Well Ross Perot managed a decent amount of the total votes 19% of the popular vote. So Surely he took votes from one of the candidates.

What I'm asking is, what are the chances of the GOP removing Ron Paul from their party and having him run Independently? I certainly doubt he would receive 20% of the popular vote, but even 10% could influence a tight election.

And, if he ran Independently, how similar would his campaign platform be to someone like Obama?
