It gets very complicated when you try to argue on a forum with people defending Ventura, and, who know their stuff.

There are common sense elements, but there are also muddied waters arguments and technical arguments.

For instance NAVYSEALS.com lists him as SEAL.

We lived in Minnesota when Jesse ran for gov. The DFLer (Democrat) was Skip Humphrey, Hubert's son, an avowed leftist. The Republican candidate had been a Democrat until a few months prior to the election, so no one was really sure who he was.
Jesse talked a fairly conservative line and a lot of blue collar voters who didn't usually turn out for a gubernatorial election voted for him.

About six months after he was elected, something short circuited in Jesse's brain. He decided to support the light rail boondoggle through St. Paul and then threatened to kill a reporter for the Star Tribune newspaper.

It was totally weird...
