Jerry Brown, urged to run for president, won't rule out 2016 bid
Los Angeles Times ^ | December 17, 2013 | Mark Z. Barabak

If he weren’t the nation’s oldest governor, a ripe 75, Jerry Brown would automatically be counted among serious Democratic candidates for president in 2016.

He boasts a household name, an impressive list of accomplishments in the country’s most populous state — a state some once deemed ungovernable — glowing national media coverage and a deep familiarity with the pitfalls and rigors of a White House bid, having run three times before.

Jerry Brown can’t be all bad. The Clintons hate his guts.

And Michael Savage likes him too, enough to contribute money to his campaign.

Let’s see.... Ronald Reagan was 69 when elected...the libs said he was too old.

...at the age of 73 he retorted in debate...when they said he was too old... “I will not make age an issue of this campaign.”

Now, now... Jerry Moonbeam is 75 which means he’ll be 78 when election comes up?
Joe Biden will be 74 by the time 2016 rolls around...if he makes it.
Hillary will be 69 (yuk)

The hypocrisy of the left never ceases to amaze me.

Yes! Sad indeed that Gov. Moonbeam would be a substantial step up from what is presently occupying the WH.

So was Bridget. BTW, did you see where Ronstadt was physically thrown out of a Las Vegas casino for interjecting her political views in her act? She looked like a beached whale!

President Jerry should be enough to get at least 10 miles of the California High Speed Train from where to nowhere built. He can ride it to his ... hmmm!

The country has gone so low into the gutter with its political leadership that all these losers are saying to themselves and with a good reason “hey, I’m better than that!” Angela Davis will be next to declare.

Don’t count out Carter, he’s still eligible for another term!

Hadn’t seen her in years but.....she looks absolutely awful. Part of that is the hair. She needs a new doo.

I never thought ‘Moonbeam For President’ would sound like a step up.

Jerry Brown would be better than a lot of RINOs. No I’m not kidding. Last time he ran, he was pushing a flat tax.

At least with Jerry, you get stabbed in the front where you can see it coming.

Jerry should run for president in 2016 and if Hillery’s lucky she could share the ticket.

What a pair. An ugly bald-headed idiot and a dumpy old hag who is forced to wear depends. No more strapping on the tools for this water buffalo.

At least Jerry was brought up American.... And, I went to school with his niece, so we got a private audience with him in Sacto way back when. Plus, I know where he went to school, his classmates, so on. (In other words, he’s not a figment of someone’s imagination/Manchurian...)

I saw her at a local salon about 20+ years ago, and I couldn’t believe how far downhill she had already gone then. She might have been able to cover it up with makeup/stuff for awhile, but I could never get that image out of my head (she looked unkempt and acted a bit dour).
