And Phil Gramn (whom I like) was running against Steve Forbes, the center piece of BOTH champagnes was a flat tax plan and you expect Gramn to give an honest objective opinion of his opponent plan?

In 1992, there was a democratic governor running for the presidential nomination (some hippie nut), I know a big part of his platform was a flat tax. It might have been Jerry Browne, do you know any details of it?

You are correct Jerry Brown was running, and promising tax reform, can't remember the details, but I do remember him hauling the tax code in a wheel barrel (LOL) and saying stuff like "How much of this garbage do you suppose Congress wrote for your benefit", I was kinda hoping the Dems would nominate him, but no such luck.
