Jerry Brown campaigns at Petersen Dean Roofing and Solar Systems in Newark, Calif.in 2010. Mr. Brown sees himself as a regular guy who buys his suits on sale, drives around in a Ford Crown Victoria and enjoys dinner at home with his wife. What he wants Californians to see beyond is the Jerry Brown of three decades ago, who derisively was dubbed "Governor Moonbeam."
