and the Libertarian party, that gets more votes than the Green, draws mostly from “would-be Republicans”
Lol yes he did. While votes for him came from both parties, the damage came from him pounding Bush on “No New Taxes,” which did cost Bush substantial numbers of voters - voters who often switched to supporting Clinton.
A 1999 study in the American Journal of Political Science estimated that Perot’s candidacy hurt the Clinton campaign, reducing “Clinton’s margin of victory over Bush by seven percentage points.”[117] In 2016, FiveThirtyEight described the speculation that Perot was a spoiler as “unlikely”
You’re talking like I’m not actually a fan of Biden. I am. The problem with West is his ticket is literally being paid for by the right. So yes, in this case, he is very much a spoiler candidate.

did you even read your own link??
And yet what everyone remembers is “No New Taxes” which is why an incumbent should never be in a debate
to be clear, you proved yourself wrong and are still insisting you were right by shifting the goalposts.
Not remotely, as my quote clearly indicates
anyone can read the context of this thread and see you are lying now
The Bush campaign put forward a worse candidate and lost. It was a more competitive and better election cycle.
Bush was an incumbent President lol
So was Carter, and Ford, and Trump
Well, in all fairness, literally no one voted for Ford.

No I’m criticizing calling people who vote for the candidate they support a “spoiler”
You weren’t called a spoiler. The candidate is a spoiler candidate.
Equally a candidate advocating what they believe is called a spoiler
the irony of you choosing “ender wiggin” as a moniker. i just hope you wake up before you pull the trigger on a genocide.

Shhhh, you have to buy into the if you don’t vote the way I vote your the problem narrative both sides live off of.
