Jesse Ventura     Rebuttal 5

Question 5: The Internet. Getting beyond the hype, what role, if any, should state government play in the development, promotion, use, taxation, and regulation of the Internet?

The candidate's responses to question 5 leave
little to disagree with or rebut. The Internet
is a good thing. It's OK for government to help 
build it. It's not OK for government to control
it. As your Governor, I will veto any attempt 
to tax it. Watch for my web site, 
coming soon at:

http://www.JesseVentura.org

The domain name is now active. The site
will be up in the next few days. Once it
is up, watch my site for a new approach.

Some of the candidate web sites are OK,
a couple are well done, and some are 
flat. Check the Jesse Ventura web site
often. We will be doing things on the web 
the other candidates haven't dreamed of.  

Pay attention to how Jesse Ventura uses
the Internet to tell the truth and interact 
with the voters. Watch how most other 
candidates post political promises and talk 
down to the voters. 

Watch the candidate web sites for an 
indication of the kind of Governor a 
candidate might be. Watch the Jesse
Ventura web site as we pioneer a new way 
for voters to interact with their candidate of 
choice, and with public officials.
