WWF asks Ventura to referee a debate

Saturday, September 2, 2000 

The World Wrestling Federation wants to tap Gov. Jesse Ventura's political prowess for a
presidential candidates forum it is trying to organize, and the governor's spokesman says
Ventura is willing to participate. The WWF hopes Ventura would moderate a discussion
involving Republican George W. Bush and Democratic Vice President Al Gore, who have been
asked to make pitches to the youth-dominated wrestling audience from the ring at a
nationally televised event. Although the participation of the presidential contenders may be
a long shot, said John Wodele, Ventura's spokesman, the pro wrestling group is "dead
serious" and Ventura is open to the idea. He said Ventura's position is that "if the
candidates agree, then I will agree." But he said Ventura wants third-party candidates to
have the same opportunity to speak.
