1. Ross Perot -- Pat Buchanan
   Ross Perot, the towering midget of American politics, can't be summed up in a sound bite. He's one of the most complex, colorful, crafty figures on the American stage today. He has made billions of dollars as a pioneer in data processing and real estate but has lost millions in naive and ill-fated business ventures. He's a savvy and skillful business operator, yet a new book by Gerald L. Posner cites former colleagues who describe Perot as ``squirrelly'' and ``paranoid.'' Perot, in turn, defiantly tweaks his critics by dancing in public to Patsy Cline's famous rendition of Crazy.
2. Iowa -- New Hampshire
   Rockwell Collins, based in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, will produce navigation and communication avionics for the KC-767 Advanced Tanker. In addition to Rockwell Collins, Iowa industry will provide electrical systems and raw materials for the new tanker if Boeing is selected for the contract.
3. Roger Milliken -- New York
   Roger Milliken was born October 24, 1915, in New York, the son of Gerrish and Agnes Gayley Milliken. He graduated from Groton School in 1933 and received a bachelor of arts degree from Yale University in 1937.
4. Warren Beatty -- New York
   Warren Beatty himself was to become presidential timber during the summer of 1999. After it became clear that the only two contenders for the Democratic Party's nomination were to be Vice President Al Gore and former Senator Bill Bradley of New Jersey, Beatty made it generally known that he was dissatisfied with the two choices and began to drop hints that he might be willing to seek the nomination himself. After meeting with several powerful liberal activists and influential Democratic operatives, including pollster Pat Caddell, who had worked previously for Hart, McGovern, and President Jimmy Carter, and adman Bill Hillsman, who had worked on the campaigns of Senator Paul Wellstone and Governor Jesse Ventura, Beatty announced in September of 1999 that he would not seek the nomination. However, he continued to be courted by members of a different political party, the Reform Party, who were looking for an alternative to Pat Buchanan, a conservative who had switched parties after losing the Republican Party's presidential nomination for the third time in a row. Despite frequent entreaties by Governor Ventura, real-estate magnate Donald Trump, and syndicated columnist Arianna Huffington, Beatty refused to enter the race and Buchanan eventually won the Reform Party's nomination. Later in the campaign, Beatty announced that he was endorsing Ralph Nader for president.
5. White Supremacy
   Her theory is predicated on the work of Neely Fuller (1969), who states that "White Supremacy" is a global system of domination against people of color. This system attacks people of color, particularly people of African descent, in the nine major areas of people activity which are:
6. Deep Throat
   Damiano, who was cut out of Deep Throat's profits by his mob partners, was left dreaming of a Hollywood-porn merger that never happened. Still, Lovelace had her 15 minutes of fame as a magazine cover girl and the star of more softcore movies, including Linda Lovelace for President. Later she would join the anti-porn feminists and maintain that she'd been hypnotized by her husband. In a Kafkaesque turn of events, Reems was the fall guy—facing prison, he became a Hollywood cause célèbre. Inside Deep Throat includes footage of him partying with Jack and Warren and debating Roy Cohn on TV.

8. U.S. Presidential Election -- Papa Bush
   Every U.S. presidential election campaign is an amalgam of issues, images and personality; and despite the intense focus on the country's economic future, the 1992 contest was no exception. The Bush reelection effort was built around a set of ideas traditionally used by incumbents: experience and trust. It was in some ways a battle of generations. George H. W. Bush, 68, the last president to have served in World War II, faced a young challenger in Bill Clinton who, at age 46, had never served in the military and had participated in protests against the Vietnam War. In emphasizing his experience as president and commander-in-chief, Bush ... drew attention to what he characterized as Clinton's lack of judgment and character.
9. Ross Perot -- Reform Party
   KWAME HOLMAN: A month ago, Ross Perot accepted the presidential nomination of the political party he founded and primarily funds. The Reform Party endorsed Perot at its convention in Valley Forge, Pennsylvania, after a nominal challenge from another candidate. The Reform Party has organized nationally and now is on the
10. Ross Perot -- H. Ross Perot
    Ross Perot put up the majority of the venture capital for Steve Jobs's NeXT computer project in 1986. Also in 1986, after heavy criticism of General Motors, which had purchased EDS, he was bought out for $700 million. In 1988, he founded Perot Systems Corporation, Inc. in Plano, Texas. His son, H. Ross Perot, Jr., eventually succeeded him as CEO. Today, H. Ross Sr. serves as Chairman Emeritus, and Ross Jr. serves as Chairman.
