Best Answer

George H. W. Bush was president from 1989 to 1993, and did not run for a second term in 1996, instead letting Bob Dole represent the Republicans.

Texas Governor George W. Bush Jr was reputed to be a possible candidate, but he declined to run in 1996, instead opting to run in 2000.

His main opponent was Governor Bill Clinton, though 3rd-party candidate H. Ross Perot made a surprisingly large showing. Perot garnered almost 19% of the vote, most of which was siphoned from the conservative and centrist demographic. Most analysts agree that had not Perot run, Bush would have won the election. There was speculation that personal animus between Bush and Perot, both Texans, provided the impetus for Perot's run.
