Positive Post about Barr, and Ventura!
Political Lore ^ | Sept 5 2008 | Alexander Nobles

Posted on 09/09/2008 3:13:36 PM PDT by alexnobles

Jesse Ventura stated at Ron Paul’s Campaign for Liberty rally in St. Paul, Minnesota, that he would run for president in 2012 if he determined that the grassroots made significant political advances in the interim. It is doubtful he would run for the Libertarian party nod, given that his name alone is bigger than the entire Libertarian party. Ventura could run as an Independent, getting onto all 50 state ballots and possibly winning. This is something that I will be following personally. It looks like the grassroots is already starting to generate momentum for a run in 2012.

Jesse won in a unique three way race. Democrat Skip Humphrey was so far left, he couldn't count on state employees voting for him and Norm Coleman had just switched from being a DFLer to a Republican and no one was sure if it would stick.
Jesse talked a good, anti-bureaucrat line and even gave back the treasury surplus, but like an over-sized pinball machine, something in his brain went "tilt," less than a year after he was elected.

A lot more losertarians would be involved in politics and support Paul/Barr if they weren’t major stoners.

I think the photo op with VP Al Gore may have been what pushed Jesse over the edge.

Which reminds me, Al Gore was wearing these odd looking black boots during his visit with Jesse Ventura. I remembering noticing them, and thinking they looked rather strange.

Subsequent behavior by Gore has proved he’s a rather strange person anyway.

If he ran and won, would he wear a red/white/blue boa?

That's not a pretty mental picture. Excuse me while I try to scrub that image from my memory. ;)

That might be a little on the conservative side for Jesse.

For a while he was wearing beads in his beard.
