he needs barkley signs for congress or senate i for congress barkley barkley and i kind of thought who who's this barkley what is this independence party at the time who are they and so on i got involved there and i met them and i realized that the majority of the independence party a great many of them were disgruntled democrats and republicans who feel the system's failing and they want something new and so and i felt that way also and so i supported dean when he ran. a long story shorter. dina's from minnesota they have the fourth of july parade and he asked me to walk in it so we're walking. down the crowds going crazy but they're going crazy for me you know you're not a team and i'll never forget dede leaning over to me and whispering there didn't have to whisper it was pretty loud he said see the wrong guys running left was the

. that's the white line you know it was my hometown it's a little not fair that you can be completely sure you do. and that's why i just wonder this would translate in the political popularity and that's where the idea how my hand and that's worth. we had a great big budget surplus because the economy in the ninety's was super strong and because of the taxation rate in minnesota they took in billions of dollars more than they needed and they spent it and i was doing talk radio and i was just outraged over that how dare them that's the people's money it's not just because they have an excess doesn't mean their kids in the candy store and so when they spent the money i got pretty vocal overt and i made a statement on the radio one day i. maybe i ought to run for governor you could

sense the feeling out there that people were looking for something else and weren't getting it the center's never represented it's always the left on the right on the far wings and there and then the center is made to pick at quote the lesser of the two evils i guess when you get a candidate that occupies the center the left and right them can make inroads and i knew. that we needed to ya. voters who did normally vote so i figured there's about twenty four or twenty five percent that are already voted for and independent with well as is ok with them what we have to do and you're right we had to expand the electorate so we can get to twenty five but how do we get to thirty five to thirty seven and i figured well the young voter doesn't vote for it out from if we can motivate that walk of voters to take a chance and show up we had

a shot we did the first part of the campaign on that replay didn't stir well what you do is you do exactly you go to bed at which is whether you did you go to the people still unit event like this on and on would you describe it to slug recently or today i will fly but i mean you think of a governor campaign you can oh you can understand or picture what the other side of the dialler not offering their care why should the time you know good thing which is related to the campaign was love mermaid caroline lived on the right before him but we were never as i and they are three the line of the campaign manager was a poll to yeah there's a bolt out the argument i know he's running told he can't make this stuff up no no it is it was a complete. it was his grass roots because you could possible yes as you said three four people you know doing this when i was young i remember dean taking me to

a debate i think was the twin cities public telephone right and we were sitting in a cafeteria or something watching this debate and that was when. i just decided you have to work for jesse because he was so different from middle in those debates. and campaigns that you were actually part of the strategy and you were there doing the numbers yeah we we really did we had. really good voter targeting gross as well and the other thing people forget about this campaign it was really the first effective use of the internet yes in a political campaign. we didn't have a shield or is that the feelers ations people e-mailing other people but there are some pretty big indicators people forget the context of the entire race we were at the state fair the democrats for some reason that still eludes me invited

everybody to their debate so jesse would show up other third party candidates show up and every time i'd watch these debates go on. everybody would be nodding when jesse spoke so it's not hard to figure out if you're at a democratic primary or that and there's five candidates in the democratic primary and this guy is the second choice of almost everybody there you start to go through this is a very different dynamic than we've ever seen before if he's the second choice of all the democrats that's pretty good that's an awfully good starting place when i initially ram there were multiple opponents because i was in the debates very early on before the primaries even came around but when it got down after the primaries it got down to the big two or if you include me three. hubert h. skip humphrey the democrat hubert humphrey's son the former vice president's son

and he was the current attorney general. maire norm coleman the mayor of st paul who they always i found it very interesting. who had humphrey was always referred to by his political title of attorney general humphrey coleman was always referred to as mayor norm coleman and even though coleman had no more mayor than i did i was always former. jesse ventura so why was the only candidate that had his private sector job put in front of his name where the public and i have been a mayor so should shouldn't be former mayor jesse ventura because we're talking politics here but that's the body or so that i face but in hindsight that was probably good but if they did name the other two private sector jobs i don't want a landslide because then it would have been former warrior skip pomfrey and former

lawyer norm coleman or some of the substance of those debates was really surprising to people and all those things that happened in the debates had never happened i mean they would ask. a question and skip as your family disease of luxury is so he starts talking immediately and you can see him trying to formulate an actual answer as he's talking so eases up his entire two minutes they give the same question to norm coleman he starts right away he's trying to make his points he gets cut off because he's going to go over they ask jesse a question he says yes. and they say nobody knew what to do they say would you like to elaborate on it and and he says us me a question i gave you an answer. still nobody knew it to be nobody and i don't say you know history of politics in there ever not use their entire two minutes to say

