Jesse Ventura announces candidacy for President in 2004

Post #5,310 by drewk 8/15/01 4:28:14 PM Reply	Jesse Ventura announces candidacy for President in 2004 He was on the Tonight Show last night. Said that maybe he was the one to show Bush that he shouldn't expect to serve a day longer than his father did. Similarly ... When John McCain was on The Daily Show, Jon Stewart asked him if he was a candidate for 2004. McCains had two points. 1) Any Senator who wasn't currently under indeictment should consider himself a candidate. 2) The only thing known to cure presidential ambition is embalming fluid. I said before the last election, I'd love to see a McCain/Ventura independent ticket. PS: Why are candidates announcing on comedy shows now? This is my sig. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

And, they don't have to pay to reach these voters Political campaigns are a joke.

For that matter, I'm not a member of any political party. I prefer not to affiliate myself with either major party, nor (as yet) any of the lesser parties (though I do lean toward libertarian.)

Now if there is no Indy party members in a state the electoral college gets thrown to the other 2 parties and guess what could happen, Jesse could win 70% of the vote and the colleges go to their own man. thanx, bill Our bureaucracy and our laws have turned the world into a clean, safe work camp.
