Do younremember his platform? His slogan was "Take Back Your Country". Looks like the dude told the truth. Last I heard he was the mayor of Oakland California. At least they didn't have him get a heart attack or unexplained accident. Wh oremembers hi amd who thinks he might have been right?

I do. I voted for him in my Haynesfield Elementary (Bristol, Tennessee) 6th grade election. As I recall everyone else had Jimmy Carter fever and the entire class voted for him. I suppose I was already a Liberal at age 12.
Good habits start early!!

I remember Jerry Brown. Was governor of CA at the time. I liked his idea for the most part but he was a little ahead of his time. Unfortunately, Gov of CA (except for Reagan) does not offer alot of credibility in my opinion. LALA land-- I know there is more. Anyways, I think he was just ahead of his time and lots of people have good ideas but many more just want to listen to what they want to hear and poo-poo the rest. Like who would have thought gas would be so high this summer and people a year or two ago wanted bigger and better SUV's and now the promotions are for mileage!!!!!!!
I do believe more people need to get involved in take back the country from some the those political professionals who have not worked a real job and out of touch with the real world. Not every one has to run for office but pay attention to the world around you and remember the old American Indian saying...... what you do today will effect the next seven generations!!!!!!!!!

purely what does he have that Obama would not? great socialist, wide authorities kinda guy. I went and talked about ol' Jerry in 1992, at a rally, known spend extra, blame the wealthy crap. even as are human beings going to get themselves jointly and take administration of their personal lives? end searching to others for concepts on your own themes. the wealthy get richer because a particular demographic team keeps to be their slaves, not in any respect reaching more desirable for his or her personal fulfillment. Blame your self, they're doing a similar aspect, getting ahead by employing the exertions of human beings.

Yes, back in the early 80's I believe.
Well he was young and vibrant and very controversial.
If I remember correctly Governor Brown didn't have a problem with the legalization of marijuana which didn't indear him to the general public.
