First time....I'm hooked if it keeps up the pace. POTUS is an absolute wimpy jerk. Definitely a Democrat.
Wrong-o.
Remember this is Telebizhin, and that means Hollywood types created these characters. Which means only Republicans are wimpy jerks.
David Palmer who was president in the first 3 seasons was a Democrat.
He was a righteous, honest, upstanding, strong, wise benefactor who fixed the economy, saved the world from terrorists, gave us Universal Health Care, ended bigotry within the general population, and will no doubt go down in the annals of history as one of the best presidents EVER (in the parallel 24 universe)
Unfortunately, he was physically forced into doing something scandalous during an election, and the slimy, evil, sinister, moustache twirling, blood-drinking (and no-doubt racist) Republican candidate found out, and leveraged Palmer right the eff out of the presidential race - and then he became president.
His needle-dick, weasly, gutless turd of a running mate is now the president, after the Evil (albeit strong and decisive) Republican was shot down in Air Force One by terrorists last season.
