Trivia
Defending his support of a military charter school in Oakland, California, Jerry Brown told KQED reporter Stephen Talbot, "I believe that had I been sent to the military academy, as my mother and father threatened, I would have been president a long time ago."

It was a vintage Brown quote - at once self-aggrandizing and self-mocking.
