Brown previously served as the 34th Governor of California, from 1975 to 1983. Because Brown was elected to both of his terms as the 34th governor before the new terms limits law was passed in 1990, he was eligible to run again in 2010. In a protracted battle, he edged out Republican Meg Whitman in the 2010 general election.[1]
In 1982, Brown set a record when he approved 98 percent of the bills presented to him by the state legislature.[2] While he did not break the record he set in 1982, after the fall 2012 surge of legislative activity subsided, The Associated Press published an analysis of Brown's signing and vetoing behavior during the 2010-2012 legislative session that showed him to have the highest rate of bill singing of any governor since he left office the first time.[2][2] Brown presides in concert with a Democratic majority in both chambers of the state legislature, which translates to a higher rate of bill approval.
Before he assumed the governorship for the first time, Brown had served one term as Secretary of State of California. Brown remained active on the political scene between his stints in the governor's office. He was chair of the California Democratic Party from 1989 to 1991, mayor of Oakland, CA from 1998 to 2006 and then returned to state row in 2007 following his election as state attorney general. As attorney general, Brown brought suits against Standard Oil of California, International Telephone and Telegraph, Gulf Oil, and Mobil for violation of campaign-finance laws, often arguing in person before the California State Supreme Court, and enforcing laws requiring members of the California State Legislature to disclose sources of campaign funds.
Brown's electoral history also includes three unsuccessful runs for President of the United States - in 1976, 1980 and 1991 - and for U.S. Senate in 1982.[3]
His experience outside politics includes founding the Oakland School for the Arts and the Oakland Military Institute and working as an attorney for the firm of Tuttle and Taylor.[4]
Brown is eligible for re-election and intends to defend his post in the 2014 gubernatorial election.[5]
Brown was born on April 7, 1938 in San Francisco, California. He is a graduate of St. Ignatius High School, the University of California at Berkeley, and Yale Law School.
Shortly after receiving his law degree, Brown worked as a law clerk for Justice Matthew Tobriner at the California State Supreme Court. He later went on to study briefly in both Mexico and Latin America. Brown returned to the United States and was admitted to the California State Bar, after having initially failed the bar exam. He joined the Los Angeles private practice law firm of Tuttle & Taylor.
Beginning in 1995, Brown hosted a daily call-in talk show on the local Pacifica Radio station, KPFA-FM, in Berkeley, California. Both the radio program and Brown's political action organization, based in Oakland, were called We the People. His programs, usually featuring invited guests, generally explored alternative views on a wide range of social and political issues, from education and health care to spirituality and the death penalty. He strongly critiqued both the Democratic and Republican parties, often referring to himself as a "recovering politician."

Political career
Governor of California 2011-present
Judicial appointments
As governor, Brown is responsible for appointing judges to California state courts. Nominees to the California Supreme Court and California Courts of Appeal must be confirmed by the California Commission on Judicial Appointments. Appointed appellate judges stand for retention in the gubernatorial election following appointment; judges of the Superior Courts run for the seat in the next general election. For an up-to-date list of all of Brown's appointees, see Judgepedia's page on his appointments.
Veto rate
The secretary of the California Senate reported that when Brown served his first two terms as governor (between 1975-1983), he approved bills at a rate of 96% on average, "and set a record in 1982 when he approved 98 percent of the bills that crossed his desk."[2] While he did not break the record he set in 1982, after the fall 2012 surge of legislative activity subsided, The Associated Press published an analysis of Brown's signing and vetoing behavior during the 2010-2012 legislative session that showed him to have the highest rate of bill singing of any governor since he left office the first time.[2] Records collected from the California State Library and the secretary of the California State Senate revealed that Brown vetoed 13 percent of the 1,866 bills the legislature put before him over the last two years.[2] Before Brown began his third non-consecutive term as governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger, vetoed bills at a rate of 27%. Brown presides in concert with a Democratic majority in both chambers of the state legislature, which translates to a higher rate of approval, in contrast with the experience of his Republican predecessor.
Adult education transfer
In his 2013-14 budget, Brown proposed granting California's community colleges sole responsibility for adult education, instead of leaving adult education to both K-12 schools and community colleges. The governor's budget summary for K-12 education explained that this change would improve upon the existing plan. Presently, school districts do not have specifically earmarked funds for adult education and so adult education funding has been significantly reduced in recent years due to budget cuts. According to the summary, "the proposal eliminates the current bifurcated system and places the community colleges in a position to improve coordination at the regional and statewide levels. Community colleges are better positioned than K‑12 schools to address the needs of adult learners because that is their core function." The community college system would be allocated $300 million in block grants for K-12 adult education and $15.7 million for the apprenticeship program.[6] While commending the governor for addressing the need for restructuring K-12 adult education, the California Legislative Analyst's Office referred to possible alternatives to the the governor's proposal in its previous reports.[7] In December 2012, for example, the LAO recommended requiring school districts to separate the funding for adult education from their general funds.[8] The California Council for Adult Education (CCAE) released talking points which said that "the shift of the responsibility of Adult Education to the Community Colleges is problematic" for many reasons, including that the 300 K-12 adult education centers are more accessible to and considered more "culturally proficient" by many Californians who use their services than community colleges would be.[9]
Environmental-agency legislation
Brown approved a number of changes regarding environmental agency policy during the fall of 2012.[10] Among them was a bill to change the name of the Department of Fish and Game to the Department of Fish and Wildlife.[11] Assembly Bill 2402 aims to concentrate the department's efforts on ecosystem conservation through science-based policy. Other provisions include expanding the department's collection of fees beyond the money raised through hunting and fishing licenses and the department's law enforcement capabilities. The same week, Brown approved a state ban on "the centuries-old practice" of using hounds to hunt bears and other natural predators. The third change, SB 1148, to earn Brown's signature that week will allow the department, which will be rechristened January 1, 2013, to raise money by contracting with nonprofit conservation groups "to manage state-owned lands and charge fees for using more of its properties." The money raised could offset the $300,000, according to the state legislature's estimates, it will cost the department to redo the department's website and computer systems, as well as help curtail the state's persistent financial crisis.[12]
Throughout his tenure as Governor of California, Brown has singled out the embattled liberal political organization, ACORN, for praise, saying, "[I]n this job I spend my time calling on that same network of community organizers that has been there right along…When I talk to people about community programs, I want to talk to the people from ACORN and Fair Share and Mass Advocacy -- all the community groups that I've known over a period of years." [13]
In June 2001, Brown, as mayor of Oakland, worked closely with both ACORN and ACORN Housing on an anti-predatory lending campaign called "Don't Borrow Trouble."
