This grand reward awaited those who read the ENTIRE DRCNet 
weekly email newsletter, as it was tucked neatly in the next

Jesse Ventura won because he's THE MAN!

Go baby, go.

8. Quote of The Week

"I mean, for goodness sake, we have Stillwater State 
Penitentiary here and we can't keep drugs out of there, and 
these people are locked up 24 hours a day.  If you're going 
to fight the war on drugs, you have to fight it on the 
demand side.  And I don't believe that government should be 
invading the privacy of our own homes, and I also believe 
that you shouldn't be legislating stupidity.  If there are 
stupid people out there doing stupid things, it's not the 
government's job to try to make them smarter.  We live in a 
land of freedom.  And again, if we can't keep the drugs out 
of the state penitentiary, how on earth are we going to do 
it out on the street corner?"

   Minnesota Governor-elect Jesse Ventura, 11/8/98,
   Meet the Press
