The movie Head of State satirizes real political parties throughput the movie. For instance at the fundraiser party, Mays whats to get the party going so he starts playing loud music and dancing because it was too dull and serious and was in fact not a "party". Also Mays does not wear a suit and tie during his campaign instead he wears jumpsuits and rolls around in a party bus. The person he is running against is made to look like the typical politician who just says what the people want to hear. He says god bless America for everything, sometimes avoiding the question asked.
Gilliam evolves as a politician throughout his campaign. In the beginning he was reading off of the cards that were given to him even if he didn't believe in what he was saying. Then after talking to his brother he began to go off the script and start saying what he believed in. He stood for the people with his motto of "that aint right!". He started to gain a following and went from being blown out to becoming the president.
