They tried to design a democracy so full of checks and balances that it was bulletproof.

They rejected democracy quite early in the negotiations.

Is there anything Jesse Ventura isn't emotional about?

Was Jesse drunk when he wrote this?

We are a REPUBLIC and not a democracy.

All those “checks and balances” were destroyed by FDR. Court packing? Ponzi schemes for votes? Massively enlarging the federal government that did nothing to solve the great depression. Confiscation of gold. Etc.

JFK by his own ineptitude brought us to the brink of nuclear war. He was an idiot in foreign affairs who had no idea what he was doing,

As a political thinker and commentator, Jesse Ventura is a heck of a professional wrestler.

IMO,JFK was the last democrat President that was worthy of even the slightest amount of admiration from decent,respectable,loyal Americans.His Inaugural speech ("we will support *any* friend,oppose *any* foe"),his Berlin speech ("let *them* come to Berlin") and his "a rising tide" speech suggests to me a man who got it...a man who truly cared about this country.

Yes,his private life was a bit of a mess....

[FDR came to the rescue with the New Deal, a program that redistributed wealth from Wall Street to workers who'd lost their jobs as a result of corporate greed and government corruption...]

Most of Europe had recovered while Roosevelt was still raising taxes on a stagnant U.S. economy. What saved the U.S. was the advance of the Nazis in Europe. Europeans began shifting their money and other portable assets to U.S. banks and U.S. markets. Eventually whole corporations uprooted themselves and moved to America. By the beginning of the war the British government had to freeze bank accounts in the UK because of the cash flight to the U.S.

I liked Jesse Ventura until he demonstrated over and over again that he's as crazy as a dung beetle.

Completely bananas. FDR is the poster boy for an unchecked executive. The New Deal pretty much turned the Founders’ vision on its head. You’d think this was written by a guy in a pink tie-dyed suit with feathers on his head or something...

Who said “You’ve never hunted until you’ve hunted man.”

1. Lee Harvey Oswald.
2. Jesse (James Janos) Ventura.

No need to read any further - this posted article is simply documenting the ravings of its ignorant, lunatic author.

Jesse and all the leftists believed in Camelot. It was the closest they have been able to get to the Marxist Paradise they all have been orgasmic about all these years.

“I still get emotional about the JFK assassination 50 years later”

I understand.

I still get emotional about a Philippina hooker I “knew” back in 1976.

FDR and JFK were high points for the founders’ ideals?

...It was at that point that I knew for sure Jess had taken a few too many hits to the dome.

Jesse Ventura is a nut.
He was dropped on his head many times when he was a wrestler.

No American rag will print Jesse's brain droppings? Has to go to the UK for ink? The Brits still think he was a Navy Seal. Meh.LOL
