"Fast-paced, prescient political satire.
When Democratic hopeful Senator Adhemar Reyes proposed that all presidential candidates compete on a reality TV show to prove they can handle a crisis, he was kidding—mostly. But he said it on the U.S. Senate Floor, and it was all caught on C-SPAN.
The comment sparks a media frenzy. Everyone wants Adhemar on their show. It doesn't hurt to get your face on TV so that the American public knows your name before you announce your candidacy. Right? Mostly.
But when Congress passes a bill that makes the reality show a reality, the senator is thrust into The President Factor, replete with countless sarcastic jibes, two political crises, and an off-limits love affair. Will the charismatic Hispanic candidate win?
Why is one team getting malaria shots?
Can Washington politics be even more absurd?
Yes to the last question. The rest is inside."
