and then he. realized everything. was a big picture. to his. full front of islamic protests sweeping the world. building looking islam. further afield with emotional protests erupting in thailand and india. started sweeping the muslim community. also be territorial room between beijing escalates to chinese patrol ship to waters

around disputed on in japan considers. the u.s. and britain the largest naval exercises off the iranian coast while israel steps. we hear from a former governor of the u.s. state of minnesota and navy seal who's hoping to run for the white house in twenty sixteen and jesse ventura speaks to us about occupy wall street and why he thinks the american electoral system is antiquated and unfair in-depth interview next. sitting down with jesse ventura former governor of minnesota a former navy seal former professional wrestler oxer and bestselling author it's very nice to see you back in our new york studios great to be here now jesse you recently announced that you are considering participating in the presidential race

in the year twenty sixteen as an independent candidate because of course you believe that the two party system was crippled and corrupt so what better timing than now why not do it this time around will because it would take too long you have to build for this she the difficult if i do it i will be with no party it will be just. running for president if i do it well that requires me to get go out get ballot access in all fifty states you can't do that overnight and it costs a lot of money that's why i've made the statement it will return require a grassroots movement of people in every state to go out and do what it takes to fulfill to get me ballot access so that i can be on the ballot and then there's a second requirement i have to be guaranteed i've got to be in the debates because if you're not in the debate you can't win and i do not run for political office just to make a statement when i run i run to win now your new book of course democrat and very

bluntly focuses on the party's being gang like. fighting for power just for the sake of having power and you talk a lot about the need to eradicate corporations from politics and my question to you i guess is how can this realistically be done in a country where this has been the system for ever and you yourself compare politicians to you know possibly wearing now scar racing since because they have so much support from corporations who are going to first national racing suits like if you look at jimmie johnson the great he's got patches all over the tells who is sponsors are well if we require them to wear them out then we. voters will know who owns them there's so much corruption it won't take long it just recently happened before it was against a wall for a corporation to contribute to a political party until the supreme court of our land made that what i call disastrous ruling where they said a corporation has the same rights as an individual and that money is free speech

while i'm waiting for the next guy to rob the bank and use that as his defense so that just recently happened what we need to do is reverse that we have to overturn the supreme court's ruling on those two issues and there is a movement to do that the only way it can be done is to amend the constitution to specifically state corporations do not have the same rights as individuals and money is not free speech not to me is one of the curious details about corporations in power is that we're seeing the same companies investing in both parties and some people say it's a win win situation for them but in reality others say well listen actually this is a lot more like betting on both red and black in roulette because you know either way you lose so what's the point what do they do when you don't lose because one of them is going to be the president and now you own money that you invested in the other or that's nothing to do you know what we pointed out in the book in the book

these major corporations spend more money on lobbyist and what they pay in taxes and that's a fact they spend more on lobbyists than what they pay in taxes let me repeat that you don't find that astounding and why would they do that so they don't have to pay taxes and so i mean like g.e. two years ago they made fourteen billion dollars not only did they not pay taxes they got subsidies from the government. that's obscene what do you think about the election campaign this time around. and i mean obviously critics are calling it a reality show where seeing obama and romney just do you think there's ever really been a bigger disconnect between what we're seeing in the debate in the debates and in the campaign and. what real americans are actually in need of right now i think what you're seeing is them finally rising up to the level of professional wrestling

and i see rising up to it because in pro wrestling in front of the cameras we all hate each other behind the scenes it's a business. and that's the same way it is for them it's a sham in front of the cameras in the public they hate each other and they're on different sides of the fences behind the scenes they're going out to dinner together they're ensuring that there are two party dictatorship maintains its power no difference between these two don't kid yourself now this september marks one year anniversary of the occupy wall street movement which you support the ideas of what role do you think if any will this movement have played in the united states in the long run do you think in a decade from now people will look back and say this really was a movement that changed the national dialogue not. because they've disappeared temporarily they need to come back where are they they need to continue they need

to keep the fired up now they've disappeared a decade from now no one's going to remember the occupy wall street movement not unless it's victorious or does something who hasn't done that yet how can a movement like that with a curious what do they need to do by changing the country they need to continue to stay at the parks they need to continue to get arrested they need to continue to be vigilant how do you think we stop the vietnam war had to be the turning point of the vietnam war many people say it was the sixty eight ted offensive that was huge but i don't believe that was the real turning point for america and i believe the turning point. of the vietnam war was when the four students were killed at kent state because all of a sudden the public the general public went back and said wait a minute we're even killing people in our own country now because of this war i hate to say it but it's going to require something of that magnitude for the wall street movement to truly have an impact and get to the psyche of mainstream america

