“Well now it’s 1998, and the American dream lives on in Minnesota, because we shocked the world!” Great speech marking the greatest third party victory in the US in over 50 years. As he often does, Ventura uses no notes, the speech came from the heart. The woman to Ventura’s left in the glasses is Lt. Gov. Elect Mae Shunk, Ventura’s running mate, a decades long public school teacher who signed up for this long shot campaign, and there she is on election night, shellshocked as the new Lt. Governor of Minnesota. Funny expression on her face. I was there that night. There was a pretty good mosh pit going on. Haven’t seen that at any other political events by for. The crowd was loving it, they hung around for hours after the speech was done.
