A nuclear crisis can unfold anywhere the president happens to be. President Walter Emerson (Kevin Pollak) is campaigning when two calamities strike: A blizzard traps him in a Colorado diner, and Iraq invades Kuwait. The president threatens a nuclear strike against Baghdad, and when Iraq counters with an atomic threat, Emerson must make a decision that could save the world — or destroy it.
