As the role of President of the United States evolves with each term served, so does their fictional television portrayal - or is it the other way around? Politically toned programming from The West Wing to 24 offer their own distinct definitions of what constitutes leading a country, and arguably have a significant issue on modern American culture and society. This documentary examines the influence of television and movies, as well as offering a serious look at how future Presidents will react to events both within and outside of the United States, and offers clips from a variety of films and television shows featuring fictional Presidents.
