Jesse Ventura Decries the Dumbing Down of America, Lack of 9/11 Inquiry; and Vows To Maybe Stand for Election in 2012

The Ron Paul-a-palooza in Minneapolis proceeds apace. Jesse "The Body" Ventura has just finished an incredible stem-winder in which he favored Mexican immigrants; attacked Dems and Reps; questioned why Osama Bin Laden hasn't been charged with anything in relation to the 9/11 attacks; and threatened to maybe run for office in 2012 if and only if (and maybe) if the Ron Paul movement showed him something this time around.

This is some event—earlier presences included an off-key military warbler working his way through the worst rendition of the National Anthem since Leslie Neilsen as Enrico Pallazo, Americans for Tax Reform's Grover Norquist, and the president of the John Birch Society.
