Question: What is the middle name of Gerald Ford's 1976 running mate?
Context: John "Jack" Gardner Ford (born March 16, 1952) is the second child and second son of U.S. President Gerald Ford and Betty Ford.  Married to Juliann Felando Ford on April 29, 1989 and they have two sons, Christian Gerald Ford (born October 14, 1997), and Jonathan August Ford (born November 29, 1999).  He is a 1970 graduate of T.C. Williams High School in Alexandria, Virginia.  He attended Utah State University, studying Forestry. The United States presidential election of 1976 was the 48th quadrennial presidential election, held on Tuesday, November 2, 1976.  The winner was the Dark horse candidate Jimmy Carter, a former Governor from Georgia with his running mate, Walter Mondale, a U.S. Senator from Minnesota, the Democratic candidates, over the incumbent President Gerald Ford from Michigan and his running mate, Bob Dole, a U.S. Senator from Kansas, the Republican candidates. James M. Cannon was a historian, author and former Assistant to the President of the United States for Foreign Affairs during the Gerald Ford administration.  Prior to his work with Ford, he served as an aide to both Governor of New York and Vice President, Nelson D. Rockefeller after a career as a journalist.  After leaving the White House at the end of the Ford Administration, Cannon became Ford's official biographer, publishing "Time and Chance: Gerald Ford's Appointment with History". The presidency of Gerald Ford began on August 9, 1974, when Gerald Ford became President of the United States upon the resignation of Richard Nixon from office, and ended on January 20, 1977, a period of days.  Ford had served as Vice President of the United States since December 6, 1973, following Spiro Agnew's resignation from that office.  The 38th United States president, Ford has the distinction of being the first, and to date the only person to serve as president without being elected to either the presidency or the vice presidency.  His presidency ended following his defeat in the 1976 presidential election by Democrat Jimmy Carter. In 1974, Republican President Richard Nixon was forced to resign following the Watergate Scandal.  Vice President Gerald Ford ascended to the presidency, leaving the office of vice president vacant.  Under the terms of the 25th Amendment, a vice presidential vacancy is filled when the president nominates a candidate who is confirmed by both houses of Congress.  On August 20, 1974, Ford announced his nomination of former New York Governor Nelson Rockefeller to fill the vacancy.  Ford also considered picking Tennessee Senator Howard Baker and former Republican National Committee Chairman George H.W. Bush.  Rockefeller was generally considered to be a liberal Republican, and Ford decided that picking Rockefeller would help his candidacy gain support in the 1976 presidential election.  The confirmation hearings for Rockefeller lasted for months, but Rockefeller was sworn in as the 41st Vice President of the United States on December 19, 1974.  Due to the pressure on Ford by the party conservatives, Rockefeller was ultimately passed over for the 1976 ticket, and Ford instead chose Bob Dole as his running mate.  Ford, however, regreted this move later. The United States presidential election of 1996 was the 53rd quadrennial presidential election.  It was held on Tuesday, November 5, 1996.  The Democratic national ticket was led by incumbent President Bill Clinton, and his running mate, incumbent Vice President Al Gore.  The Republican nominee for President was Bob Dole, the former Republican Leader of the United States Senate and long-time Senator from Kansas who was previously the vice-presidential running mate of President Gerald Ford in 1976, following Vice President Nelson Rockefeller's retirement from politics that year.  Dole's running mate for Vice President was Jack Kemp, a former NFL football player and the Housing Secretary under George H. W. Bush.  Businessman Ross Perot ran as candidate for the Reform Party with economist Pat Choate as his running mate; he received less media attention and was excluded from the presidential debates and, while still obtaining substantial results for a third-party candidate, by U.S. standards, did not renew his success of the 1992 election.  Turnout was registered at 49.0%, the lowest for a presidential election since 1924. William J. Maguire (June 12, 1916 – October 2, 1997) was an American Republican Party politician who served in the New Jersey General Assembly from 1976 to 1982.  He served as Mayor of Clark, New Jersey and as a Union County Freeholder.  Maguire was elected to the State Assembly in 1975, running with future Governor Donald DiFrancesco; they defeated incumbent Democrat Betty Wilson and her running mate, William A. Wolf, the Rahway Democratic Municipal Chairman.  He was re-elected in 1977.  Following the resignation of State Senator Peter J. McDonough in 1979, Maguire ran for the State Senate, but lost a vote of a Republican convention to DiFrancesco.  He was re-elected to the Assembly, with future Congressman Bob Franks as his running mate.  Maguire's political career came to an end in 1981, when redistricting traded Democratic towns in Union County for solid Republican towns in Essex County.  DiFrancesco was facing a primary challenge from an Essex County Republican; to secure the Essex organization line in a district where Republican primary election voters were evenly split between Essex and Union, DiFrancesco agreed to put an Essex Republican on his ticket.  John Renna, the Essex Republican Chairman, preferred that Franks (who had worked on Renna's 1977 bid for County Chairman), get the second Assembly seat.  Maguire, replaced by Millburn Mayor Maureen Ogden, did not run for re-election. The NCAA Gerald R. Ford Award was named in recognition of Gerald Ford, 38th President of the United States.  Presented by the National Collegiate Athletic Association, the award honors an individual who has provided significant leadership in the role of advocate for intercollegiate athletics and has done so a continuous basis over the course of their career.  Ford played the position of center in football at the University of Michigan, participating on national championship teams in 1932 and 1933.  He turned down offers from Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions to study law at Yale University.  The Gerald Ford Award was first awarded in 2004. Robert Joseph Dole (born July 22, 1923) is an American lawyer and politician who represented Kansas in Congress from 1961 to 1996 and served as the Republican Leader of the United States Senate from 1985 until 1996.  He was the Republican presidential nominee in the 1996 presidential election and the party's vice presidential nominee in the 1976 presidential election. The 2016 United States presidential election in Ohio was held on November 8, 2016, as part of the 2016 General Election in which all 50 states plus The District of Columbia participated.  Ohio voters chose electors to represent them in the Electoral College via a popular vote pitting the Republican Party's nominee, businessman Donald Trump, and running mate Indiana Governor Mike Pence against Democratic Party nominee, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and her running mate, Virginia Senator Tim Kaine.
