Sports legends, serial killers, movie stars - many notable characters have come out of the small city of Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Now, a documentarian has discovered some of Baton Rouge's not-so-notable characters, three hopeless misfits who exhaust their meager resources to realize their dreams, dreams which are vastly different, though equally insignificant and impossible to accomplish. Dale Kernie, a 21-year-old musician, believes that he has composed America's latest and greatest national anthem. With little talent, no substantial contacts, yet lots of optimistic determination, Dale sets out on the long and confusing path of replacing "The Star-Spangled Banner" with his own terrible national hymn, "My America." Russell Cagle, a 27-year-old high school dropout, possesses little except the vague desire to film a documentary about Abraham Lincoln and the Lincoln Memorial. Since he knows nothing about Lincoln or filmmaking (or films, for that matter), this is quite a problem. Yet Russ struggles to finish his movie, even though he's penniless, clumsy, ignorant, and technically homeless. Justin Justice, age unknown, has his sights set on Washington, DC, where he hopes to offer his protective services to the president of the United States. However, nobody, including the criminals of Baton Rouge, knows that this self-proclaimed "crime-fighting superhero" even exists. Justin aims to bide his time with menial tasks around town until he feels President Bush beckoning him to his side....
