@GovJVentura is Mexico going to win the World Cup?

Jesse’s response:

First of all, I’m not a soccer expert. Second of all -- the World Cup -- there are so many teams and I don’t think anyone can accurately predict who’s going to win from year to year because you don’t see many repeats. It’s only every four years and you don’t usually see anyone win back to back. That’s one of the intriguing things about it: nobody has a clue who’s gonna come through the wash and who will end up in the finals.

Although I like the United States [team], there’s not enough scoring. Here’s one that will get em’ going – if I had my way, they should try it without goalies. I think it would be exciting! You’d see guys score from way out in the field and scores would be like fourteen to twelve.

Here’s the frustrating thing for me about the World Cup. Not being a soccer aficionado, I respect these guys who are remarkable athletes. There’s no doubt about it. It’s the most popular game in the world. But how can they go ninety minutes and nobody scores? I mean, c’mon! There’s ninety minutes! That’s why I’d like to see ‘em try it without goalies just for once. That’s gonna happen about as quick as you’re gonna get fighting out of the NHL.

@GovJVentura what can I do to help your 2016 presidential run? #dedication #AskJesse #StayVigilant

Jesse’s response:

To my knowledge, there isn’t one. I’m not running. I’m not preparing for anything because I made a statement that would require ballot access in all fifty states. It would require some type of guarantee I could be in the debates. Certainly, I’m happy doing what I’m doing at Ora TV. I’m happy with the lifestyle that I have right now and I have no intention of running for president in 2016. I see nothing that indicates that I will because I don’t see any big grass roots rising up for me.

       On your previous show you had researched the Kennedy assassination and appeared to be on the verge of discovering the truth and then the episode ended.  What was left unsaid?

Jesse’s response:

The thing about the Kennedy assassination is, there’s no doubt in my mind that Lee Harvey Oswald did not kill our president. This was the crime of the century -- and mainstream media and the government are never going to admit that the crime of the century was wrong. There is no evidence that you could bring forward that could get them to admit it.

I heard Dan Rather the other day talking about [it]: after fifty years of it being a conspiracy someone would have talked. Well, people have talked, Dan. It’s just that mainstream media doesn’t report it. On my TV show, we had a full confession. Audio, video and,the whole thing from E. Howard Hunt to his son. Wasn’t one word about it in mainstream media that E. Howard Hunt confessed to his part in it. And you even had Richard Nixon, the President of the United States on his own tapes, stated unequivocally that the Warren Commission was the biggest hoax perpetrated on the American people. Now, I challenge Dan Rather – he says nobody’s talked? Richard Nixon, the President, did. E. Howard Hunt did. And more and more people have. It’s just that Dan Rather and mainstream media will never give them the light of day because they don’t want to admit they were bamboozled. They don’t want to admit they got the crime of the century wrong! It’ll never come out and you will never get an official [answer]. Although if you go to the ’76 house select committee on assassinations, the last official investigation by the U.S. government – their final determination was that Kennedy was killed by a probable conspiracy. And yet nobody talks about that – mainstream media always goes back to the equivalent Warren Commission.

       I get annoyed when I hear that Ronald Reagan is the best president. The more I research, the more I come to my conclusion that he is not. What are your thoughts and feelings about this president and what would you tell the people who are delusional who think that he was a great president?

Jesse’s response:

Ronald Reagan was the best ACTOR as president, because Ronald Reagan was a professional actor. He played the role. And therefore in playing the role, the Republicans have declared him the best president ever. Ronald Reagan had plenty of flaws. You are absolutely correct. There is no “Best President.”  The times change. The world situation changes. People change. You can’t sit and label someone the “Best President.” People who do that are truly shallow in many ways. It’s like asking, “Who is the greatest baseball player of all time?” How can you say that when you have different eras of baseball?

       What is your view on a set term for senate and congress just as the president? I feel this would reduce the hands in the pockets so to speak.

Jesse’s response:

If the President has an 8-year term limit, why should anybody be able to serve longer than the President can? But then again, it’s up to the voters too. If you truly want to get rid of term limits in Congress, take away retirement. Abolish retirement. Because no one is going to stay there 20 to 30 years if they’re not going to get a retirement. That’s a way to get term limits without eliminating them. Public service -- there should be no retirement for it. Did you know I get nothing for being Governor of Minnesota? I don’t think anyone should be getting a retirement for holding an elected office. That’s called public service.

       Jesse - it seems that the banking cartel and the military industrial complex are too big to be controlled in the USA. How would you approach starting to bite into the power of these two cartels and give power back to the individual?

Jesse’s response:

I’ve harped on this for decades now, years. When you have the Democrats and Republicans build a system based upon bribery, the people that bribe them with the most money will get their bread buttered. And the military industrial complex has huge amounts of our money to bribe these congressmen -- it’s a vicious circle -- to continue to give them more money. And that’s the way it works. The only way you can stop all this is by voting out the Democrats and Republicans and truly changing our political system. If that doesn’t happen, you’re going to get the same thing over and over and over again, which is what we’re getting right now. The military industrial complex is very powerful. It’s their business to go to war. And so our congressmen and presidents have been very good at letting them do their business because we’ve virtually been at war almost my entire life.
