Michigan Caucus Classic Film Series

Senators Barack Obama, John McCain, and Hillary Clinton are captured in the War on Terror®. They are all brainwashed into believing McCain saved their lives in combat, for which he receives the Medal of Honor when they return to the US Senate. After the war is over, Obama begins to have a recurring nightmare in which McCain wins the presidential election when all the election machines refuse to work unless the voter inserts a photo ID and a major credit card as part of the new Voter ID Act. When he learns that Clinton has been having the same dream, he sets out to uncover the mystery - and run for President.

The Bushmen intend to use McCain as a sleeper agent and, hearing the term, the "War on Terror®," as a subconscious trigger, compel him to follow their orders, which he doesn't remember afterwards. McCain is controlled by none other than his own domineering mother, Vice President Dick Cheney, who is working in a plot to keep the US in turmoil. Cameo by George W. Bush as an actual President.
