In a twitter conversation in response to a question from Roger Stone about seeking the Libertarian nomination for President in 2016, Gov. Ventura stated the following:

If I do I will. It won’t be until June of 2016 because we got to get the pikers out first.

Maybe never, I don’t know. The soonest I can run is 2016. But after that, I probably wouldn’t do it.

The Libertarian National Convention will be from May 26 to May 30, 2016.

    This Jesse sure doesn’t run like the real Jesse! Run, Jesse, run! (Owens, that is!) Cram it up Der Fuehrer’s bum vent!

    I’ll still go all in on Gary Johnson.

    Start seeking the nomination a month after we vote on it? Ventura never could tell time…

    It would be hilarious if Jesse decides to seek the LP nomination after the convention. I’d love to see the egg on his face.

    We all need to get behind Jesse Ventura’s effort to represent our party in the 2017 presidential election.

    Trump and Ventura… I’m not sure who is less serious at this point. A couple of time wasters who like seeing their names in the news.
