More quotes by Jesse Ventura
What do we have for veterans? Government-run health care. I understand that. Congressmen and senators... they get five choices of government-run health care. Why should a congressman and senator get anything more than a regular citizen does? Why are they privileged and the rest of us aren't?
Jesse Ventura
I decided to run for governor because I got mad... I want to make government more directly accountable to the people.
Jesse Ventura
Anyone can run for office. When I ran for Governor of Minnesota, the only requirement was that you had to be a state resident. I believe you had to be over thirty five years old, something like that. That's the way our country was founded. That anyone can run for office. That you're not required to be a lawyer, you're not required to be anything.
Jesse Ventura
My position is that it isn't government's job to mandate patriotism. To me, mandating a pledge of allegiance to a government is something Saddam Hussein would do.

Get every candidate to wear a NASCAR racing suit when they go debate this way we can see how their sponsors really are.

Disabled people need more invested in their education, housing, job training, transportation, assistive technology, and independent-living facilities. Governments earn back this investment - and more - by making people with disabilities economically productive citizens.

People in this country need to understand when you go to any airport in the United States, you are not protected by the Constitution or the Bill of Rights. They can do anything they want to you, and there is no where you can go to seek redress.
Jesse Ventura
Patriotism is voluntary. It is a feeling of loyalty and allegiance that is the result of knowledge and belief. A patriot shows their their patriotism through their actions, by their choice.
Jesse Ventura
Government is like physics, you know - for every action, there's a reaction.
Jesse Ventura
Barack Obama's large contributor was Goldman Sachs - same thing on the Republican side. If you go to both their conventions, you see the same lobbyists paying off both sides so they win either way.
Jesse Ventura
You can't legislate morality.
Jesse Ventura
In a free society, how can you commit a crime against yourself?
Jesse Ventura
I live in Mexico in the wintertime, and I live off the grid down there.
Jesse Ventura
I love fat people. Every fat person says it's not their fault, that they have gland trouble. You know which gland? The saliva gland.
Jesse Ventura
Government has no place telling you who to fall in love with and who to marry.
Jesse Ventura
When you reach a certain age in life, time becomes more important than money, and I think that happens in your 50s.
Jesse Ventura
Win if you can, lose if you must, but always cheat.
Jesse Ventura
The thing is, and Americans are starting to realize this now, that while street gangs are violent, the Democrats and Republicans are worse. They are worse because their decisions affect your life.
Jesse Ventura
Congratulations, you have a sense of humor. And to those who didn't: Go stick your head in the mud.
Jesse Ventura
I believe to go along to get along is unpatriotic. I believe that agreeing with your government on everything they do is unpatriotic. I believe a patriot stands up and holds your government's feet to the fire. Because if you do that, you will get good government.