The June 2008 Survey and Scorecard report published by ACORN gave Brown an A letter grade. The report was published to shine the spotlight on state attorneys general "leading the fight to protect homeowners from joining the flood of Americans losing their homes to foreclosure," so says the group. [14] The grade distributed to the individual attorneys general "generally broke down along party lines," with the exception of Louisiana's Buddy Caldwell. [15]
In September 2009, conservative investigative journalists James O'Keefe and Hanna Giles posed as a pimp and a prostitute and secretly videotaped conversations with ACORN employees. Reps in various offices across the country, including the San Diego branch office where Juan Carlos Vera worked, counseled the pair on how to set up a brothel for young girls, barely thirteen years of age, from El Salvador. When asked how such an operation should be reported to the IRS, several individuals supplied the needed information. Following the release of the tapes, Vera was fired. A month later, Brown's office announced it was opening an inquest into both ACORN and the circumstances under which the political action group was videotaped. California Penal Code Section 632 prohibits the recording of 'confidential communications' without consent. California is one of twelve states that require notification of both parties prior to recording. In 1989, a California State appellate court ruled that "this statute applies to the use of hidden video cameras to record conversations as well." [16]
ACORN official David Lagstein, speaking to the East County Democrat club on October 15 about the California Attorney General Jerry Brown's investigation, seemed to suggest the fix was in. [17] He assured supporters, saying, "The attorney general is a political animal, but certainly every bit of the communication we have had with them has suggested that the fault will be found with the people that did the video and not the people with ACORN." [18]
Cuba trip
Nearly a week after Meg Whitman, the Republican gubernatorial nominee in California, was dealt a political setback with allegations over her dismissal of a maid who was an illegal resident in the United States, Brown faced a scandal of his own involving the Latino community. According to allegations, a July 2000 political junket that Jerry Brown, who at the time was Mayor of Oakland, and his staff took to Cuba was in violation of America's sanctions against the Communist dictatorship. The purpose of the trip was to formalize Oakland's sister-city status with Santiago de Cuba. [19] While Brown's trip has been a matter of public record for a decade, the fresh attention it is receiving comes from an article, published in The Daily Beast and the San Francisco Chronicle, detailing Brown's movements on the island and reporting snippets of conversation. [20] [21]
Later reports said Brown's entire trip was set up by a former CIA agent who became a double agent for Cuba before defecting to the island. Phillip Agee, a CIA expert on Latin America in the 1960s, divulged the names of hundred of American agents before fleeing the United States in the mid-1970s; many in America's intelligence community believe information he divulged led to at least one murder.[22] MI6, Britain's intelligence agency, also connects the assassinations of two of their agents in Poland to Agee's leaked info. [23] After setting up in Havana, he reinvented himself as a travel agent, and eventually came to count Jerry Brown as a client. [24] Agee was candid about his ambitions for his "Cubalinda" travel agency: "Well, I would like to see people ignore the law, that is to the degree the law doesn't have any meaning anymore." Agee also admitted that he was instructing his American clients to make payments through European accounts to skirt regulations on U.S. travel to Cuba. Of Agee's services, Brown allegedly said, he's "a very good travel agent...got everything done...he's quite a guy." [20]
At the time of Brown's excursion, Agee's U.S. passport had long been revoked and his travel agency was not on the list of OFAC's approved businesses. OFAC, the Office of Foreign Asset Control, operates under the auspices of the U.S. Treasury, whose approval is legally required before American citizens may travel to Cuba. U.S. Sanctions against Cuba fall under the "Trading with the Enemy Act" and are specifically enumerated in the Cuban Assets Control Regulations, 31 CFR Part 515. According to OFAC guidelines for travel to Cuba, "Unless authorized by a general or specific license, any person subject to U.S. jurisdiction who engages in any Cuba travel-related transaction violates the Regulations." [25]
"Whore" comment
A private conversation that was inadvertently recorded via a voicemail message machine in 2010 showed Brown supposedly willing to slander his Republican opponent, Meg Whitman, as a "whore" after she announced she would "exempt public safety officials from key parts of her pension reform plan," something Brown refused to do as State Attorney General.[26] The controversial comment came after Brown telephoned the Los Angeles Police Protective League and left a voicemail message requesting their endorsement in the gubernatorial contest. Brown, believing he had hung up the phone, then engaged in a conversation with his campaign aides, venting his frustration that his refusal to concede to an exemption for police officers in his state pension reform proposal could cost him their endorsements. When the repartee turned to the discussion of releasing an advertisement blasting Whitman for this compromise, an aide interjects by asking if they should say that she is a whore. Brown, in response, said, "Whore. Well, I am going to use that." [27] While acknowledging the conversation took place, a spokesman for the Brown campaign argued that the gubernatorial candidate "was responding to the notion of accusing Whitman of cutting a deal to gain endorsements, not to the use of the word 'whore,'" though the tape itself seems to suggest otherwise. [28]
Attorney General of California (2007-2011)
In early 2004, Brown expressed interest in running forAttorney General of California in the 2006 election. On May 18, 2004, he formally filed the necessary papers to begin his campaign for the nomination, including a sworn declaration with the statement "I meet the statutory and constitutional qualifications for this office (including, but not limited to, citizenship, residency, and party affiliation, if required)."
