I'm workshopping a screen manuscript next month about a military surgeon serving in Iraq who returns home on leave ond does something that makes her within six months the most respected and admired woman in America---and president.

I've got race, immigration, Iraq, environment et al covered but don't know if she could be a candidate next November if she were drafted now, summer 2007. or if I have to back-date before the mid-terms. She's a Republican.

Could she be drafted now, please? She's pro-gun, Muskeylew, from a distinguished Maine family. Her name is Gloria Hopkins Wolfe.

We don't have a draft, King. Might be good to have one fact in your fantasy.

I'd be far more concerned with whether or not she has Paris Hilton's endorsement. That, and I'd make sure Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman is not currently in syndication.

Jim, what I mean, is it conceivable without primaries? And remember Nixon with China. Who can separate fact and fantasy with politics anyway.

We not only lack a draft, and they would not draft folks over 35 anyway. Meanwhile a person cannot be under 35 and be president. Sounds like a strange and implausible tale to me.

Gloria is a mature woman, Brent, in her 40s. Ever see anything that isn't strange and implausible on the screen? Last night I watched the president (Michael Douglas) bonking a climate-change lobbyist (Warren Beatty's wife)---and that epidode must have been made 5-10 years ago. They call it entertainment.

Do we really need more of that sort of bilge?

I guess everyone's out to make a fast buck....so who cares if it is grounded in reality or does anything to further our culture?

Make sure Gloria is stalked by a white killer in fantastic physical condition who is a master of disguises and a whiz with electronics. He preferably will have been trained by the CIA and able to snap a security guard's neck with two fingers. Most of all, include plenty of anti-gun rhetoric and make sure he carries a "sawed off automatic revolver normally issue only to the Israeli Army."

Let me know when the movie is ready to come out....I want to sell some 'Honk if you slept with Gloria' bumper stickers.

Make her a National Guard reservist or something where she is called up for duty. That's a very realistic scenario that even Brent can accept.

You mean a political draft, not a military draft, eh? The movie you refer to sounds like a normal Democrat president, including Hitlery.

Why not make her a Canadian PM? Plausibility wouldn't be an issue, then, because no one would notice.
