If he werent the nations 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 countrys 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.

You gotta admit that the words President Moonbeam have a nice ring to them.

The sad things is that this pathetic pothead would be far, far better than the “thing” currently stinking up the White House.

Well with Biden, Hillary, and Brown, the Dems would give new meaning to the “Senior Tour”.

Moonbeam would surely name his good friend Hanoi Jane to a Secretary position.

When Hillary isn’t far left enough for you, you have a problem.

Jerry Brown or Hillary. Gonna have to think on that one. I really don’t expect the GOP to run anyone capable of winning.

His dad, Pat Brown was elected in 1958, then four years later, beat Richard Nixon, then four years after that, was defeated by Ronald Reagan. Then eight years later, Jerry succeeded Reagan as governor.
Then Jerry was mayor of Oakland, then Attorney General, and now governor again. His life has been about the government.

I’d like to see it. He’s flypaper for freaks, and it’s a great way to smoke out the true freaks in the Rat party.

“Even Linda Ronstadt left him.Sometimes less really is less Jerry.”
Have you seen Linda Ronstadt lately? Just think of how Bridget Bardot “aged” on steroids. But then again Jerry married a woman who looks like a man, so go figure!
