Product Description
Jesse Ventura tells it like it is, and this time he tackles our government’s biggest secrets. In this explosive account of wrongful acts and on-going cover-ups, Jesse Ventura takes a systematic look at the wide gap between what the American government knows and what it reveals to the American people. For too long, we the people have sat by and let politicians and bureaucrats from both parties obfuscate and lie. And according to this former Navy SEAL, former pro wrestler, and former Minnesota governor, the media is complicit in these acts of deception. For too long, the mainstream press has refused to consider alternate possibilities and to ask the tough questions. Here, Ventura looks closely at the theories that have been presented over the years and separates the fact from the fiction.
In Ventura’s eyes, the murder of Abraham Lincoln and the assassinations of the Kennedys and Martin Luther King, all need to be re-examined. Was Watergate presented honestly, or was the CIA involved? Did the Republican Party set out to purposefully steal two elections on behalf of George W. Bush? Has all the evidence been presented about the 9/11 attacks or is there another angle that the media is afraid to explore? And finally, is the collapse of today’s financial order and the bailout plan by the Federal Reserve the widest-reaching conspiracy ever perpetrated?
“If you’re talking outspoken, unconventional, and no-holds-barred, you’re talking Jesse Ventura.”—Larry King
“I wouldn’t mind seeing Ventura run for president (or for senator, or dog-catcher, or whatever). In addition to talking conspiracy, he’s likely to raise all sorts of other trouble.”—Damon W. Root, Reason Magazine

American Conspiracies by Jesse Ventura July 20, 2010
The One Danimal
I find the book very informative. A lot of research has gone into the writing of this book. I also like the way it doesn't point out a particular scenario. Several are pointed out for the reader to choose. I do however wish the book had covered more New World Order conspiracies. While I don't agree with everything, I still found the book informative. In fact, I'm reading it for the 2nd time now, and will most likely read it a 3rd time before shelving it. I'm certainly not going toi resell it.
Ventura Tells It Like It Is - A Must Read July 14, 2010

Outstanding analysis and counterstrike to the official versions of the major conspiracies of our time.
A real eye opener in many ways, makes you realize the "official story" is just that - a filtered, slanted, edited story having little to do with the actual facts.
Kudos to Jesse Ventura for daring to tell it like it is - not the candy colored pablum fed us by the mass media.
A must read for all school government classes and voters July 11, 2010
Jerry M Hayes (Glen Carbon, IL United States)

As a retired college professor and law school student, this should be a must read for all high school government classes. Jesse Ventura exposes the dirty world of politics, the coverups and scandals that have made this country a slave to the the federal govenment. In 2011 we will have the largest tax increase in American history because of the Wall Street scandal and the unrestricted goings on by the Federal Reserve Bank, the Treasury and CIA. We need to wake up and become more involved in what our politicians are doing. Americans need to take a stand! Believe it or not, Jesse Ventura will at least make you question whether what he has written is true or not-it is documented well. The 'Magic Bullet' theory by Arlen Spector was the biggest scam of the Warren Report. Anyone who was around when President Kennedy was assassinated knew this was a complete sham. Thanks Jesse Ventura for serving this country in the military and as Governor of Minnesota. And thanks for writing the book and waking me up. I am ready to take a stand!
