Ventura Talks 2016 Presidential Run On 'The View'

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- He won't be on the ballot this November, but Jesse Ventura might run for office in 2016.

On "The View" Monday, the former Minnesota governor talked about what he thinks is wrong with politics.

He said Democrats and Republicans have silenced average voters and sold out to the wealthy and corporations.

Barbara Walters asked Ventura why he doesn't run again. He said he might.

"If I do run for president...I will run as an individual with no political party," he said. "If you vote for me, you won't have the baggage of these two gangs."
