He is the 2nd Ambassador to the United Nations and the 32nd Ambassador to the Wysterian General Assembly. He is from South Nashville Station in the Jackson Region of South Nashville.

Political Career

Thanks largely to the influence of his grandfather, Xavier was involved in politics from an early age. He grew up in politics working on his grandfather and uncle's campaigns during his teen years. At age 18, he managed his first campaign getting his cousin Bryant Xavier elected to the Jackson Regional Assembly. At age 22, while a senior at the University of Nashville, he ran successfully for the Regional Assembly and was elected as a delegate representing part of South Nashville Station.

Four years later, Delegate Bryant Xavier ran for the Senate. John Xavier was deeply involved in the campaign serving as campaign chairman and senior adviser. At age 28, he was elected Speaker of the Assembly, the chief executive position in the Jackson Region.

At age 33, he was nominated by Senator Bryant Xavier for the Office of Ambassador. While he did not win a majority in the entire Congress, he achieved the requisite 1/3 and finished second, including winning the votes of all but three members of the Jackson delegation. In the general election, he faced Senator Daniel Ayansh. With help from his entire family, he won 51%-48% and was elected to the same office once held by his grandfather.
