Independent candidate Ross Perot chose retired Vice Admiral James Stockdale as his running mate in 1992.

This article lists running mates considered by Ross Perot during his 1992 independent candidacy for President of the United States. On March 30, 1992, Perot announced that retired Vice Admiral James Stockdale would serve as his "interim" running mate, so that Perot could qualify for the ballot in several states.[1][2] At the time, Perot planned to pick a permanent running mate during the summer, around the time of the 1992 Democratic National Convention and the 1992 Republican National Convention.[2] Perot suspended his campaign during the summer of 1992, possibly preventing him from choosing a different running mate.[3] After he decided to run again, Perot decided to keep Stockdale as his running mate.[4] John Silber, the president of Boston University, was also rumored as a potential running mate for Perot.[5] Stockdale appeared at the 1992 vice presidential debate. The Perot–Stockdale ticket took 18.9% of the popular vote, but the ClintonGore ticket won the election.
