"Beads from Around The World"
IF AT FIRST YOU DON'T SUCCEED ... In the 1988 presidential election, there were 17 "fringe" candidates who accounted for 899,638 votes, or 0.97 percent of the total popular vote. Five of those candidates have returned to run this year. Lyndon LaRouche, of the Independents for Economic Recovery Party, is conducting his 1992 campaign from a prison cell. He ran in 1988 and was imprisoned one week after George Bush was inaugurated.
