This is a political satire that is a short story and a work of fiction about what happens when America elects a President in 2032 with little knowledge of foreign affairs but is a very successful businessman who constructs infrastructure and has made billions over his career. He runs on a whim, and upsets the front runner in the election. Now he has to be the President, and deals with the economy, Congress, foreigners, and nukes.
Thayer Andrew Powers is the unexpected winner of the 2032 presidential election. He relies on his close advisors to help him lead the country. William (Billy) Mitchell is his Vice President, a veteran Congressman, and leads the Cabinet. Steve Edward is the smartest man in the room, and Powers makes him the Secretary of Defense, Secretary of State, and Secretary of Homeland Security. Stephen Schmidt is Powers' closest confident, but he has a deep secret, long-term roots to the Alt-Right and white nationalists. Powers also brings his two children and their spouses into the Cabinet - he has trained each to think like businessmen and women.
Powers approaches every situation like he was contracting to build a factory, road, or airport. Will his approach work with foreign countries like China, Russia, Israel, Pakistan, Iran, Korea, and how does he deal with ISIS successor terrorist organization, the SJMC which rules a large portion of the Middle East and portions of 30 countries. And what will Powers do if he has to open the nuclear football?