i would ask about the way the us treats elections abroad while actually really drowning an electoral process flaws here at home why this double standard. always a double standard there was a double standard on the wall street protests while we're busy pepper spraying him and running them off with dogs were heralding the protests over in the middle east all whoa this lovely go go go we're like cheerleaders over there while at the same time here we're squashing down our own protesters at the height of high-pockets. elections the same way we want to bring democracy all over the world and we don't even have it here anymore because the two gangs pick your president mitt romney was picked four years ago you know how i know that he wasn't picked at the convention they knew four years ago you know i know that because when obama won right after

obama won you started seeing these mass say advertisements on t.v. about mormons do you recall those where they'd show a person who was a fire member of teacher and they'd show all these attributes of how wonderful they were and member the person would look at the camera in the end and say and i'm a mormon well they were preparing us for you think considering they say started preparing for years ago he's going to be the next us president no i am why so much effort for somebody because he's the rebel. main man these the one on the pedestal right now john mccain was for you. years ago. george w. bush was in the eight years prior to that you know if i'm interesting about the republican convention they didn't mention one word about bush and cheney how do you ignore a president vice president who are a mere three and a half years ago served for eight years it's like oh boy you know why they don't want to identify with the true culprits who killed our economy very selling the

people now saying we're going to fix the economy this is the same party that ruined it after all from zero zero to zero six bush not only was in the white house he had a republican house and a republican senate so he had one for you want to do rubber stamped the republicans caused this economy to fail barack obama admin heritage you're obviously an advocate for eradicating the institution of the electoral college all night it states rights because every vote has to count this is a system that's not applied anywhere else in the world been applied to any other election in the united states or in that moment for doug or how can this be done easily or a requirement in chairs between democrats republicans they're obviously not interested in changing that system the pianist is one hundred the people after the mandal there are a lot of things that people demand that they don't think of well they have to be persistent and truly demanded they have to threaten to vote

a motto office you've got to threaten if you don't change the electoral college you won't reset and next year that's the only way they respond it's the threat that they could lose their job the american people could really get worked up enough about the electoral college when they have different other things going on hold to deal with difficult but you know the electoral college was good when they put it in you know why you had to travel by horseback to washington that's why it was there it's the only election like that in this country i've been a mayor you were you gets the most votes wins governor congress senate. see the syrian crisis the conflict has been gripping really the world for over a year and a half now what kind of role if any should the united states be playing in this in this whole conflict and if you were president what would you go on with. their business what about the whole idea of the united states trying to help out the syrian people who have the right to stand up against their government so they're the syrian people so as u.s.

president you would have all of that on my business in a free don't. they didn't know for me. i did nor them if they don't wipe me i don't hang out with people who don't like me who leave the world's policeman in fact i drifted step farther if i were president of every every foreign military base in the united states as would be closed to bring our men and women home we have the technology today with our military we can destroy anyone in the world at any moment why do we need bases in occupy i mean we've got multiple bases in japan korea germany haven't those wars been over for sixty years why are we there do you think the same rules apply to no matter what kind of geopolitical interests the united states has with a country in crisis doesn't apply to every country do not get involved in their will or no i would get involved with another country's affairs only or for that

country specifically. please come and help us i want to ask you about julian assange do you think it's been way overblown by the united states in the west and the whole story of his attempts of political asylum to ecuador how do you what's your take on this whole case. where i want to know what they will and i have every right to know what my government does you want to know why. whose money did they use my. taxes and as a taxpayer i have every right to know what the. spending it on every right to think you'll find out oh absolutely not not unless i become president. all right jesse ventura thank you so much for being with us thank you appreciate it's always a pleasure.

a team and squad he's replaced by the return of abu dhabi while we took my money continues to deputize in goal for the injured which actually chosen a the gunners or the high offices east six one thrashing of southampton all their opponents have won just one thousand five hundred games and could come up against former striker and even if you can move to the emirates in the summer. while french oil is up there is a huge amount of making their first appearance in the champions league for eight years and host damo kidd having group a which also includes the numbers are going to porto be a steve spends two hundred million dollars on new players in the summer it's we strike at the time even him a bit the biggest name to arrive from ac milan defender john de silva is set to make his debut in paris after recovering from injury but coach carlo ancelotti isn't making any bold predictions. i said maybe we have to go forward. we cannot think what we are going to do in this competition we have to play this group. be a tough team and with experience we all hope to move on.

the same with football and the world cup winning striker allison little del piero has held his first training session with his new side to sydney f.c. for what you ventas and italy legend is the biggest name ever to join the elite down under and hopes are high the thirty seven year old can help promote the image of antipodean folk who across the globe. contrasts their day for senior city it's a fantastic day for football in the straight and to have some of those credentials in football pedigree greece and our football pitches weekend we've got is on a privilege to be associated with. russia's n.b.a. stars are enjoying the last few weeks of their break before heading back to north america for pre-season so richard van port a potties to catch up with andrei kirilenko is looking forward to joining his new club the minnesota timberwolves. in the end it wasn't a difficult decision to return to be even though he was offered a lucrative contract to remain in russia which shares the lure of the biggest basketball league an award too good for eight hundred forty seven to turn down but
