Former Minnesota Gov. Jesse Ventura (I), “who rarely returns to the Capitol offices he occupied from 1999 to 2003, took the opportunity to say that an independent fellow like him would make an excellent candidate for president in 2016,” the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
Said Ventura: “”I said that 2016 is an opportune moment because there’ll be no incumbent. I believe one issue that would carry me to victory … I would give the people of America to their first opportunity to elect a president who doesn’t belong to either party, since George Washington.”
