Who was the saxophone-playing candidate who won against the incumbent when Ross Perot ran as a third-party candidate?

Answer Bill Clinton

Typically incumbents face little opposition, but Bush Sr. faced an early Republican challenger, Pat Buchanan. To make matters more difficult, Ross Perot jumped in the race attempting to garner votes from both major parties. He dropped out of the race on the eve of the Democratic convention, only to rejoin in September and siphon 19 percent of the popular vote.
