A Great Idea From Jesse Ventura

6:18 am Random Thoughts

Ventura by ghstone, FlickrThis morning coming into work I heard the local radio guys talking to Jesse Ventura.  You know, the guy who was a pro wrestler and then also the Governor of Minnesota.  I didn’t know this, but he was a mayor before that too.  Quite the impressive guy when you look at it.

Well, he had a really good idea that I think we should put into effect.  What he said is that when he was mayor, he took a 4 year break and got back into the private sector before he ran for governor.  That way he really knew what was going on in the private sector as a governor.  He says that one of the problems with our government these days is that we have career politicians.  People who have been in politics their whole lives and then are supposed to tell us that are actually in the private sector what would be best for us.

I think it’s a great idea!  In fact, right now I want to nominate Jesse Ventura for a Nobel Prize because of that great thought!  I mean think about it, we get these guys in office that haven’t been in the private sector trying to make laws that are supposed to be for our own good, but they have no clue!

Anyway, that’s my political rant for the day.  Thanks Mr. Ventura for the great thought!

    I conmpletely agree that all politicans should see and understand first hand the issues that face the people! As a wrestler, Jesse knows what it takes win the crowd over!

    I agree! Politicians and the media are out of touch with what is really going on with the American public. Then they tell us they are merely representing us. Really??

    Whenever I see jesse on MSNBC commenting I tend to agree with him. I like his middle of the road approach, although he does seem like a bit of a fence sitter.

    like they say, out of sight, out of mind. the politicos r way out of reality sitting in the air conditioned cabins.

    Jesse “The Body” is the man no doubt. I think the polys should take more notice of him

    Jesse the Body is the only politician that could get me inspired. If he had time and some money, he would turn the whole political process upsite down.
