ADVANCE FOR USE MONDAY, NOV. 16 - In this photo taken Aug. 27, 2015, John Jay Hooker walks out the door of his retirement home in Nashville, Tenn. Hooker lost the 1970 governor's race after a bruising campaign complete with accusations that fraudulent accounting had brought down his restaurant franchise, and the idea that some still think he is dishonest bothers him to this day. He has continued to run for office, including regularly for governor, but has never again come so close to winning. (AP Photo/David Goldman)
