Whats Right With America is a made for TV "Mini-Movie" that originally aired on July 4th, 1997. The film explores the idea of a near future scenario in which the United States has been under the leadership of a far-right winged dictator named President Collins. Under Collins, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights has been suspended, women are treated as property to their men, all broadcast media has been censored, all phones do not work, and young boys are forced into military service in order to fight a rebellion.

Plot
The film opens with a message from the fictitious President Collins who proudly states, "A new day is dawning in America, Things are being put right. American men are asserting themselves and their women are standing down ready to do their share. This is the Collins way, Keep it simple. Keep it just. Keep it all for the men who earned it."

The film ends with one last message from President Collins "Today you the voters will give us a report card on the changes we've made. A vote for Collins, is a vote for America. God Bless you, and good night."
