In this unscripted and unprecedented reality show from Emmy-winning documentary filmmaker R.J. Cutler (The War Room, American High , Showtime’s Freshman Diaries), ten candidates from all walks of life compete to see if they have the qualities and qualifications to become President of the United States. The series focuses on six men and four women of various ages, backgrounds and political views, including Independents, Democrats, Republicans, Greens and Libertarians.

Week-by-week, candidates will face-off against each other in a series of challenges designed to identify one individual who has what it takes to one day be President. The episodes will feature well-known political experts who advise the candidates on the challenges they will face. These consultants help the candidates shape their messages and campaigns, as well as give advice on everything from political ad creation and media coaching to image consulting and polling.

The show is hosted by Emmy Award winning talk show host Montel Williams.
