Elvis Called White House Regularly MORGANTOWN, W.Va., Jun 23, 2000 (AP Online via COMTEX) -- Elvis Presley was so excited about having a fellow Southerner in the White House that he called President Jimmy Carter regularly. "Trouble was, Elvis was usually pretty loaded when he called," said Hamilton Jordan, Carter's chief of staff. "It got to the point that the president would just hand off the phone to me or whoever was around. Elvis never caught on." Jordan, who spoke Thursday at West Virginia University, is touring to promote his book, "No Such Thing As a Bad Day," about his experience surviving three separate battles with cancer. Jordan, 55, has had non-Hodgkins lymphoma, prostate cancer and skin cancer. His talk focused on his cancer and the need nationally for more money for cancer research. -0- APO Priority=r APO Category=1403 KEYWORD: MORGANTOWN, W.Va. SUBJECT CODE: 1403 * end of story *
