I am looking for a movie or made-for-tv movie by the name of "The Man". Sometime around 0970-1976. It was based on the premise that because of two unrelated accidents, a black man is made President of the U.S. As I recall I enjoyed the premise and the idea presented. I would like to see it again.
Thanks,
Ralph Duffell

Here are three links for the movie you are looking for "The Man," 1972, starring
James Earl Jones. The plot summary matches what you wrote "to a tee."

Didn't know there were movies or tvs in the year 970. (just kidding) :p
