Realizing that their lackluster fundraising efforts may bankrupt their radio network, Click and Clack use ex-Harvard professor Crusty's connections to save the day. The solution? Run for president! A visit from a local politician illuminates a loophole in campaign fundraising law that allows all excess monies raised, even in an unsuccessful campaign, to be legally kept. Soon, Click and Clack, with Beth and Crusty's assistance, engage the help of a well-heeled political campaign manager, declaring themselves United States presidential candidates. It looks hopeless until the night of the final debate, when Click and Clack display their mettle in the face of hypocrisy. But will they save the network?
