Hello librarians, including our favorite Latin lurker, et al.,
a little while back I requested some help on locating a book...
I'm trying again with a new detail...
* * *
I have a book in mind about a reporter covering a presidential
election. The candidate wears white suits and a white cowboy hat. He
promises to unite the country, eliminate slums in all major
metropolitan areas, and put the unemployed back to work. The reporter
is suspicious, and it's a race to find out the how before election
day...
I don't want to go into much more detail without giving away the plot.
One more detail to add...
The candidate's plan is to detonate nuclear devices in a few major metropolitan 
areas and blame terrorists - which will unite the country, eliminate slums, and put 
everyone back to work...

I'm looking for the title and author - I believe it was published in the early 70s 
- not much after the decade of high (grin) those 60s were something, weren't they?

I thought it was The Man - nope, not that one.
I looked for The Candidate ... not that one either . . .

any help is appreciated . . . until that time... Earl J.
