Aren't you forgetting Mr. Perot, in two of the last three elections?

I don't recall Perot having nearly enough votes to have been able to be
blamed for making a difference in the election.

In the most recent Presidential election, the actual number of votes cast
were actually *greater* for the loser, with the electoral college system
causing the difference in outcome. It's unusual for elections to be that
close, allowing a third party to shift the results.
