MINNEAPOLIS -- Former Minnesota governor Jesse Ventura is no stranger to shaking up the political world. Now, the one-time professional wrestler says he'd seriously consider being Donald Trump's 2016 running mate.

"If Donald Trump were to ask me to be his running mate, I would give it very serious consideration because anything to break up the status quo of this country," Ventura told CBS affiliate WCCO. "This country needs to be shaken up. It needs to be shaken to its very core, and Donald Trump is doing that."