Brown had an active Democratic primary opponent, Los Angeles City Attorney Rocky Delgadillo. Delgadillo put most of his money into TV ads attacking Brown and spent $4.1 million on the primary campaign. Regardless, Brown easily defeated Delgadillo, 63% to 37%. [29] In the general election, Brown defeated Republican State Senator Charles Poochigian 56.3% to 38.2%, which was the largest margin of victory in any statewide race except in the United States Senate in which Dianne Feinstein's opponent did not mount a strong challenge. [30]
As the Attorney General of California, Brown brought suits against Standard Oil of California, International Telephone and Telegraph, Gulf Oil, and Mobil for violation of campaign-finance laws, often arguing in person before the California State Supreme Court, and enforcing laws requiring members of the California State Legislature to disclose sources of campaign funds. He played a significant role in the drafting and passage of Proposition 9 - The California Fair Political Practices Act, which established the California Fair Political Practices Commission (CFPPC). The mission of the CFPPC is to investigate alleged violations of the Political Reform Act, impose penalties when appropriate, and assist state and local agencies in developing and enforcing conflict-of-interest codes.
State public employee pension
Brown stole the California political spotlight in late-July 2010 when he laid into the governmental employees of Bell, a city located outside Los Angeles that is one of the poorest in the state, after the Los Angeles Times "reported that the city manager makes almost $800K a year and stands to receive a pension worth $30 million." [31] He called the outlandish salaries "shocking and beyond belief" and called for a full scale investigation into the matter. [32] As a state public employee himself, however, local political watchdog groups question whether Brown's words and actions in this regard are a bit hypocritical.
Overseen by the California Public Employees' Retirement System, also known as CalPERS, the Legislators' Retirement System (LRS), established in 1947, operates as a special pension program for elected constitutional officers, legislative statutory officers, and members of the state legislature prior to November 7, 1990. The LRS operated in relative obscurity until the passage of Proposition 140 in 1990, which limited the number of terms that California state senators and representatives can stay in office and, perhaps most importantly in regards to this issue, eliminated pensions for state lawmakers. As a result, only thirteen working public officials are members of the independent pension program. Still, even in light of this attempt at local governmental reform, the law "prevents" either CalPERS or LRS from answering questions pertaining to specific members.
In spite of this obstacle, the Orange County Watchdog combed through the LRS actuarial statements and found an individual who matches Jerry Brown's age and salary. If this is indeed Jerry Brown, there appears to be a discrepancy in the records according to the Watchdog. The LRS has this person listed as having served twenty-five to twenty-nine years in public office; again, if this is Brown, he should only have sixteen years of service. Sterling Clifford, a spokesman for the Brown gubernatorial campaign, claims that neither he nor the attorney general's office know what is going on here. He did, however, note that Brown "started receiving an annual pension of about $20,000 when he turned 60 in 1998 and pocketed it every year until he assumed the attorney general's office, when it was suspended." [33] What is at issue here are tens of thousands of state taxpayer dollars - if he served sixteen years, Brown's annual LRS pension salary would come to $73,720; if, however, it was twenty-five years or more, as LRS actuarial statements appear to suggest, it would be $110,580. This comes to a difference of $36,860.
Proposition 8
- See also: California Proposition 8 (2008)
Though the attorney general of a state normally argues in support of laws that have been passed by the electorate, Brown took the unusual, and extremely controversial, step of declining to defend Proposition 8, a voter-approved amendment to the state constitution that banned same-sex marriage. Filing his own legal challenge against the amendment, Brown came to the conclusion that Proposition 8 "deprives people of the right to marry, an aspect of liberty that the Supreme Court has concluded is guaranteed by the California Constitution." [34] [35]
On May 26, 2009, the California State Supreme Court surprisingly voted 6-1 to uphold Proposition 8 on state constitutional grounds.
In spite of this ruling, however, Brown continues to oppose defending the law, arguing in front of a federal court that the initiative "violates federal due process and equal protection guarantees" promised in the Fourteenth Amendment. [36]
CEI rating
In an analysis of state attorneys general published in July 2010, Brown was named "The Nation's Worst Attorney General" by the Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI), a non-profit public policy organization dedicated to the principles of free enterprise and limited government. Basing their criteria on dubious dealings, fabricating law, usurping legislative power, and predatory practices, the California Attorney General, who at the time of the publication was a gubernatorial candidate, received a letter grade of F in all four categories. CEI accused Brown his responsibility as state attorney general to defend all state laws against constitutional challenges "by picking and choosing which laws to defend, and even seeking to undermine those he disagreed with," such as Proposition 8. [37]
Ballot titles
In October 2009, Brown was accused of re-writing the ballot title for the California Continuous Coverage Auto Insurance Discount Act (2010) in a way that is more advantageous to that initiative after receiving a $13,000 campaign contribution from Mercury Insurance, its main sponsor. [38]
Mayor of Oakland (1999-2007)
In early 1998, Brown announced that he was leaving the Democratic Party and changed his party registration to "Decline To State." He terminated his radio show that same year in order to run for Mayor of Oakland. He won the general election contest in June 1998 and seven months later was sworn into office. Within just a few short weeks, he drew the ire of the far left after he invited the United States Marine Corps to stage their war games, titled Urban Warrior, in the defunct Oakland Army Base and on the closed grounds of the Oak Knoll Naval Hospital after the National Park Service rejected the Marines' request to use Crissy Field in San Francisco. Also during his tenure he was able to get the approval of the electorate to convert Oakland's weak mayor political structure (the mayor as chairman of the city council and official greeter) to a strong mayor structure (the mayor as chief executive over the nonpolitical city manager and thus the various city departments and not a council member). This strong mayor structure in many ways is similar to that of the nearby city of San Francisco. Other efforts including acquiring millions of dollars in state and federal funding to open two charter schools that are now among the top-ranked in Oakland. Brown was re-elected with over 60 percent of the vote in 2002.
In 2003, Brown and fellow Democratic Mayor Jim Hahn of Los Angeles praised Republican Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger for his decisive actions regarding the suppression of the reinstitution of portions the vehicle license fee (labeled by opponents as the car tax) and some restoration of state funding for city governments, implying that Gray Davis (who had been Governor Brown's Chief of Staff in the 1970s) had acted poorly in this regard.
