As the United States and the world tire of the war on terrorism, the media of the United States engage in full-scale vilification of the nation's president. The Democratic Party, feasting off of the media's banquet of barbs and bullets, quickly seizes the moment to re-take the White House in November 2004. Due to the emergence of a weak, front running nominee, the Democrats broker their nominating convention and select a senator from Missouri as their choice. Mary Lou Anderson receives full media support and easily wins the presidency, becoming the country's first woman occupant of the Oval Office. What follows her assumption of the position astounds the world, shocks the nation and results in a startling and different way of American Life.
