9412152 Rapoport The popular movement and candidacy of H. Ross Perot added an historic dimension to the 1992 presidential election. By winning 19 percent of the popular vote, Mr. Perot outdistanced all independent candidates in the 20th century except Theodore Roosevelt, who ran as a popular ex-president in 1912. Perot;s success in mobilizing thousands of activists and attracting millions of votes raised questions about the health of the American two-party system, and whether he would be able to transform his movement into an enduring third party. The most important and enduring legacy of the Perot movement will likely be manifest through the cadre of activists mobilized by his campaign. The Perot movement will change the parties whether Mr. Perot runs again for president in 1996, and whether he is able to convert his movement into a third party. The purpose of this investigation is to monitor active participants in the 1992 Perot campaign as they encounter the 1994 congressional elections and the 1996 presidential election. By studying changes in their attitudes, perceptions, and behavior, and by comparing them with samples of activists in the two major parties, the investigators will be able to track the Perot movement and its impact on the two party system.

小行星9412152 H.罗斯·佩罗为1992年的总统选举增添了历史性的一面。佩罗赢得了19%的普选票，超过了世纪除西奥多·罗斯福（Theodore Roosevelt）以外的所有独立候选人。 佩罗;奥巴马成功地动员了数千名活动家，吸引了数百万张选票，这引发了人们对美国两党制健康状况的质疑，以及他是否能够将他的运动转变为一个持久的第三党。 佩罗运动最重要、最持久的遗产可能会通过他的竞选活动动员起来的活动家骨干体现出来。 无论佩罗先生是否在1996年再次竞选总统，也无论他是否能够将他的运动转变为第三党，佩罗运动都将改变政党。 这项调查的目的是监测积极参与1992年佩罗竞选，因为他们遇到了1994年国会选举和1996年总统选举。 通过研究他们的态度、观念和行为的变化，并将其与两大政党的积极分子样本进行比较，调查人员将能够追踪佩罗运动及其对两党制度的影响。
