In reply to the discussion: California Gov. Jerry Brown Endorses Hillary Clinton [View all]JDPriestly
(57,936 posts)They are for Bernie. Jerry Brown isn't even a name to most Bernie supporters who are, many, many of them new to politics.
I like Jerry Brown but he is wrong about Hillary (although for political purposes I can understand why he is now endorsing her -- a rather late endorsement probably also due to political considerations) and about fracking. Also appointed some lousy people to the Coastal Commission and a couple of other commissions.
But generally, he saved California from destitution by placing a ballot measure to raise taxes and repay our debts after the disastrous borrow and spend regime of Schwarzenegger.
Nobody is right all the time. That goes for Jerry Brown.
He is quite wrong about Hillary.
I'm glad that he waited until the very last minute to make this politically calculated endorsement. Californian's see through this.
Hillary has a lot of power and will wield it to harm people who don't endorse her.
Bernie has the people and a lot of love.
We shall see whether power trumps love or love trumps power.
Apparently in so far as Jerry Brown is concerned, power trumps love which could mean that Trump trumps in November. Sorry to say that but it is true.
