John is committed to the ideals of limited government and personal responsibility, and is the author of the Neighborhood Legislature Initiative. Born, raised and educated in Chicago, from his very early life John was greatly influenced by his mother and stepfather who spoke often on corruption, waste and inefficiency in public schools and the post office system - both government-run monopolies. John attended the University at Chicago, graduating with honor and a degree in Accounting and Political Science and would go on to found many companies, building his businesses from scratch to having assets of over $200 million with almost 100 employees over the past 35 years. His primary goal in CA is to push the idea of TINY districts so that smaller groups of people are represented directly. He is running for governor of CA in 2018. Also, he said he is looking for grooms to marry off his 4 daughters :-).
