5. New technology

Personally, one of the reasons I would like to see him elected is that I have seen there is new technology out there which could help change the economic picture of the country today. However, as this technology would face opposition from the oil companies, we need someone who has shown he is beholden to no one but the people.
By utilizing technology, such as the microwave plasmafication of trash, we could create a way to both effectively eliminate the trash we produce and generate energy for the production of electricity to be sold back to the grid. This would help make energy cheaper.
If we partnered with the universities to help develop a cheap way to mass produce graphene and buckystrings from the carbon atoms that are released during the plasmafication process ( it breaks down the trash into it's basic atomic elements) we would have the raw materials for a new industry. One where we could use things like graphene to reinforce everything from armor to airplanes, as it is 100 times stronger than steel but more lightweight.

6. I completely endorse Jerry

And have already joined that Facebook page. I think Jerry's got not only the right stances, but the experience necessary. As he's said in his ads, we need proven leadership, and not an entertaining outsider. Whitman and Poizner both possess ideas that would be lethal considering what a sunken ship the state is already.

9. After almost eight years of failure and confusion under Arnie,

Jerry Brown is just what California needs: a grown-up with the experience in GOVERNMENT to bring Californians together to solve the problems of our state.

Jerry Brown has proved that he is not only brilliant and tough, but can work with people well enough to govern. He previously served as governor of our state.

I signed up on his campaign website, and I believe that he will win.

Jerry Brown is the best person for the job. No question.
