Synopsis
When the Democratic National Committee’s top strategist Gary Zimmer sees a video of retired Marine colonel Jack Hastings standing up for the rights of his town’s undocumented workers, he believes he has found the key to winning back voters in America’s heartland. Paying an unscheduled visit to Hastings’ dairy farm in rural Deerlaken, Wisconsin, Gary persuades the largely apolitical retired Marine to run for mayor. Initially, Gary relies on Jack’s very capable daughter, Diana and a team of enthusiastic, if inexperienced, volunteers. However, when the Republican National Committee counters him by sending in his brilliant nemesis Faith Brewster, Gary is more than primed to up his game. As Gary and Faith square off, what started out as a local race quickly becomes escalates to a national political battle and a hilarious fight for the soul of America.
