the premise of this movie and of a comedian talk show host run for president a an independent just to shake thing up and be funny and entertaining and brilliant and even a bit inspiring . ( think about the west wing debate when tom dobbs leave his podium and think about steven colbert announce his candidacy and good time ) the first 15 20 minute of this movie be therefore very very entertaining and the debate especially . when he eventually get elect and it a pity that be because of a computer glitch and you would want him to win fair ( although that be unrealistic ) . but after that this movie go completely downhill . i think we would get a great movie like dave ( 1993 ) in which we see how it would out if a comedian actually run the country . instead and the movie turn from comedy into a thriller and a romantic comedy and a drama and do none good . the computer glitch become the main storyline and which really suck . boy be this disappointing . i give it 3 star just for the premise and because i actually manage to watch this movie from start to end without stop it and which be usually a good thing with me .