Crime rate in Oakland
The murder rate in Oakland in the first two months of 2006 was triple what it was during the same time period the year before. [39] Two years later, the CQ Press annual report ranked Oakland the fifth-highest crime rate among U.S. cities in 2007. [40] These statistics have led critics to suggest that Brown had failed as mayor to make the city safer. [41]
Chairman of the California Democratic Party (1989-1991)
After briefly studying abroad, Brown returned to California and successfully ran for the chairmanship of the state's Democratic Party in 1989, defeating the less experienced Steve Westly. Although he had greatly expanded the party's donor base and enlarged its coffers during his tenure, he was criticized for not spending enough money on television advertisements, which many within the state party contributed for close Democratic losses in 1990. Brown abruptly resigned from the chairmanship in early 1991 and announced he would seek the United States Senate seat left open following the retirement of Democratic Senator Alan Cranston. In spite of consistent polls numbers, he abandoned his senatorial campaign in favor of a third attempt at the presidency.
Governor of California (1975-1983)
Brown was sworn into office as Governor of California in 1975, succeeding outgoing Republican (and future President of the United States) Ronald Reagan. Strongly opposed to the Vietnam War, Brown rode into the governorship on a broad base of young liberal support. Upon election, he refused many of the privileges and trappings of the office, forgoing the grand governor's mansion, which he sold off in 1983, and instead rented a modest apartment. Instead of riding as a passenger in chauffeured limousines as previous governors had done, Brown drove himself to work in a compact sedan - a Plymouth Satellite from the state vehicle pool.
Throughout his tenure in office, Brown expressed a strong interest in environmental issues, which were to be highlighted in the state during the course of the decade. Brown's concern for the environment could seen in his appointments to state positions that directly affected it. His selections included J. Baldwin for the then-newly created California Office of Appropriate Technology, Sim Van der Ryn as State Architect, Stewart Brand as Special Advisor, and John Bryson, the CEO of Southern California Electric Company and a founding member of the Natural Resources Defense Council, chairman of the California State Water Board in 1976.
It was also in the course of his first governorship that he dissolved the fifteen member California Arts Commission and reorganized it into the California Arts Council (CAC), boosting its state funding by as much as 1,300 percent. This became a source of contention during the state's frequent budget crises at the turn of the century, beginning in 2001 when, under Governor Grey Davis, the CAC received $30 million from state coffers. [42] Additionally, Brown, as governor, appointed the first black (Wiley Manuel), woman (Rose Bird), and Latino (Cruz Reynoso) to the California State Supreme Court.
Brown often proposed unorthodox ideas, including the establishment of a state space academy and the purchasing of a satellite that would be launched into orbit to provide emergency communications for the state—a proposal similar to one that would indeed be adopted by the state. In 1978, Chicago Tribune columnist Mike Royko nicknamed Brown "Governor Moonbeam" because of the latter idea. The nickname quickly became associated with his quirky politics, which were considered eccentric by some in California and the rest of the nation. In 1992, almost 15 years later, Royko would disavow the nickname, proclaiming Brown to be "just as serious" as any other politician. He also obtained the repeal of the depletion allowance for the state's oil industry thanks in large part to the decisive vote cast in the California State Senate by Republican Robert S. Stevens. Stevens was later rewarded with a major judicial appointment, which he had to rescind after he was accused of making salacious telephone calls as a state senator.
Proposition 13
- See also: California Proposition 13 (1978)
Critics argue that Brown's administration as Governor of California bares partial responsibility for the creation of the economic conditions that prompted state voters to heavily favor the passage of Proposition 13 in 1978. Specifically, he is said to have amassed a large surplus in state coffers instead of cutting taxes, leading to the state's infamous tax rebellion, the Jarvis Gann initiative (Proposition 13) which halted increases in property taxes for both homeowners and corporations that held onto their property. [43] However, even with the passage of Proposition 13, "state spending increased by nearly 120 percent during the Brown years after" it became state law. [44]
Unsuccessful Presidential campaigns
In the course of serving as Governor of California, Brown twice ran for the Democratic nomination for President of the United States. The first time was in 1976 when he entered the race very late in the primary season as the focus of the movement shifted to stop the nomination of former Governor of Georgia Jimmy Carter, who many within the Democratic Party felt was unelectable and lacked the record of success needed to garner popular appeal.
Brown touted his record of having supposedly curbed the state's spending and balanced its budget while expanding services in the area of welfare, employment, and consumer and environmental protection, Brown proclaimed his belief that there would soon be a voter backlash against expansive and costly government policies. "This is an era of limits, and we had all better get used to it," he declared. He won major victories in Maryland, Nevada, and his home state of California in the early primary ballot contests. He also garnered the support of a majority of delegates from Louisiana, the only Southern state in the course of the primary campaign to favor either Carter or Governor of Alabama George Wallace. And despite missing the deadline in Oregon, which resulted in him campaigning as a a write-in candidate, he finished a strong third behind both Carter and Senator Frank Church of Idaho. In spite of these successes, he was unable to stall Carter's momentum, and his rival was nominated on the first ballot at the 1976 Democratic National Convention. Brown finished a distant third with roughly 300 delegate votes.
Brown ran for president a second time in 1980. Even with the high level of anticipation his candidacy amassed, particularly in light of his re-election victory in the state of California's gubernatorial contest by 1.3 million votes, the largest margin of victory for a candidate in the state's history, his presidential campaign failed to gain any traction. Many believed this was largely due to the more prominent candidacy of Senator Ted Kennedy of Massachusetts and the prestige his family name brought to the campaign.
His promise to, in his words, "Protect the Earth, serve the people, and explore the universe," served as his slogan. The three main planks of his presidential campaign platform included a call for a constitutional convention to ratify the Balanced Budget Amendment, a promise to increase federal funds for the space program, and, in the wake of the 1979 Three Mile Island accident, opposition to nuclear power. Brown also made a number of unconventional proposals as well, such as calling for a sharp increase of federal funding for solar power research, endorsing the idea of mandatory non-military national service for the nation's youth, and promising to support a market-oriented system of universal health care.
