Governor Pat Brown: Well, let me just tell you this—

President Kennedy: I’ll tell you this—you just reduced him to the nut house.

Brown: Listen: you gave me instructions and I follow your orders! (Unclear.)

President Kennedy: (chuckling) I understand. But God, that last farewell speech of his...

Brown: Wasn’t that terrible?

President Kennedy: Well, no, but it shows...(Needle skips.) What’s going to happen out there?

Brown: I don’t see how he can ever recover. (He lost) the leaders.

President Kennedy: Yeah.

Brown: (Former senator) Goodwin Knight walked out on him; (California conservative leader) Joe Shell told me he walked out on him. This is a peculiar fellow. I really think he’s psychotic. He’s an able man, but he’s nuts.

President Kennedy: Yeah.

Brown: Like a lot of these paranoics.

Man became president by serving on the board of Pepsi-Cola all those years. Hell, as governor, he may have leveled Watts and been elected with a majority of the popular vote.
