Me as a Governor

In 1967 I was elected as the governor of California. During my campaign I emphasized two main themes. "To send the welfare bums back to work," and to clean up the mess at Berkley." I beat the two term Governor Edmund G. "Pat" Brown in the campaign.
I was asked during my campaign what kind of Governor I would be. I replied with, "I don't know, I've never played a governor before," Hahahahaha, well i thought it was funny. I had promised to cut taxes, reduce government waste, and curb student unrest in California's campuses.
I had also served in the army reserve for three years. I was called to active duty after Pearl Harbor. During my service I had risen to rank of captain. Even thought I never did partake in any real combat, I stayed stateside and narrated training videos.
