Subscribe FreeThe year is 2008. Appointed President Walter Emerson (Pollak) finds himself and his entourage stranded in Colorado during a wicked snowstorm. Suddenly, he gets word that Iraqi leaders have mounted a huge military offensive in the Middle East and the leader of the free world must set up a command post in a small-town diner. The President, along with his top aides (Hutton & Ralph), must make earth-shaking (literally) desicions at every turn of events in an effort to keep world peace. What defensive measures should the President authorize and what will work as a Deterrence to keep the Iraqis from further aggressive actions? Watch for director Rod Lurie in a cameo and Lassie alum June Lockhart as Secretary Of State Clift. (Laurie Sevano)
