James Clifford Miller III (born June 25, 1942, in Atlanta, Georgia) is an American economist and former government official who served as chairman of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) between 1981 and 1985 and as Budget Director for President Ronald Reagan between 1985 and 1988. Miller was the first member of the FTC with a background as a career economist, as opposed to a legal background as is common.[3]
He also ran for United States Senate in Virginia, losing the Republican nomination at the convention to Oliver North in 1994 and losing the nomination in the primary to John Warner in 1996.[4][5][6]

At a rollicking convention crowded with 15,000 delegates, North got 55 percent of the vote, defeating former Reagan Budget Director James C. Miller for the right to challenge Democratic Sen. Charles Robb this fall.
