Jack & Bobby
The youth of the future US president Bobby McCallister (interspersed with interviews with his White House in-crowd, given eight years later, in 2049). Bobby grew up depending largely on his elder brother Jack, a popular athlete and altruist. They are raised solely by their mother, Grace, a professor who pretends to know everything and attempts to improve the world, but is a hopeless housewife. Grace is nearly always wrong and gives the worst advice to her boys while simultaneously messing up their private lives. The boys wrestle with ethics beyond their years, as well as normal high-school problems such as dating. Slowly their family past and future become revealed.
