Can we hear some reasons?

GOOD
Kinky on education
Kinky is against “teaching the test.” Texas, he says, has the eighth-largest economy in the world, but is first in the U.S. in dropout rates and 49th in education spending. He proposes legalizing casino gambling to fund education. The son of educators, he’s particularly appalled at teacher salaries in Texas, which are $6,000 below the national average. He’s calling his education plan “No Teacher Left Behind.”
Kinky on immigration
Friedman’s unique proposal calls the “Six Mexican Generals” plan. In it, six Mexican generals would be promised $1 million each to prevent illegal immigrant crossings, which would be reduced by $5,000 each time someone crosses into Texas illegally. If that doesn’t work, he said he would just build a huge wall on the Texas side of the Rio Grande.
He’s a fan of biodiesel.
“It’s good enough for Willie Nelson’s tour bus, and the city of Denton (Texas) is using it to fuel their entire fleet of diesel trucks. Biodiesel is fuel you can grow. That’s good for farmers, good for the air, good for the Texas energy industry, and good for Texas. With biodiesel, everybody wins but OPEC.”
"The governor of Texas, as you know, does not have his finger on the nuclear button. He’s more like a judge in a chili cook-off. What the politicians are missing is a sense of humor, a sense of reality, and common sense.”
Please, Texas, vote for Kinky. Why the hell not?
finally, he is not a politican, which is good for every state

I live in Texas and Kinky will get my vote as well as my husbands. Not so much because of what he stands for but because he's honest enough to say it as it is and to tell the people how he stands on the issues, he doesn't shy away from some of the issues facing our state. I think he'll get a lot of votes from the average hard working person. We normally vote republican so i think voting on Kinky is an extreme for us but worth it.

He might be a good governor. I am not sure that Minnesota really thinks Jesse Ventura was a good thing. He would probably try to legalize pot and maybe appoint Willie Nelson to some post. I say yes give him a shot.
