ust back from his part-time home in Mexico, former Minnesota Gov. Jesse Ventura dangled the idea Friday that he could run for the U.S. presidency in 2016.
Ventura eagerly volunteered the possibility while at Minnesota's Capitol - and pushed back against skepticism that he would re-enter the political fray after being out of office since 2003. It's hardly the first time the publicity savvy Ventura has broached the idea he would run for the White House or Senate, only to pass on a campaign.
He said the next race is "an opportune time" for an independent like him to run because there will be no incumbent. He said he's approached radio shock jock Howard Stern about being his running mate, and Stern expressed interest.
An email message seeking comment from Stern's agent was left Friday night by The Associated Press.

I guess he could establish the tin foil party...

So I guess he thought it would be a good idea to kick off his campaign by suing Chris Kyle’s widow. Yeh that will get him a lot of votes. What a slimeball!!

Yeah he’s a real winner now that the scumbag is suing Chris Kyle’s widow.
On the other hand, maybe it will be good if he runs if we can convince libertarians not to vote for him.

Is this before, after or during he continues his lawsuit against Chris Kyle’s widow?

Even though he is a complete nut job, he is more qualified for the office than Obama. After all, he did serve in the military and was governor of a state. LOL!

Self importance to him is the quest in life to remain relevant before
he dies, and ten minutes after. How's that heart on Steroids, freak?

Remember this: While Jesse Ventura was able to become a SEAL, the Navy denied him reenlistment. That’s all you need to know about “The Body”.

"So I guess he thought it would be a good idea to kick off his campaign by suing Chris Kyle’s widow. Yeh that will get him a lot of votes." I was reading a Blaze article about him suing Kyle's Widow. The Article says that Jessie Claims Kyle "Damaged his reputation"...
I giggled uncontrollably at that one. I mean Jessie goes on Alex Jones' Webisodes and you would swear they are having a serious "Bromance".... How can you damage a reputation that includes Rubbing Shoulders with Alex Jones on a regular basis?

I think Ventura has been playing with his dangle too much ... affected his brain.
