I voted for Buchanan in 2000. But I must say that I now think, after the fact, that he was carrying out a mission he had been assigned (by the Powers That Be) to destroy the Reform Party. His campaign was too excruciatingly bad, and the destruction of the Reform Party too complete, for me to be able to believe that it was just incompetence and bad luck.
I was also shocked by how Buchanan was able to support Bush in 2004, after all the bad things he said about the Iraq war.

I think there would have been some interest in having Buchanan show up again if he hadn't folded in prior campaigns. I supported his campaign in 1996 and still support the ideas conveyed. I was one that showed up at a San Diego fund raiser pitch-fork in hand. (Got threatened by a SS agent).
The night that Buchanan lost the AZ primary he was leading by a fair margin at 11:00 PM and ended up losing by that much a little while later.
It appeared that the fix was in. After AZ, Pat barely made a blip on the political radar screen.

Google Pauken and the "phone call." Buchanan expected a lot of support from Perot, who regrettably went all out to pull the rug from under Buchanan, who then had to put a lot of his energies into dealing with a hostile party that he'd been promised on a platter. The article by Pauken explains the rumors about why this was.
I believe that Buchanan's overwhelming ambition is to end abortion; Bush gave him what Kerry wouldn't.