something i want to piggyback or that because i don't need them said yes and. i'll never forget the moderator did have a sense of humor because i looked around with stunned because i said well i answered the question on the moderator of the new web yes i mean if you do so at that double song get him into the crowd good and all that required was a yes or no right in another debate it. as of friday night and the two other candidates are all dressed up. jesse shows up the scene is football coaching outfit you know anything like a sweat shirt in and technicians yeah oh home office fax yeah it's all right there and they're just banks people relate to somebody like that you know wasn't all show and then finally there was the third debate where you told a amazing story about

a gay wrestler whose companion couldn't get in to see and then he was dying of aids i mean i heard. all over the state when you said that there was one of the most affecting things that we are seeing wallet how can you have a sign telling you who you love and who you don't get to sit by your bedside toddy or your remote in emergency and be clear again you're not allowed in there there's a good say movie you know and so they and i think that. the fact that i didn't you should know nothing. you know people knew that that the answers they were getting were true and from the heart the truth was what if you were looking at . jesse ventura and and the campaign from the outside as i was that's what started to resonate with me it was it was the truth and you would also often use examples of truth and knowledge that i gave you two things it took place

for debates i said number one is tell the truth just don't want to think and they were to say if you don't know the answer minute yeah it's fine it will make you look a real person you don't have it all there and just personally know your performance than your bait you know you want from what beginning at september october shares and they looked at the shop to the mid twenty's and we had to spell one penny an advertising and that mob i think we did a couple radio at that was that and that's where we got into position actually when i looked it up just a day or two ago and jesse was at fifteen percent october fifteenth. and he finished thirty seven percent so a to a literally a twenty point jump in three weeks to me that's restaurant was about.

i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter to us with over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crimes happen each day. eighty five percent of global wealth you longs to the ultra rich eight point six percent market saw thirty percent from august last year some with four hundred to five hundred three per circuit first check and bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building a two point one billion dollar a i industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only number you need to remember it was one distant showed you can't afford to miss the one and only.

with. things this is. done with the old patients stopping there was a sting of own home. the fund is up and his cards. early on in the campaign you know we did that we we did look at you know some of the results of we're progressing the monkshood groups. naturally marty

to stock still own level of revenue stream we hope i am sure that the chances of me becoming you know i needed to be softened by felt i felt strongly that i'm on shoulder told them i'm sold the ranch that back to defend a lot of people i actually was polishing my kitchen cabinets that i get this call and they said my name is i am on the committee for justice and tour as a candidate for governor and i said yes and they said we're wondering we would like to ask you to be his running mate i said no public teacher i'm not a politician i knew that he wanted somebody who had a background in education because of those what their experience with education did in the schools and such i thought well you know i have i think i had about thirty

years under my belt already of being a teacher and i knew the schools from the children's point the parents point from the administrators and there were a lot of things that i thought need fixing so as i met with my family they. said well you're nearing retirement you are always talking about how to improve education and maybe this is your opportunity so i thought about that so the next day i got a call from justin asking me if i would be interested in being his. running mate as lieutenant and i said yes i will do so i was up from that point on i was so excited because i could talk about education you were crucial to the success of the script i mean there's no way i don't think the justice lives without you on the ticket because. you gave it

a certain sense of gravity to us you know and education is so important to voters and to this day i don't know if people would remember your name but they know that jesse ventura ran with that teacher for sending e-mails side conference room and we were discussing him he said we should do a victory tour road to victory tour now is the first time we came off oil and off you know what second until our and i go all over the state of minnesota in forty eight hours or three days i think for the last week in our vienna meters tall order here. and now we're going to shatter our slow as are going to do the film as a was and he says well we should use the internet and do some wives shot outside of the stuff and fan of build some momentum saw you know i said then i says ok stop doing everything else and once but he decided after that was another thing that nobody had ever done before i mean people have done bus tours and stuff like that

before but the whole rationale behind it was this is the next navy seal our campaign is committed we'll be campaigning when they're sleeping ten miles of the people who go on the road. pam there's right through the cars behind us with with balloons with all those following us and them as laid leave others would replace them so we're going gaming people everywhere her goal of the rubble status wasn't exactly a well oiled machine so we would be running sometimes two three hours behind and we were gone all night so you'd show up three hours late at two o'clock in the morning to someplace somewhere yet and there was still a tremendous number of people that are a nuisance sunday night these people got to work monday morning these are farmers friends or people but they'd waited there for two hours for us to arrive when we come out and it was unbelievable i mean people hanging out at midnight in willmar

minnesota paying off the building and of course the other two immediately imitate it so this skip on for it goes out and gets a bus and he can't get anybody on the bus or to show up so they end up paying people to be on his bus or a crowd gets old and norm coleman has a bus that looks like something out of the music man i mean the whole thing they must spend way more money than we spent in the entire campaign on this bus because the bus would roll and they'd roll out the stuff at me like a stage and all the sound stuff on the get up to the song and dance everything gets rolled up back in a bus off to the next stop we've done a lot of races and i have never seen people work as hard on a campaign as your people did and they were almost all volunteers all staff and everybody was almost dead at the end of that bus trip but they saw it through and it was an amazing success in fact i oddball bread. we hired b.l.u.

