E. W. Jackson is one of the most popular and richest American Politician who was born on January 13, 1952 in Chester, Pennsylvania, United States. Jackson was born on January 13, 1952 in Chester, Pennsylvania, the great-grandson of slaves from Orange County, Virginia. His parents separated when he was a child, and he spent most of his childhood in a foster home.
He practiced law in the Boston area for 15 years. Jackson also studied theology at Harvard University’s Divinity School. He remained in Boston until the late 1990s as a practicing attorney, and was also a preacher in Boston. He said he was asked to leave his first ministerial position, at a Baptist church in Cambridge in 1982 after two years. He said of his tenure there, “It was an older congregation and I was a young 27-year-old firebrand. It was not a good mix.”
In June 1998, Jackson was consecrated a bishop. Later that year, he and his family moved to Chesapeake, Virginia, and began holding weekly Bible studies. Out of the weekly meetings, in 1999 Jackson and his wife founded Exodus Faith Ministries, a nondenominational church. The church rented a space in a storefront location, but was forced to move due to zoning regulations, another incident that helped to shape his view of government overreach. The church rents a room at a Chesapeake hotel, where Jackson preaches every Sunday. Jackson founded Chesapeake’s annual Martin Luther King Jr. Breakfast, now in its 14th year.
In May 2011, Jackson announced he was running for the United States Senate seat in Virginia in the 2012 election. George Allen won the June 2012 primary; Jackson received 5% of the vote.
Jackson had been a lifelong Democrat; however, in the 1980s he embraced conservatism. He said of his decision, “I had a crisis of conscience. Can I be in a party that holds these views that are antithetical to my worldview? In my personal opinion, it is difficult if you are a Bible-believing Christian to reconcile that to some of the positions that the Democrat Party has taken.”

(Staying True to America’s National Destiny), a Christian political organization seeking to unite America under the best possible opportunity and values for all people to thrive and succeed in the spirit of Martin Luther King, Jr.
Jackson joined the United States Marine Corps in 1970. He was honorably discharged as a corporal in 1973. Following his graduation from the University of Massachusetts Boston, he attended Harvard University’s Law School where he earned his law degree.
While in Boston, Jackson faced money troubles as he spent nine years trying to rescue a bankrupt radio station, which he took over and converted into a gospel station. Difficulties resulted from extended legal battles with the Federal Communications Commission. In 1993, Jackson was forced to enter bankruptcy protection. Of the bankruptcy filing, Jackson said, “It was painful. It was difficult. It was embarrassing. I don’t like the idea of not paying off debts.” The protracted battles with the FCC contributed to his belief that the government unreasonably interferes in the free market.
