...hold on the voters. "Frankly," he confides, "I think I'm closer to the people of California than anyone since Hiram Johnson." Then he asks: "Don't you think so?" He worries about being liked, he worries about being disliked, and he worries constantly about being understood. "You know," says Pat Brown, "in all the things that have been written about me, nobody's ever captured me. To understand me, you have to understand my life...
