Jesse Ventura will "test the waters" for presidential run - April 2020

Wrestling legends and Former Governor of Minnesota considering a bid for President Of The United States

I'm an independent. I'm not a Democrat or a Republican because I know they're not the solution. I refuse to vote for “the lesser of two evils” because in the end, that’s still choosing evil.

American and global political is about to get a shot of WrestleMania, thanks to pro wrestling (and political) legend, Jesse Ventura aka "The Body" and "The Mind".

Ventura has beaten fellow pro wrestling legend Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson to the punch in what will be his second dive into the political arena. WWE management legend, Linda McMahon (wife to WWE top brass Vince McMahon), is a current member of the Trump administration. It's getting very interesting also folks isn't it! Ventura has a bit of a public beef about what constitutes at a WWF "contractor", but we'll get more into the nitty gritty of that point at another time.

Mark it down in the history books punters - Ventura has just announced via social media that he is getting serious about representing the Green Party.

OK, I’ve decided I’m going to test the waters. IF I were going to run for president, the GREEN party would be my first choice. I’ve endorsed the party and I’m testing the waters.

To be clear: I haven’t filed anything. I authorized a letter of interest that was sent on my behalf to the Greens and I’m testing the waters for Green Party nomination. I’m an independent. I’m not a Democrat or a Republican because I know they’re not the solution.

Jesse Ventura hasn’t filed any paperwork. Nothing is official. He is current “testing the waters.” Let’s see if he can get anyone to show up at the polls.

Ventura via his Facebook on 27th April 2020:

I keep getting asked who I’m voting for, if I’m going to endorse anyone, if I’m going to run. Let me be clear: I have ZERO confidence in Democrats and Republicans. That doesn’t mean I won’t be voting. If you want to know my “down ballot,” it’s the Green Party. My political views are more aligned with the Green Party than any other party, so for me it makes sense. I’m voting Green all the way and if you’re looking to me for guidance, then do some research into who is running GREEN in your state and VOTE THEM IN. Yes, this is me endorsing the party. I'm voicing my opinion on which party has earned my vote (and has earned it in the past). I've also decided I'm going to test the waters with them. IF I were going to run for president, the GREEN party would be my first choice. I authorized a letter of interest that was sent on my behalf to the Greens - to be clear, I haven't filed to run - but right now I'm testing the waters, seeing if there is interest and support for me for the Green Party nomination. So we'll see where this goes. I'm an independent. I'm not a Democrat or a Republican because I know they're not the solution. I refuse to vote for “the lesser of two evils” because in the end, that’s still choosing evil. You want change? VOTE your conscience. That’s the only way to get the pencil pushers, the chicken hawks, the draft dodgers with so called “bone spurs” out of Washington in 2020.
