At the end of the book, I would have voted for Jack Stanton.

Jack Stanton, southern governor - (Bill Clinton)

His run for president in 1992 against Jack Stanton (the Clinton character from "Primary Colors") abruptly fizzles out.

In training camp, Elvis Patterson, a special-teams star, body-slammed the frail 54-year-old secondary coach, Jack Stanton.

After his outburst and attack on the coach, Jack Stanton, 54 years old, nobody expected to see the 31-year-old Patterson in camp again, least of all Shell.

Jack Stanton, who represents Butler, did not return telephone calls seeking comment yesterday.

The narrator of "Primary Colors" is one Henry Burton, a bright young man who becomes Jack Stanton's deputy campaign manager.

Jack Stanton was expected to take over as president, but the Stantons were ousted before that took place.
