@SenatorZero I use him in my Yale seminar as a model for the cruelty of presidential politics. He had only agreed to be Perot's 1992 VP as a stand-in with the promise that he would be replaced by a political figure. It never happened -- and Stockdale was sent into the VP debate unprepared. — PolitiTweet.org
