We had this on the old board. Anyway, it's a tv show about a fictional american administration. It runs parallel to the real world (e.g last episode concerned the upcoming State of the Union).
There are interesting differences in the history of the West Wing world. Democratic President Bartlett was elected in '98 and re-elected in 2002. There was a Republican administration prior to Bartlett's. Communism fell a few years later. There is a nation named Qumar in what should be southern Iran.

In a recent episode, 2 former presidents are mentioned. Former President Lasciter(?) who had just died and former President Newman.
