The film features many songs created for the fictitious campaign waged to deflect the President’s sex scandal. These include "Good Old Shoe", "The American Dream" and "The Men of the 303". However, the film’s soundtrack [[Compact disc|CD]] features only the title track (by British guitarist and vocalist [[Mark Knopfler]]) and seven of Knopfler's [[instrumental]]s.
