 Interesting question... and even further, how will the politics of the USA change towards the Fen in Season 2? Still cold war? Or slowly warming up?
Something that makes it even more interesting -- I knew the First Lady at Princeton. (We lived in the same residential college for some years, and while we weren't friends, we had friends in common.)   IRL that means exactly zip and bupkis, as I doubt she even remembers me -- but!  Imagine the fuss in the media when it turns out that the Democratic candidate's wife has "links" to that bunch of wanted criminals on the Grover's Corners.  

Double whammy.  I worked at Business International Corp. (now part of the Economist magazine) within a year of Barack Obama working there.  And BI -- as Wikipedia notes -- had a history of being a CIA front company.  (Not that I knew it while I was there...)  Another "link" that could be twisted by a propagandist for the Republicans.  

I suspect that if this all comes out early enough, we'll have a different Democrat running against Guiliani in 2012.  
Shall we let Hilary get elected, then?

(Edit from Bob:  Rob, somehow I accidentally ended up editing your post while trying to reply to it.  I've undone what I did, but I just wanted to explain why my name appears below.)
