"Larry Hernandez: El Presidente" begins with mun2 host Yarel Ramos interviewing the award-winning artist on the social and political progress Latinos have made in recent years. Larry expresses how proud he is of the advancements U.S. Latinos have made, and shares his dream of being the President of the United States. He then falls into a humorous dream sequence showcasing what it would be like if Larry had the keys to the White House.
