John Klar

John Klar is seventh-generation Vermonter who lives in Brookfield, where he raises grass-fed lamb and beef. Before that, he worked as an attorney. He's also staged campaigns for governor and state senate. Supporting Vermont's loca farms and local food production was the cornerstone of his political career. These ideas were codified into his 2020 Vermont Farming Manifesto. In 2006, he self-published a 600-page book called Christian Words, Un-Christian Actions: George W. Bush and the Desecration of Christianity in Modern America. He wrote a weekly column for the Newport Daily Express for about five years, then began writing for American Thinker, The Federalist, Human Events, American Spectator, Mother Earth News and True North Reports.
