The morning after his re-election, the President makes his first executive decision: to read a newspaper for the first time in four years. He is shocked to find that his view of the world around him bears little resemblance to the facts printed in the broadsheet. Undergoing something of a personal crisis, the President locks himself in his bedroom, causing panic and consternation for his Chief of Staff (William Dafoe). Frightened by the President's apparent nervous breakdown, his Chief of Staff pushes him back into the spotlight, booking him as a guest judge on the television ratings juggernaut (and the President's personal favorite), the weekly talent show "American Dreamz", a show similar in format to the modern-day American Idol and hosted by self-aggrandizing, self-loathing Martin Tweed(Hugh Grant) where the President will be judging along with Tweed. This turns out to be a contest that the nation will never forget!
