Former Minnesota governor and WWF wrestler Jesse "The Body" Ventura has moved to Baja California (ie, Mexico), where he claims to be living off the grid. On Jimmy Kimmel Live, Ventura declared: "I'm gonna lead the revolution and become the benevolent dictator of Baja. And when I become the benevolent dictator I'll legalize pot. We will make it the Amsterdam of the West." Viva Ventura!

Hopefully for real, it would go on my list of 'to visit' places.

Didnt he also make that claim when he became governor of Minnesota? I think he is mostly talk but I wish him MUCH success. Peace.

He may have but as governor he has a state senate to deal with, as "benevolent dictator" he can just speak and itll be so, lol

I would love it to be for real - but I remember him most for being a crazy, wacky wrestling commentator back in the late 80's and it sounds like he could be pretty similar to that ever since.

He is also the "sexual tyrannosaur" with the mini gun in Predator.

The Mini-gun that should have been attached to a fuckin helecopter!
Legend!

jesse was the governor of cali not minnesota

Sorry, he was the governor of Minnesota. He was elected the 38th Governor of Minnesota and served from January 4, 1999 to January 6, 2003 without seeking a second term. I like the way ole Jesse is thinking though. I would definitely visit. Be like Amsterdam but with tropical beaches!!!!!!!!!!!!

I put off his rocker!
Although it would be nice in reality its not going to happen and after all he was a WWF wrestler. Dont they all go made and lose the plot anyway from the years of streroid abuse?
Like i said it would be nice
Enjoy

I lived in Southern Minnesota for the last year of Jesse's one and only term as Governor of Minnesota, where he parachuted into the Governor's Mansion Lawn. Why do you think they call him "the body" anyway? - me
