Gary Hart's presidential run was ended after he was alleged to be having an affair on a yacht named Monkey Business: https://www.americanheritage.com/node/132685.

The candidate is so old you can take joke material from any decade of the 20th century

My (admittedly cursory) search indicated that the Monkey Business scandal was in '87. Did he first run in '84?

https://www.americanheritage.com/node/132685 - This also sounds like '87.

But yeah, 1984 was a long time ago now, I guess.
