i am actually EXCITED about this interview. Jesse Ventura, as you guys just mentioned, is somebody who actually managed to WIN as a third party candidate in his state. Look, the country is SO sick and tired of the corporate duopoly and war machine that is our two-party system. Trying to overtake the DNC has been a proven failure - Kyle admitted this himself with regard to Justice Democrats - but at the same time, the system is so rigged against third parties and we do not have ranked-choice voting and neither do we have open primaries. The two-party duopoly needs to be broken up once and for all and we must have a party that fights for and represents the working class because neither two parties will do so. I am sick of being a registered Dem in NYS which is a closed party state. The Democratic and Republican have long outlived their purpose, and it's time to do away with them once and for all for the sake of civilization, and if there is anybody who'll show us how to triumph over this duopoly, it's gonna be Jesse Ventura. I hope he runs for president in 2024. I voted for Howie Hawkins in 2020, the very first time I voted for a 3rd party candidate in my lifetime, and I am PROUD of it.

He is an interesting man. On one hand he basically was black balled by pro wrestling for attempting to unionize but was ratted out by Hulk Hogan one reason I hate Hogan. On the other hand he has some terrible theories on 911

Great for back then, not now. Face it we have a TWO party system. The only purpose of a third party is siphon off votes from one party. See Green Party, often funded by the GOP. The Green Party became irrelevant when Democrats adopt nearly all green policies.

Our focus should be on supporting the only party the still believes in democracy, fair elections, education, battling, climate change, fair taxation, unions, NATO, etc.

Sit this one out Green and Forward Party .
