Floyd Brown
Floyd Gregory Brown (born March 10, 1961; Bremerton, Washington) is an American author, speaker and media commentator. He is president of Excellentia Inc., a consulting company specializing in non-profit organizational strategy, development and marketing. Brown has also worked as a political consultant and conducted opposition research for political campaigns. Brown is noteworthy for his introduction of the "Willie Horton" television ad during the Bush-Dukakis presidential race. == Early life == The son of a sawmill worker, and the grandson of a member of the Industrial Workers of the World, Brown grew up in the Pacific Northwest in a family of Democrats with 100-year-old roots in the area. 〔 He graduated from Olympia High School in Olympia, Washington in 1979, and from the University of Washington. He holds a bachelor's degree in economics. He was appointed to, but chose to leave, the United States Military Academy at West Point. Brown credits meeting Ronald Reagan at a Masonic Temple in 1976 for sparking his interest in public service when he was fifteen years old.〔Robert Faturechi, "Willie Horton 2.0," Seattle Times, August 7, 2008.〕 He is married to Mary Beth Brown, author of ''Condi: The Life of a Steel Magnolia'', and they have 3 children.〔Sean Cockerham, ''McClatchy Newspapers'', July 12, 2007.〕〔Catherine Manegold, "A Clinton Nemesis Revels in the Role," ''New York Times'', April 24, 1994.〕 In 1992, Brown was quoted in the ''Washington Times'':
I have a sense of what connects with people like me. We're not culturally Republicans. We're not libertarians. We're not neo-conservatives or former liberals. We're just old-fashioned, blue-collar social conservatives. These are people who couldn't care less about politics, want to be left alone by government, but if their country calls for them to fight abroad, will. You win elections by cultivating people like me.〔Judith Colp, "The GOP's Own 'Dennis the Menace,' ''Washington Times'', July 10, 1992.〕
