http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/video/jimmy-mcmillan-shakes-up-ny-governor-debate-11916853 Not a referral link. This man, Jimmy MicMillan, is running for govenor of NY state in the "Rent is 2 damn high" party. Watch the video.. it's entertaining! He reminds me a little of Samuel L Jackson! Well, I did not vote for him.. but he did make the whole election season rather entertaining for us New Yorkers. I heard today they're making him into a little doll that says "The rent is too damn high!". Have you heard of this guy? Would you vote for him? Have you ever had an "entertaining" candidate in your area?

I really can't think of any candidates that we've ever had in our area that have been especially entertaining. That said, I did hear audio of a candidate in Ohio that was running in a primary election and I really thought that man was downright entertaining. It really was a shame in my opinion that he didn't make it past the primary election. I would have loved to have seen an entertaining personality like that win an office.

Only if they're truly capable of doing the job they're elected for. This Jimmy McMillan.. I don't believe he'd be capable of being a govenor. I am definitely more concerned with the results they'll get in office than whether or not they'd entertain me!

I have never heard of him.....we however in Minnesota had Jessie Ventura for our governer....and he was a darn good one at that....If they would have been smarter he would still be at the capital...he was a rebel....but a smart one!

I knew Jesse Ventura was a governor.. and I mean, come on.. Arnold is a Govenor too.. just crazy! Jimmy McMillion got around 20,000 votes... better than 2 other candidates.. but not near good enough to be elected. Andrew Cuomo won with a little over 50% of the votes while Carl Paladino got around 40% of the votes.

I dont vote, never have and probably never will. I know that there are so many people that fully believe in it and even get mad when you tell them that you dont but there are a few reasons why I dont one is i feel like none of what a politian says is true, my vote wont make a difference anyway and I am not voting because I dont want to be called for jury duty...i have heard that voting doesnt mean you get called for jury duty but i have never voted and never been called....