Support for his campaign among average American Democrats quickly eroded as more and more members of the what conservative commentators called "fringe", such as Jane Fonda, Tom Hayden, and Jesse Jackson, among others, joined his cause. Following his disastrous showing in the New Hampshire primary, in which he able to receive ten percent of the vote, he was forced to announce that his candidacy hinged on a good showing in the Wisconsin primary. An ill-timed attempt at filming a live, special effects-filled, thirty-minute commercial, produced and directed by Francis Ford Coppola, was a disaster and ultimately doomed his candidacy. He walked away from the campaign having received just twelve percent of the vote in the Wisconsin primary. Despite having entered the race far earlier then his original attempt at the presidential office, his second effort resulted in him having spent $2 million while winning no primaries and receiving only one delegate at the Democratic National Convention.
In the wake of his announcement declaring his candidacy for president on the steps of Independence Hall in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, many within both the mainstream news outlets and the Democratic Party itself dismissed his campaign as nothing short of an ego-trip with little, if any, chance of gaining legit support worthy of significance in the primary contest. Ignoring his critics, Brown, correctly gauging the anti-establishment viewpoint of many voters that year, joined Pat Buchanan and Ross Perot who all enjoyed surprisingly successful presidential campaigns. He embarked on an ultra-grassroots campaign - declaring that he would only accept individual campaign contributions of $100 or less - the likes of which would not be seen within the Democratic Party until the early days of Governor of Vermont Howard Dean's ultimately unsuccessful presidential bid.
He made a number of populist-based promises in the midst of the campaign, including calls for term limits for members of Congress, living wage laws, and opposition to free-trade agreements such as NAFTA. Brown joined with economist and former Reagan adviser Arthur Laffer in drafting his tax proposal, which called for the replacement of the progressive income tax with a flat tax and a value added tax, both at a fixed rate of thirteen percent. Despite criticism from his opponents that his policy was regressive, it received the endorsement of major media outlets such as The New York Times, The New Republic, and Forbes.
Faced with a relatively shoe-string campaign budget, Brown bucked conventional advertising practices, choosing instead to use an unusual fundraising techniques, such as a toll-free telephone number that adorned all of his campaign material, and a mixture of alternative media that included cable and radio interviews being used in lieu of traditional television commercials in order to get his message out to voters.
In spite of poor showings in the Iowa caucus, in which he received a mere 1.6 percent of the vote, and the New Hampshire primary, which secured him only eight percent, Brown was soon able to manage narrow victories in Maine, Colorado, Nevada, Alaska, and Vermont. Nonetheless, he continued to be considered a long shot for much of the campaign. It was not until shortly after Super Tuesday, when the Democratic primary field had been narrowed to Brown, former Senator Paul Tsongas of Massachusetts, and frontrunner Governor Bill Clinton, that Brown began to emerge as a serious contender in the eyes of the mainstream media.
Senator Tsongas was forced out of the race on March 17 after Brown received a strong third-place showing in the Illinois primary and then defeated the senator for second place in the Michigan primary by a significant margin. Within one week, Brown had cemented his position as a major threat to Clinton's candidacy when he eked out a narrow win the bitterly-contested Connecticut primary. This, however, was short lived after Clinton pulled out victories in both Wisconsin and New York on April 7.
Although Brown continued to campaign in a number of other states, he won no further primary contests. Despite this, he had secured a sizable number of convention delegates. A big win in his home state of California he believed would deprive Clinton of sufficient support to guarantee the nomination, which would then result in a brokered convention. After nearly a month of intense campaigning and multiple debates between the two candidates, Clinton managed to defeat Brown in this final primary by a margin of 48% to 41%. At the Democratic National Convention, Brown received the votes of 596 delegates on the first ballot, more than any other candidate save for Clinton.
California Secretary of State (1971-1975)
Los Angeles Community College Board of Trustees (1969-1971)
Throughout the late-1960s, Brown was active in both state and national politics, organizing migrant workers and anti-Vietnam War groups. In 1969, he ran for his political office position on the then-newly created Los Angeles Community College Board of Trustees, which oversaw community colleges in the city. Brown went on to place first in the field of one-hundred twenty-four candidates. The next year, he successfully campaigned to be California Secretary of State.

Although he filed official paperwork with the Secretary of State Office in late-September 2009 to start an exploratory committee, usually the first step in launching a formal campaign, Brown had yet to make his entry into the state's 2010 gubernatorial contest official as late as February 2010. And in spite of the passage of California Proposition 140, which, among other things, imposes a lifelong ban against anyone seeking the same office once the limits have been reached, Brown's candidacy is not effected on the basis that the amendment does not apply to former governors who served prior to its passage in 1990.
In January 2010, Brown said that whoever is elected, they face a challenging term in office: ""The state is profoundly screwed up, and anybody who thinks they got an idea, I would say, 'Give me a call, I'd like to listen to it.' Because I can tell you we're in for blood, sweat and tears over the next four years no matter who runs." [45]
A Rasmussen poll published in mid-February 2010 showed that in a head-to-head matchup the California gubernatorial contest in November between Brown and the likely Republican nominee, former eBay CEO Meg Whitman, would be a virtual dead heat with each candidate garnering forty-three percent. The survey, however, also points out that six percent of those interviewed selected other primary candidates and eight percent were undecided, leaving plenty of opportunity for either major party candidate to take the lead. [46]
On Tuesday, March 2, 2010, Brown finally announced on his website that he was officially entering the 2010 California gubernatorial election contest. [47] Over a month later, Rasmussen, whose survey two months earlier had shown a virtual dead heat between Whitman and Brown, released polling data that placed the State Attorney General with a six-point margin of victory over his likely Republican challenger. However, nine percent of those interviewed chose a different candidate other then Brown and Whitman while another nine percent remained undecided. [48]

In the final weeks leading up to the State Attorney General election in 2006, Brown's eligibility as a candidate was questioned by his Republican challenger, Contra Costa County Republican Central Committee chairman and state GOP vice-chair candidate Tom Del Beccaro. Citing California Government Code §12503, which states that "no person shall be eligible to the office of Attorney General unless he shall have been admitted to practice before the Supreme Court of the state for a period of at least five years immediately preceding his election or appointment to such office," Republican plaintiffs in the case argued that Brown did not meet these basic requirements. [50] Since passing the bar exam in June 1965, "Brown on several occasions over the past four decades failed to renew his membership and was rendered inactive," renewing it just three years prior to entering the state attorney general contest. [51] The case was eventually thrown out after the court acknowledged that although he was ineligible to practice law because of his voluntary 'inactive status' in the State Bar of California from January 1, 1997 to May 1, 2003, he was nevertheless still "admitted to practice."

