ADVANCE FOR USE MONDAY, NOV. 16 - In this photo taken Aug. 19, 2015, John Jay Hooker holds a copy of the Tennessee Constitution he keeps on him at all times as he sits in the lobby of his retirement home in Nashville, Tenn. "It’s part of my shtick. Makes me seem like I’m smarter than I am," said Hooker who pulls it out frequently as a conversation piece. "Most of it I’ve memorized and I talk to somebody about it everyday. It’s a teaching tool." (AP Photo/David Goldman)
