Abstract

No one said you had to be sane to win the lottery. Popular conspiracy writer Levon Ignatius Helter, aka MOSES67, of Hells Kitchen has just resigned. The government knows too much, the people are apathetic, and his life’s work scribing truth from his cave-like apartment has made no significant impact. From this day forward, he pledges to bravely live his few remaining days in freedom until the black SUVs and helicopters come for him. That is until a ticket alters his destiny presenting him fame, fortune, and an uncomfortable face-to face meeting with the recently reelected president he madly despises. A dedicated patriot with comical anger management issues, Levon accepts his final mission. With the help of his friends from the Central Park Chess and Checkers Club and a disbarred attorney, he will launch the most unorthodox campaign ever seen against a president no longer running a campaign. Levon Helter, the loose cannon with endless balls, is about to make his mark as the biggest pain in the ass in the history of American politics.
