J.D. CROWELL, the President's campaign manager, is fired after an indiscreet dalliance with a beautiful biracial White House staffer. He soon discovers he has become a very inconvenient person for both the corrupt GOP President and the popular biracial Democratic challenger. Using every political dirty trick in the book, J.D. makes history while saving himself, his family, and his mistress.
DETAILED SYNOPSIS: J.D. CROWELL is fired as PRESIDENT ADDISON HUNTINGTON’S campaign manager over a public indiscretion with LIBBY CATTON, a beautiful mixed-race White Houser staffer.
Soon, however, J.D. discovers the real reason for his axing was not his affair with Libby, but rather the fact that her mother was BRIDGET DONOVAN, a Sixties’ radical still wanted for bombing federal buildings. Libby's radical past threatens both the President and MAYNARD KEYNES, the sports-and-entertainment Congressman who appears to be on the cusp of becoming America's the first biracial President.
Fleeing Washington anonymously for the sake of his family and Libby, J.D. finds a way to throw a monkey wrench into the political machinery of the aging President and also unmask the treachery of RASHAAD LEWIS, Keynes's murderous campaign manager.