DIXON — After Dixon defeated Jones Senior 53-47 Friday night for its fourth straight Coastal Plains 1-A Conference victory, coach Philip Durr had one word for how it felt.
"Awesome!" he said.
Indeed, mark it down: The Bulldogs (7-15, 4-4) are making some noise down the stretch with consecutive league wins over Lejeune, Southwest, Pamlico and Jones Senior (7-12, 3-5) and are tied for third in the
Dixon travels to league-leader East Carteret (17-5, 7-1) on Tuesday and returns home to face Lejeune (1-20, 0-8) on Friday, which means at least a .500 finish in the league is at likely for a program that has struggled in recent years.
For now, however, the Bulldogs just wanted to celebrate polishing off a night in which both their varsity teams and junior varsity boys' squad all won, which one school official said was the first time that's happened in two decades.
Dixon's girls beat Jones Senior 53-48.
"This is big. This hasn't happened in a long time from what I've heard. I just haven't seen any of teams in the past do any of this," said junior Daniel Page, who scored 16 points and pulled down 19 rebounds. "So I'm really happy. I know the whole team is excited.
"We really wanted the game bad. We knew what we had to do to get it done, and we just did what we needed to do."
Dixon scored the first seven points of the game for its biggest lead until it led 52-44 in the final minute. The Bulldogs were up 31-26 at halftime after Zack Sicknick scored on a layup at the buzzer and was fouled. He hit the foul shot.
But the Trojans rallied, outscoring the Bulldogs 15-6 to open the second half to go up 41-37 on a bucket by Glen White with 1:27 left.
That, however, was it for Jones Senior.
Dixon went on a decisive 15-3 surge that included Jones Senior pulling the ball out on the perimeter to try to force Dixon out of its 1-3-1 or 3-2 zone early in the fourth quarter — to no avail.
"What they did is they took the impetus away from themselves," Durr said. "They tried to take us out of our game and what they did take them out of their game. I told our guys not to go out."
With the score tied at 41 and the Trojans still in their delay game, Sicknick stole the ball and Trent Marshburn turned it into a follow bucket with 5:30 left in the game, giving the Bulldogs the lead for good.
Marshburn finished with 11 points and 9 rebounds.
After a 3-pointer that missed everything by the Trojans, Page scored on a follow with 4:52 left to push the lead to four.
Moments later the Bulldogs pulled off one of the highlights of the run, a long inbounds baseball pass from Jaylen Mitchell to Sicknick, who is a catcher on the baseball team. Sicknick caught the pass in stride about the foul line extended had scored on a layup for a 47-42 lead with 1:41 left.
The play is called "Bulldog," and Durr said he called it when he saw how Jones Senior was deploying its defense.
"It's when teams get real tight on us up out our baseline," he said. "We do a circle route and we sent our fastest man down and throw a pass down court and you can see how it ended up."
Marshburn made it 50-44 with a three-point play with 53.9 seconds left and Page then hit two foul shots for a 52-44 lead with 31.2 seconds left to seal the win.
Eric Dudley and Miguel Jones led Jones Senior with 11 points apiece.
Dixon 53, Jones Senior 48: In a game in which five players fouled out and featured a combined 57 turnovers and 140 field goal attempts — of which only 35 were made, Dixon outlasted Jones Senior, surviving a 15-2 third-quarter run by the Trojans.
"We had to have this win, had to have it to stay fourth with the possibility of being tied for third," said coach Christel Caliguire, whose club is tied for fourth with East Carteret, one game back of third-place Southwest with a week left in the regular season. "We lost the last two. We were ready for a win."
Miranda Davis led Dixon (9-13, 3-5) with 17 points, including three 3-pointers, along with eight rebounds while Corkie Aquafredda had a double-double with 13 points and 13 rebounds. Jones Senior, which had 33 turnovers, was led by Franlena Brimage with 16 and Latrina Gatling with 13.
Dixon used its defense to offset the Trojans' dominance of the boards as well as a strong finish that saw the Bulldogs took the lead for good at 37-36 with 8.5 seconds left in the third quarter on a layup by Aquafredda off an assist from Carly Rochelle.
The Bulldogs stretched their lead to seven in the final eight minutes, the last time at 49-42 with2:40 left after a 3-pointer by Davis and one of two foul shots by Aquafredda. Jones Senior (4-15, 0-8) never got closer than four after that.
Caliguire said her Bulldogs have improved from early in the season.
"They have built some confidence," she said. "They work well together as a team. I do not have one ball hog. Our plays are designed for that. And we've always focused on defense. My phrase is you may not always have a good offensive game, but you can always play good defense."

Mike Licona is one of my favorite Christian apologists, and here is an excellent lecture to show you why.
In the lecture, he explains why the four biographies in the New Testament should be accepted as historically accurate: (55 minutes)
- What a Baltimore Ravens helmet teaches us about the importance of truth
- What happens to Christians when they go off to university?
- The 2007 study on attitudes of American professors to evangelical Christians
- Authors: Who wrote the gospels?
- Bias: Did the bias of the authors cause them to distort history?
- Contradictions: What about the different descriptions of events in the gospels?
