This book is a collection of three short stories from the life of the fictional character Jason Wilder, a psychopath who in this alternative view of history manages to defeat Barack Obama in his bid for a second term as president of the United States. The first story, "Jason Wilder in Tempe, Arizona," follows Jason through his first year as a university student and ends with his application for a summer job with the infamous used car salesman Texas Bob. The second story, "Politically Outspoken," portrays a successful Jason Wilder who is dissatisfied with his upper-middle-class life and decides to run for governor of Arizona. The third story, "Running for President." gives this collection of stories its title and begins when the fabulously rich Hogson Brothers approach Jason to run as their candidate for president of the United States. It is a cynical view of corrupt presidential politics that some find all to believable and could have been written as a satire on the 2016 presidential campaign.
