David Simon's latest HBO miniseries "The Plot Against America" explores a historical what-if. What if famed aviator Charles Lindbergh became president? It tells the story through a Jewish family from New Jersey, fearful of Lindbergh's "America First" rhetoric and xenophobic tendencies in the early 1940s. Simon began his career as a police reporter with the Baltimore Sun and may be best known for creating "The Wire," widely considered one of the best television shows ever made.