- Dating: When were the gospels written?
- Eyewitnesses: Do the gospel accounts go back to eyewitness testimony?
This is basic training for Christians. They ought to show this lecture whenever new people show up, because pastors should not quote the Bible until everyone listening has this information straight.

More pets are lost on the Fourth of July than any other time of year. It's a heartbreaking scenario for pet parents, but swift action and major networking can increase the odds that you will be reunited with your cat or dog.
We recently surveyed more than 1,000 households with pets across the country to find out if they had lost a dog or cat in the past five years—and if they did, did they find that pet and where did they look?
Of those pet guardians surveyed, 15 percent had lost a dog or a cat in the past five years, and 85 percent of those lost dogs and cats were recovered.
The study's findings suggest the following are key when recovering a lost pet:
- Searching immediately when one knows the pet is lost;
- Searching within the neighborhood first through visual searches as well as posters and online; and
- Checking local shelters from the first day your pet is lost.
If your pet is lost, it's important not to panic. Enlist the help of all of your friends and neighbors and hit the streets! Read our extended article on Finding a Lost Pet for more information and helpful hints.
Lost my dog Onyx on 6/26/12 at my home. He is a neutered male black lab approximately 7 to 8 years old. Wearing orange collar with tags. Has Avid chip. Lost in the Wenona, Illinois. If found, please call 815-853-7054 and leave a message. Thank You! SANDY BIGGER
I found my dog within three days of him wandering off my property (he was old, almost blind - something I didn't know at the time & was looking for my daughter - "his baby" - who was visiting her father out of town. Thankfully, I found him on Craigs List after driving through and around my neighborhood with no luck. I also recently found a little dog in the middle of the street at night following someone who wasn't his owner - I opended my car door and in he jumped. He spent the night with us, but was promply reunited with his Very Happy owners the next morn. It works! Also call All the shelters you can ....... Good luck
I also recommend contacting your local police department immediately. As in other comments, please make sure your pet has ID tags on, if not a name tag and phone number, at least the license and/or rabies tag I have found a number of dogs with only their license tag/rabies tag on, however, they have been returned to the owner via those modalities as well.
Yes! As an animal control officer working through a police department, PLEASE contact us first thing. If you call us the moment you notice your animal missing, we can sometimes get out there to help you search. I've found many missing dogs this way with many tearful happy reunions. I've also picked up many dogs at large who go unclaimed until days later when someone calls to tell me their dog has been missing a week. Call us!
I lost my cat at a remote vet office two years ago a week before the 4th. I was heartbroken but knew the statistics--only about 3% of lost cats get returned. I posted flyers, talked to EVERY neighbor within a mile (about 25), walked the roads, drove further. Checked at houses with other cats/dogs. And offered a reward. Used Tabbytracker.com, used the newspaper, not just called but VISITED each local shelter/sanctuary. And 7 days later a neighbor of the vets called and sure enough Bob came bounding back into my arms. Never give up, it doesn't take all that much time or effort--nothing could ever be too much. You've taken responsibility for a life, make sure you do all you can to save it.
Well done finding your lost kitty! You did a lot of things that Missing Pet Partnership recommends...unless they are chased, many cats do not go far from home, but they will not respond to calls form their owners until they are so hungry and thirsty that they can no longer stand it! And that can be 10-14 days, or longer! Don't give up!
We just created a free iPhone app that lets you update your pet's tag at any time -- even after it's lost! Support us with a quick vote so we can get it into the app store!! http://evr.pt/devcup
Another resource is http://MissingCritters.com -- free, easy instructions to email/upload a picture via your cell phone. See instructions for both individuals and shelters.
microchipping is so important, but also you should make daily trips to local shelters to see if your pet is there. We have found our local shelter does not always scan for a chip and can give you wrong info about your pet's status if you call. They may have your pet and say they don't. They euthanize after 7 days. Vital to be very proactive.

A woman in New York suffered broken bones when her 50-year-old son intentionally drove his Chevrolet Tahoe into her living room, running her over. "He drove right in," said a relative, "like it was a garage."

I think we MAY cool down a bit, but only little things like Gravy's shooting and perhaps we get a little sloppy.
But I think he continues to be solid and make good decisions, and no WAY Davis comes out of his break soft. I think it was probably killing him to have to sit and watch that Bulls game on TV. Anderson has a (already after 3 games lol) classic hot game after his 1/7 game in Chicago, and Smith stays aggressive. I think we see Aminu cool down a bit and go more like 10/7 instead of beast mode like he's been on.

SIMON BORCHARDT saw the Reds beat the Waratahs 32-16 in Brisbane to finish top of the Australian conference.
After the Brumbies' defeat to the Blues, the Reds had to win their final league fixture and score four tries to finish third on the combined log. They achieved their goal, although three of their five tries were a result of mistakes from the Waratahs, who have lost their last eight matches.
The Super Rugby champions will now host a play-off qualifier in Brisbane next weekend against the team that finishes sixth on the combined log, while the Brumbies need the Bulls or Sharks to slip up on Saturday if they are to reach the play-offs.
The Reds made the ideal start to this crucial fixture when a botched lineout saw Will Genia send the ball wide to Scott Higginbotham, who got on the outside of Tatafu Polota-Nau to score in the corner.
However, it was the visitors who dominated possession and territory for the remainder of the first quarter. Berrick Barnes kicked a penalty and Chris Alcock was desperately unlucky not to score a try after charging down Genia's kick (Dom Shipperley got a boot to the ball just before the Waratahs flanker could apply downward pressure).
Liam Gill scored the Reds second try moments after Tahs prop Paddy Ryan had been sent to the sin bin for a professional foul, but the visitors hit back through Drew Mitchell, who chased down Bernard Foley's kick into the in-goal area.
While Foley missed the conversion, Adam Ashley-Cooper kicked a long-range drop goal to make it 12-11 at half-time.
But the Tahs imploded again early in the second half when Polota-Nau's wayward lineout throw was poached by James Slipper, who scored his side's third try. Five minutes later, Mitchell knocked on inside his 22 after a poor pass from Barnes and Shipperley picked up the loose ball to score the bonus-point try.
