San Mateo- "All politics is local," said Tip O'Neil, the great former Speaker of the House. Governor Jerry Brown brought it home as he addressed the State Convention of the NAACP at the San Mateo Marriott Hotel in the presence of delegates and the Mayor of San Mateo Brandt Grotte.
Among the ceremonies was the presentation of a proclamation from the City of San Mateo at the luncheon emceed by Regina Whitney of the SEIU which sponsored the luncheon.
Governor Brown was straight forward about his stance on Proposition 30, jobs, education, challenge to voters' rights and tight fiscal belt-tightening.
