Quote: Jesse "The Body" Ventura, could be announcing a run for President of the United States. The insinuation was made during promos for Ventura's upcoming appearance on Tuesday night's Larry King Live. That promo states that Ventura is furious over what is currently transpiring and could jump into the race.

Then again, he may just be coming on to promote his new book: "Don't Start the Revolution Without Me" Link Where is your doom-O-meter set at now?

I wanna see it painted, painted black
Black as night, black as coal
I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black
Yeah!

Jesse says 911 was an inside job

Jesse'd be a better choice than any of the Business-As-Usual Crowd that we're currently offered. He's not a career politician (+10 right there), he's not beholden to the corporates, he is openly contemptuous of the press and the way they spin things and minimize or ignore the genuinely important issues, and he called them on the carpet more than once for their distortions during his stint as Minnesota governor (ok, so that'll kill his coverage), and he's actually a highly intelligent and articulate speaker who understands issues and would like to see real change.

Of course as I recall, he resigned the governorship because of his disgust with the entrenched politburo and it's refusal to actually consider many of his proposed reforms, so I doubt he'd accomplish much as prez (assuming he'd survive).

Any of you remember way back when he was in office he did an interview for Playboy? I read it. Don't remember much but I remember that I like what he said.

For example, something like, "I ain't gay but that's not the issue. My job is to protect everyone and to see that everyone gets the same protection under the law. So leave gays alone."

Plain speaking. Clear thoughts. We could do worse. Come to think of it - we HAVE worse.

I've read that link, and I like the guy. He's all for railways and public transit. He has a much more sensible take on the War on Drugs. He's clearly anti-federalist and wants to leave more up to local communties.

We could do much much worse.

Prez Jessie,

I like it.

I'm in.

[vision-master]

He had my vote.

I have to admit...the guy stood his ground as far as NOT building new football & baseball staduims...

However, his comment about wanting to be reincarnated & come back as a double D bra was...well...I guess I'd like to do that as well