Genia extended the Reds' lead to 18 with a try in the corner, before they were reduced to 14 men when Quade Cooper was yellow carded for a dangerous tackle on Barnes.
Tom Carter then scored a consolation try for the Waratahs with seven minutes to go, but Harris sealed the win with a late penalty.

About Strayer
At Strayer University, we've been educating working adults since 1892. That's over 120 years of helping people earn their degrees and advance their lives.
Today, we know working adults are busier than ever. That's why we make education work with their schedule. Not the other way around. We offer convenient campus locations close to home or work in many states across the country, evening and weekend campus hours, and the flexibility to learn online, anytime.
And we're not just flexible. We're accredited, respected, and recognized.
The Middle States Commission on Higher Education, the same organization that accredits universities like Georgetown, Columbia, Temple, Gettysburg College, Johns Hopkins University, Morgan State University, Syracuse University, and the University of Maryland, accredits Strayer University.
Our student services, on-campus environment, online flexibility, and regional accreditation have helped over 100,000 students earn their undergraduate and graduate degrees. Now it's your turn.
In the late 1800's, Dr. S. Irving Strayer realized that the business world was evolving. And that education wasn't keeping up. Working adults needed a focused education to help them further their careers and advance their lives. So, in 1892, he founded Strayer's Business College of Baltimore City.
120 years later, Strayer University is one of the largest accredited universities in America. Our campuses can be found in cities and suburbs across the country. We're also a leading online educator. In fact, we've been offering online courses since 1996. And we're still focused on educating adults with full-time careers, part-time jobs, active military service, and U.S. veteran status. That part will never change.
What's the role of a leader? Well, at Strayer University, our administrators, Board of Trustees, and Board of Directors are responsible for the strategic vision and financial strength of the University.
Why does that matter to you? Because their leadership ensures we stay true to our mission of providing an education that works for working adults. They make certain we're providing our students with constant and meaningful support, highly esteemed faculty, and continuously enhanced technology.
They're charged with not just seeing where higher education is going, but leading the way. Because at the end of the day, their job is to make sure the degree you earn makes a real difference.
College Alliances
We make it simple for students at two-year colleges to transfer credits seamlessly.
Corporate Alliances
Strayer has alliances with many leading corporations to provide specially tailored continuing education programs.
We proudly welcome students who have served or are currently serving our country through the armed forces.

Rated 5 out of 5 by SLIPPERS2 from Stunning!! Purchased 2 of them for our master bath. Because they are raised, they look like pieces of artwork! The white sets off the white in the marble. The rim keeps the water inside the bowl and not on the countertop. Everyone LOVES them!

In this Article
What is pernicious anemia?
Anemia is a condition in which the body does not have a sufficient number of red blood cells or hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is present within red blood cells and is important for carrying oxygen to all tissues of the body. In males, anemia is typically defined as hemoglobin level of less than 13.5 gram/100ml, while in women, a hemoglobin level of less than 12.0 gram/100ml is considered to be indicative of anemia. These definitions may vary slightly depending on the source and the laboratory reference used. Pernicious is a term that means destructive, injurious or deadly.
Anemia can result from disruptions in the production of red blood cells or hemoglobin as well as from an increased destruction of red blood cells or loss of blood.
Pernicious anemia is a disease where large, immature, nucleated cells (megaloblasts, which are forerunners of red blood cells) circulate in the blood, and do not function as blood cells; it is a disease caused by impaired uptake of vitamin B-12 due to the lack of intrinsic factor (IF) in the gastric mucosa. It was termed "pernicious" because before it was learned that vitamin B-12 could treat the anemia, most people that developed the disease died from it.
Pernicious anemia is due to an inability to absorb vitamin B-12 (also known as cobalamin or Cbl) from the gastrointestinal tract. Humans get vitamin B-12 from animal products; both meat and dairy products are dietary sources of vitamin B-12. The body is able to store vitamin B-12 for a long time, so inadequate dietary intake must persist for years before a true deficiency of vitamin B-12 is reached. Therefore, the symptoms of pernicious anemia usually do not appear for years. While pernicious anemia is most commonly diagnosed in adults with an average age of 60, a rare, congenital (inborn) type of pernicious anemia has been described.
As with other causes of anemia, symptoms related to decreased oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood can include tiredness and shortness of breath. Vitamin B-12 deficiency also interferes with the function of the nervous system, and symptoms due to nervous system damage may be apparent even before the anemia is discovered.
Pernicious anemia is most common in Caucasian persons of northern European ancestry than in other racial groups. Pernicious anemia is also termed Biermer's or Addison's anemia.

NEWORLEANS - The doors opened at the polls at 6 a.m. on Tuesday.
Residents that did not cast an early ballot may run into some long lines on election day.
Officials are expecting a large turnout across the city.
Election personnel asked residents to come prepared for the complicated ballot.
'We just encourage people to come as informed as they can, make an opinion, because it's not only the constitutional amendments. It's also the Mississippi River Bridge/Crescent City Connection tolls, as well as in Jefferson, president and congress. In Kenner, you have two charter changes. So again, encourage people to become informed before you show up to vote. It will speed up the whole process,'said Dennis DiMarco of the Jefferson Parish Registrar of Voters.
Polls are open for 14 hours and close at 8 p.m. across Louisiana.
Anyone that encounters any activity that may be irregular at the polls should contact Louisiana's Election Fraud Hotline at 1-800-722-5305. Residents can report election day voter fraud, vote buying or voter intimidation.
Get a detailed look at your local ballot, information on polling places and on the constitutional amendments and other local races and issues on www.wwltv.com.
Election coverage starts at 5 p.m. on WWLTV. Once the polls close, WWLTV will have local updates and results on the bottom of your screen throughout the night and full coverage on the Eyewitness News at 10 p.m.
Updated election results can be found on www.wwltv.com and on WWLTV's mobile apps for smart phones and iPads.
