Is JESSE JACKSON fully occupied? How about running the N.A.A.C.P.? During a recent trip to his hometown of Greenville, South Carolina, Jackson visited with N.A.A.C.P. board chairman William Gibson, who seems intrigued by rumors that the shadow senator from Washington might be interested. But the Reverend also has promises "that a Clinton Administration would push hard for a statehood," says a Jackson watcher. "What he really wants is to be Senator of New Columbia."
