Jesse Ventura Eyes 2008 Presidential Bid

Recommended Posts

The real question is, who here would vote for him?

if say, he was running in this election and my choices were Bush/Kerry/Nader/Ventura; I'd probably still vote for Nader, but a vote for Ventura would definately come long before Kerry or Bush.

Vote for who?

 

If you're talking about Bush I already did once, and I'm going to do it again...

I didn't think I had to specify, but yes I was talking about Bush.

 

 

*Reads title of thread*

Bite me.

 

It's 1 a.m. and I've been up since 5 a.m.

 

*pimp slaps YPOV...*

*Returns pimp slap*

 

KKK (teary-eyed): Why'd you slap me YPOV?

 

YPOV: You just slapped me!

 

KKK (angry): Nigga that was weeks ago!

To me you've seemed fiscally conservative yet socially liberal (though not into the oversensative PC liberal zone where someone gets offended because someone else said a word that hurts feelings.)

 

Bush is a 180 in the other direction.

 

 

The same can be said for a few other people on this forum, and they too also plan to vote for Bush. It blows my mind.

The simple reason is that for all of my problems with Bush, those problems affect my view of Kerry even more.

 

Oh, and America's Vietnam HERO came to my neck of the woods yesterday and suggested this little nugget:

 

Outside, across the street, a shirt-sleeved Kerry received a generally warm reception and repeated rounds of applause as he outlined previous proposals to offer college tuition tax credits and establish a program to reward two years of volunteer service with the equivalent of four years of in-state college tuition.

 

Isn't the point of volunteering to do nice stuff to people for free? (Americorps bitches, I'm looking right at you.)

 

Oh, yeah. You're sure keeping your service of Vietnam out of the campaign, you fucking douche:

 

"I'm tired of Karl Rove and Dick Cheney and a bunch of people who went out of their way to avoid their chance to serve, when they had the chance," said Kerry, a decorated Vietnam veteran. "I went. I'm not going to listen to them talk to me about patriotism and asking questions about the future of our country."

 

Onto other things:

 

It's 2 am and I've been up since 6 am.

 

*Returns pimp slap*

 

KKK (teary-eyed): Why'd you slap me YPOV?

 

YPOV: You just slapped me!

Actually, I take my pimp slap back. Being the youngin' that you is, I could probably go to jail for it...

Motherfucker looks like Castro now. He loses South Florida immediately.

But he'll win the Berkeley vote.

 

California's electoral votes > Florida's electoral votes...

But what state made the difference last time?

Well, if Bush had won California the answer would be neither.

 

I guess Florida's far-sighted Jew population is dumber than Cali's...

Well from what I remember, it wasn't actually the far-sighted Jewish population, but a giant majority of Florida's votes for Bush came from the extremely large Cuban presence in south Florida...who by the way Bush is now in danger of losing, or at least that's what I remember hearing.

Ventura was liked at first as governor, IIRC, because they had a budget surplus his first year there and things were going well. Then the economy started to go downhill and Jesse's popularity REALLY declined. There was no way in hell he could have won reelection.

Well, from what I remember, my comment was aimed at those old idiots who made complete asses of themselves on TV and radio, saying that they were disenfranchised and ended up voting for Pat Buchanan and wanted to vote for "Al Gore and Al Lieberman."

 

I'll never forget some hearing I saw on C-Span where this lady got up and said "I take full responsibility for my actions, BUT something wasn't right."

 

Hopefully, enough of these intellectual heavyweights passed away peacefully in their sleep since 2000, and the Sunshine State won't have this problem again.

 

In addition, I personally would like to thank all those police officers that steered black voters away from the polls via roadblocks and attack dogs. If it weren't for these boys (and canines) in blue, Gore might have won...

no...thats called a CIGAR.

It looks more like a blunt.

Cigars could come in the shape of blunts. When people roll their own blunts, they just buy a cigar and fill it with pot.

The alternative is Kerry.

 

Any misgivings we have about Bush, Kerry's at least TWICE as awful in our eyes.

 

And it works the same in reverse for your end.

You know, I've never even smoked weed (or done any other drug), but I really think I could get behind a presidential candidate who wasn't afraid to light up a big fat blunt in public.

He's going to tell bold lies and and stick with them so seriously that one cannot tell whether he truely believes the lie anymore or not?

Bush's "lies" have been due to bad intel.

 

Kerry's are due to an intrinsic inability to tell the truth.

"I don't think our troops should be used for what's called nation-building."

 

And then there was the campaign comment about how the military could be spread too thin. I don't have it off-hand, but remember it being made. But hey...

 

"You know when I say something, I mean it."

He said we needed to deal with Saddam. He did so.

He said we'd go after the terrorists. He has done so.

 

Heck, THAT has been the basis of the beef.

...And, yes, Kerry will lie when there is NO benefit to him lying.
