Meet John
John is a conservative outsider and lifelong Tennessean. He is raising his family on the Generational Rose family farm because Tennessee is his home.
In fact, John is the 8th generation to live and farm in the adjoining Temperance Hall and Lancaster communities in Dekalb and Smith Counties. He started working on the farm as a kid and was raised in nearby Cookeville. John graduated from Cookeville High School and continued his education at Tennessee Tech University, home of the Golden Eagles. He studied agriculture at Tech, an easy choice for him since farming has always been a passion of his.
Tennesseans deserve a healthy debate between all Republican candidates for Governor. While Marsha Blackburn has run from the press and declined debates, I’ve held more than 40 public town halls in just two months. I’m ready to debate the issues. I appreciate News Channel 5 for stepping forward to host. Now, Marsha Blackburn needs to step forward and make this debate a reality.
The Nashville GOP Picnic was a great reminder that Tennessee’s strength comes from grassroots folks who are willing to get involved, serve their communities, and protect our traditions. Together, we’ll keep Tennessee, Tennessee.
