On the Fox show 24, there is a Senator running for President named John Keeler. His campaign posters look just like Kerry's.
In last week's episode he blackmailed the President.
As you know, in 24 the president is a Democrat (it was mentioned only in two episodes or so in the first season). Of course, in Season 1, some of his supporters murdered someone who had unflattering info on his son and this season, he covers up for his homicidal ex-wife and sends his brother to steal the evidence.
He couldn't possibly be a Republican.
