My Fellow Americans: A Political Thriller

Republican senator Russell Kramer wins the presidential election, narrowly defeating archrival Democratic governor Matt Douglas. Four years later, Douglas wins a landslide victory over the now-incumbent Kramer. Another four years later, Kramer’s former vice president, William Haney, defeats Douglas. Haney’s vice president, Ted Matthews, is widely seen as an idiot, and becomes an embarrassment for the administration. Three more years later, Kramer is spending his time writing books and speaking at inconsequential functions, while Douglas is finishing his own book and getting divorced.

Intrigue and Scandal Unfold

Meanwhile, the Democratic Party learns about “Olympia”, the codename for several bribes that defense contractor Charlie Reynolds paid Haney when he was vice president. DNC chairman Joe Hollis asks Douglas to investigate, offering the support of the Democrats for a presidential run in return for his help. Douglas accepts. Meanwhile, Haney and his Chief of Staff Carl Witnaur plot to frame Kramer for the scandal, despite Haney’s private acknowledgment to Witnaur that Kramer had known nothing about it. When rumors begin to suggest that Kramer was involved in Olympia, he begins his own investigation.

A Race Against Time

NSA agent Colonel Tanner has Reynolds assassinated when he attempts to tell Douglas the truth about Olympia. Kramer arrives at the scene to find Douglas with Reynolds’ body. Before they can flee, Douglas and Kramer are forced to board Marine One by Tanner, who claims they will be taken to Camp David for their security at Haney’s request. During the flight, Douglas realizes they are heading in the wrong direction. They force the pilots to land, disembarking just before the helicopter explodes.

Kramer and Douglas are left stranded, aware that the explosion was meant to kill them. They decide to go to Kramer’s Presidential Library to obtain records the miserly Kramer kept of all meals served during his time in the White House, which will prove Haney was present at a key meeting with Reynolds. On the way, they meet various ordinary Americans and see the effects their terms in office have had. After several close encounters with NSA agents, they arrive at the library and discover the evidence has been tampered with to implicate Kramer.

Confrontation and Resolution

Douglas and Kramer interrupt Haney’s speech and take him to the Oval Office to talk. There they play Haney a tape of Witnaur’s confession, but Haney denies knowledge of Reynolds’ murder or the helicopter explosion. Haney agrees to resign and gives a resignation speech, citing heart problems. Douglas and Kramer muse that the idiotic Matthews will now become president and realize the only way it could have happened was under these circumstances. The pair confront Matthews, who admits his stupidity is just an act and that he, not Haney, had engineered the entire plot so that he could become president, knowing Haney would take the fall. Douglas secretly tapes his confession, and Matthews goes to prison.

Nine months later, Douglas and Kramer are running together as independents in the Presidential election, arguing which of them will be the nominee for President. Douglas distracts Kramer by throwing a dollar on the floor, and grabs the microphone to announce himself as the Presidential candidate, much to Kramer’s chagrin.
