A satire about the 2008 presidential election, Population: One tells the story of the well-intentioned, but slightly clueless, Tara Haylin as she sets sail with her parents through the Atlantic en route to the Bermuda Triangle in an effort to debunk all of the surrounding myths about the area. After a tragic boating accident leaves her orphaned and washed ashore a sand marsh in the middle of nowhere, republican presidential hopeful Ron Rogaine, and his wife, Trisha, crash-land on the same turf while traveling to the Bahamas and pluck her from obscurity into the public eye by convincing her to join Ron’s campaign as his running mate.Ron’s opponent, the democratic nominee Jermaine Intesh, along with his running mate, senator Moe Trident, refuse to sit idle and let Tara’s youthful good looks deter the voters from Ron’s incompetence. In a desperate attempt to regain the public’s trust after a campaign event goes horribly wrong, Jermaine devises the perfect plan that will not only guarantee him victory, but will also give history a rewrite and change the United States of America forever.
