So many reasons, so little time. Here are a few of mine, feel free to add your own.
Leland Stanford
The namesake and founder of the 'furd made his fortune on the backs of Chinese immigrants, then supported legislation that specifically discriminated against them. What an asshole.
Herbert Hoover
It's never a good thing when massive shanty towns are built in your honor.
Hoover Institute
The 'farm is home to the Hoover Institute, a horrible collection of neocon "thinkers" such as Victor Davis Hanson, Donald Rumsfeld, Shelby Steele, and Condeleezza Rice just to name a few. These people spend their days finding new wars to start and new social programs to cut.
The city of Palo Alto
Berkeley may have a severe homeless problem, but at least we've got some style. Palo Alto is a bland, heartless amalgamation of strip malls and chain stores.
John Elway
Sure the man was talented, but he's the charter member of the Whiners Hall of Fame. The man could whine with the best of them.

I'm sure I could think of many, many more if given the time. GO BEARS!
