Reporter: Governor Brown, do you think President Carter was right to rule out a military strike to free the hostages in Tehran? Jerry Brown: Absolutely not, no option should ever be ruled out. Especially in the face of a serious threat to the viability of starship America. Foreign policy has to be viewed as process. Under certain circumstances, a military posture should be permitted to evolve. Reporter: What sort of reaction time are we talking here, Governor? Brown: Whatever feels right.
