Larry ElderHOST

John RothmannHOST
But as someone who has opposed the death penalty my whole life, and I have opposed the death penalty my whole life, and I'll explain that to you, the first political demonstration I ever participated in was to protest the execution of Carol Chessman.
John RothmannHOST
That protest notorious case when Governor Brown, Governor Edmund G. Pat Brown Sr., decided to allow the execution to go forward, even though he opposed the execution.
John RothmannHOST
And it's very interesting.

Interestingly enough, the Republican Party in California made a decisive choice.
John RothmannHOST
they accepted Ronald Reagan as the candidate for governor.
John RothmannHOST
And although I did not support Reagan, I supported Pat Brown in an effort to win a third term.
John RothmannHOST
The important element here is that, and you must understand this, is the Republicans themselves chose what direction to go in.
Larry ElderHOST
The Republicans nominated a man named Barry Goldwater.
Larry ElderHOST
And the then governor of California, Pat Brown, the father of Jerry Brown, during the 1964 Republican Convention, Goldwater gets nominated.

You know what Brown said? Quote, the stench of fascism is in the air.

Martin WhittockGUEST
I thought about Richard Nixon from America in 1962.
Martin WhittockGUEST
He lost the Californian gubernatorial election to Pat Brown.
Martin WhittockGUEST

Martin WhittockGUEST
You won't have Nixon to kick around anymore.
Ashe in AmericaHOST
The morning after losing the race for governor of California in 1962, quote, you don't have Nixon to kick around anymore because, gentlemen, this is my last press conference.

Robert De Niro got to New York ahead of time and took a job driving a cab at night.

David RuckhausenHOST
One commenter, after hearing the now-presidential candidate utter that famous line, murmured, "...my God, he's gonna run as Barry Goldwater!" California Governor Pat Brown, a Democrat, would tell reporters, quote, Goldwater's acceptance speech had the stench of fascism.
David RuckhausenHOST
All we needed to hear was Heil Hitler, end quote.
David RuckhausenHOST
Eisenhower called Goldwater after the speech and asked him to come to his hotel the next day where he greeted him with, quote, Barry, what the hell did you mean last night about extremism? I couldn't make any sense out of it and I thought it was a damn silly thing to say, end quote.
