Letters from Michael centers on Andrew Curtis King, a young, charismatic, and driven politician who has made quite a name for himself. He is thirty five years old, a seasoned politician who has served as representative, is currently a senator for his home state of Texas, and has been launched into the national limelight as the frontrunner for the Republican primaries race for President.
