In the distant future (1998), the United States of America has gone broke and is in danger of being foreclosed by a group of Native Americans, now owners of the massive Nike Corporation. A desperate and mellow fellow, President Chet Roosevelt decides to make a last-ditch attempt to save the country from complete bankruptcy... by raising money with a national telethon. And with this way-out-there premise as a launch pad, Americathon explodes into outer space and the country may have a prayer when the people running the show does not have a clue.
