During the six years from 1979 to 1985 that the “Dukes of Hazzard” ran on television, Jones played Cooter Davenport, the resourceful sidekick mechanic who kept the Duke boys’ beloved muscle car the General Lee, tuned up and always a couple of miles per hour faster than the hapless sheriff of a made-up Georgia county. Fourteen years after he left Congress after two terms, Jones, a native Southerner who turns 76 this month, has parlayed his fame as a good-natured good ‘ol boy on TV into an indefatigable supporter of Southern heritage and the battle flag of Dixie that has become one of the most divisive symbols in the real-life modern culture war.
