Camden County: Camdenton, Osage Beach & Lake of the Ozarks

JACK TRUMAN FOR U.S. CONGRESS

Missouri 4th Congressional District

Let's talk a little bit about Camden County.

I think it's important to bring something back to my home state here in Missouri. Where I grew up. Was raised. Went to school. Own property. And call home.

There's a lot to share about Camden County Missouri. This is one of 26 counties in the 4th Congressional District of Missouri that I'm running for U.S. Congress in 2016.

You can't get much more rural and down home than in Camden County. The total population here in Camden County is around 44,000 people. So it's very rural. And it feels like everyone's right here in your backyard. Good morals. Good values. Good small town living.

Camden County is in what I'd call close to the center of the state of Missouri. Just a little south and west of the center. Very pretty country. From where I live in Lamar, you just drive up to El Dorado Springs and get on old Highway 54. And head east. It's about 80 miles east of where I live.

I remember riding up there on my Senior Trip in high school back in 1983 to the Lake of the Ozarks. Very pretty country.

A little bit about Camden county:

Camden County Missouri started back in 1841.

Camdenton is the largest town. But also included is Osage Beach and Lake of the Ozarks. The area has a really neat rural, tourist and down-home redneck style that is very appealing. It's a pretty neat area if you happen to get a chance to drive through it.

A lot of issues that need to be addressed relate more than ever to small town rural America. And Camden County is no exception.

Taking care of our Farmers. Veterans. Senior Citizens. Children. Education. Health. Equality. The Second Amendment. Making our country great again. Taking care of our own here domestically, and focusing on the little man and woman. The rural communities are our roots. Where everything got started. There's no discipline anyone. This culture doesn't follow rules. It's time to get back to some basic hometown values and traditions.

It's time for a radical change. It's time for outsiders who represent the little man and woman to be a part of our government. It's time to shake things up in Washington. It's time for a political revolution.

My name is Jack Truman. And I'm running for U.S. Congress in Missouri's 4th Congressional District.
