will any of these guys take a whack at jerry brown's strength? it doesn't look like it, but at this point it's interesting to watch brown in his final year. when he will make an announcement? that's interesting, too. we don't know. he hasn't announced if he is going to run. >> what also remains to be seen is how much of what governor brown has done people will understand and comprehend. there was a survey recently about the new funding formula for public education, how little the public understood about how the formula has changed what the new formula is what does this mean for my schools. no question. there's been a lot of progress from minus 26 to plus 2. when the rubber hits the road and it's time for people to say, yes, i will re-elect governor brown because -- or no, i will vote for his opponent because, i'm not sure how much people get it on a voter level. >> there's no chance he gets re-election. the only thing that will stop him is health issues. california is one of the bluest states in the country. la teens no don't vo latinos don't vot

that's why brown was torn over the sequester last winter. he desperately wants to downsize the government, except for the pentagon. >> we need to make targeting cuts, but we need to have a strong national defense. we need to spend more money on the military. >> the white house's calculations was the republicans would not be able to tolerate the sequester because of its impact on the defense budget. >> but former clinton advisor says the sequester revealed something few in washington expected. >> it's turned out to be an x-ray of changes inside the republican party where the automatic reflex of being pro-defense has been at least overlaid with an equally important impulse towards smaller government. >> it would take months for that x-ray image to fully develop. >> i think both parties have a say that this would be a negative event for the economy. >> remember maryland congressman john delaney? on february 12, he headed to his first state of the union address. >> i don't think a sequester is going to happen. >> defense cuts were supposed to be

who is there besides scott brown. who could wrestle this nomination away from him? >> certainly former senator bob smith, who's been living in florida for about 12 years, says he's coming back to the state. he's going to redeclare full-time residency and run here as well. i'm not sure if bob smith could beat jeanne shaheen but he represents real problems for scott brown in a primary and here's why. it's appropriate -- i was watching when my wife, the wizard of oz over the weekend, because i think scott brown will have that judy garland moment where he thinks i'm not in massachusetts anymore. the massachusetts republican of henry cabot lodge and ed brook aren't the new hampshire republicans that vote in a n nonpresidential race where turnout will be low. it's fiscally conservative and socially conservative. scott brown will have to explain his votes and his positions on abortion, on gun control, on same-sex marriage to those conservative republicans. and bob smith is going to remind them of scott brown's voting record

senate, paul brown of georgia. congressman paul brown won a special election in 2007. he won re-election in 2008, 2010, and again last november. now, he wants to be georgia's next senator. his credentials, well, he's a doctor. he was a lobbyist for the safari club international, a group that advocates for hunters. and he brags about being the first member of congress to call the president a socialist. congressman brown, who sits on the house, science, space, and technology committee last year told a tea party audience in a room where the walls had ears his take on the history of the human race. >> god's word is true. i've come to understand that. all that stuff i was taught about evolution, elm big bang theory, all of that is lies straight from the pit of hell. i don't believe the earth is 9 but about 9,000 years old. with statements like that from a man who went to med school, there's no wonder that when brown was re-elected last fall, charles darwin received almost 4,000 write-in votes. and when it comes to obamacare, brown was on the house floor in 2010, drawing som

but i find it interesting, james brown, steven a. smith, that is fantastic, speaking the way they see it. that is great. but here is the issue. blacks voted for president obama in excess of 90%. >> 93%. >> and i think the approval rating among blacks is still almost 89%. but if you look at what has gone on since president obama has held office, the black unemployment rate has widened compared to white. so it was around double the white unemployment rate and had gone down 1.6% or 1.7% what it was and now it is over 2.2% times what the whites are. so the blacks are losing ground compared to whites in the last five years under president obama, i can't imagine that would be -- that demand or command, 89% approval rating. >> it always sort of follows on what happens in the white community. first of all, the economic is starting to boom. we don't talk about that in our show. >> but don't you care about that, bob? >> do i care about that? is that a fair question. of course i care about it. but i don't believe it is obama's fault and i'm not

jeffrey brown has our profile of carlos santana. >> brown: since his emergence in the san francisco music scene in the late 1960s, carlos santana has been recognized as one of rock 'n roll's greatest guitarists. ♪ whose latin-infused sounds and rhythms, beginning with the band that bore his name, have produced hit songs and albums that have sold in the millions. his appearance at woodstock helped rocket him to fame and concerts around the world continued to this day. in february, he makes his first concert tour of south africa, part of a long-held interest in the continent. and, just ahead of the kennedy center honors ceremony, we met up at the smithsonian national museum of african art in washington. santana's story began in mexico, first in the small town of autlan de navarro and later in tijuana as the son of a mariachi music violinist. >> i remember my dad playing violin since i was a kid. >> brown: what do you remember about it? what did you hear when you were a kid? >> it's a sound of screaming charisma. >> brown: screaming charisma? >> oh, my dad had charisma like he just-- the w