ask you she's an agent that she job but everybody all share my campaign the only person that got paid was doug fried lime and that's because he had to leave his job full time. and take over you know the campaign for the party so we paid doug the equivalent of what he made to. hold this is truly a people's campaign i don't think we've seen anything like it before since the democrats other parties talk about their get out the vote program volunteers all this organization they have this is a situation where the people organize themselves. we were driving there to canterbury that night early evening there was a strange. circle around the mood in the sky that night truly was because i remember my son and my wife and i all looked at it. in the backseat

and dad something strange is going to happen he said to me on the way out. and so we went out there with that expectation but when i truly realize. it i always believed i could win but believing. different things but what got me that night was when word came in that the lines to register were longer. that. you know we have same day registration in minnesota and i thought that's the key these people are. for the status quo they're not waiting in the law in. the first time and i'll just state this i can't tell you all. how many people have come up to me and it just makes me feel so good to tell me always you know you were the first person i

ever folded. to me. more than anything being the governor was the fact that we have that type of. on the people they told us were untouchable w c c o or me up that morning in their little political report of us crosses yeah the universe they were in a sort of moved out lives around the block were young people registering to vote on a large and a that the first time i said make out we may have done that because that was the missing piece that i didn't know of all time who are they going to show off i've never seen before or since the initial returns came in with you have thirty seven percent can you never move i've never seen anything like this all happens yes all night it was thirty seven percent and coleman was trailing and he made a little bit of a movie at one point and i thought well that's the end of it now call him annoyance

but it never happened he will never get that it was interesting because when the first ferry returns came in the very first it was right in the order humphrey coleman e. the second returns came in humphrey ventura coleman i moved up to second and then i think it was that what five percent to seven percent was when i took the lead was that about because they had a three percent to five and a stab at that they came in with a missionary and i went from why i asked to second the first that was the real amazing thing is that it was skip and roger molds that put me in the debates thinking i was going to take republican conservative votes because of fish called conservative and it was the opposite come from at that time was polling like forty six percent coleman was at is thirty thirty two where he was all the time i was like ten and it was humphrey that went to twenty eight and i would be thirty seven and warm sleeper so norm was always within the margin of error never went up never

went down i'll never forget the fact that we were in the bathtub and i had already gone out once to the crowd and they were demanding i go out again and i said no i'm not born out until the election jolles for i have no. just to go out there you know the election's over i'll never forget bill was right here to my right side. on the t.v. set the for mark. jesse ventura's being declared the winner i don't remember which you from c.b.s. or a.b.c. i don't know who made the first call but then all of a sudden the other two came right along the border. got to me there was only sixty percent of the vote. and they were declaring me the winner. everyone wanted me to go out there and i said i'm a boy you know. how when there's only sixty percent of the vote. i said you want me

to walk out there and declare myself the i said what if i lose you well i'll be the biggest laughingstock in the history i said i'm not there yet and i'll never forget bill sitting there call me quiet man. he looks at me. he said you trust. to ensure i said yes bill i did he said trust me. i said. i said bill does forty percent of the phone left how can you say they haven't been wrong in fifty years because you've got to go all the way to. do here true whatever zachary fifty years. and fifty years ago you are the governor and i remember all of those huddling in the closet there to try to figure out what to do next and terry who's the unsung hero of this new pain. was crying ashley because she did not want to be first lady despite the fact

that she turned into like the best first lady. it was just chaos at that point and i remember the other memory i have was when i finally did walk out. all those. were. all of a sudden there was like twelve. taken over. taken over. it was a case in this election where. we. were. just as i said if you saw behind the scenes when i made the statement. if you would have been behind the true.

world. people. speak of the. quote.

there's no bowl around break here in rwanda no one says terrorists.

but there are bad memories the boat twenty four years ago this country's soul a real look at the end of the world. after the genocide there i'm all the women in rwanda. that fell to women to fix what the men had broken. what politicians do. they put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. more somehow i want to be. like to be for us was like before three in the morning can people get. interested in the waters of

our. city. it's hard to imagine decades after the war a nazi domes there was still active rich in. one hundred seventy s. cret intel had as the chair of its board a man convicted of mass murder and slavery at ash was a german company developed from the divide a drug that was promoted as completely safe even during pregnancy and it turned out to have terrible side effects what has happened to my baby is anything paul you know she said is just cut short arms minix a little mind victims i have to this day received no compensation they never apologized for the suffering that i did not only want the money i want the revenge .

on the. country i'm going to. be with. you are you going to be. a tremendous success trumps a verdict on the republicans holding on to the senate in the midterms while the democrats regain the house of representatives saying it's a huge blow to the president. it's almost a boy it was never meant anything like this in history ever we had a country in. trouble. it was though a record breaking only vote on alt.
