Article Abstract:
Ventura's election came as a surprise to his opponents because they never expected a former professional wrestler, actor and television announcer to win. He once served as a member of the navy's elite special missions force to Vietnam. His break as a wrestler came in 1975 as 'Surfer' Jesse Ventura.
