Yeah, politics again, but this is pretty rich.
Doctor Who will be filming in the U.S. for the first time, and part of that plot apparently includes the Doctor meeting (a) President of the United States. Assuming it's Obama, somebody remarks that "Oh great, he finally meets the president and it's the worst one since Carter.", and follows it up with comments about FDR.
This is actually a very strange comment. Not only because Doctor Who is, from what I can tell, the most politically correct franchise I can think of. Not only because the fanbase is the most pinko-commie collection of liberals you'll find on the internet. (Yes, that includes anime) But because Doctor Who is a nationalized TV show.
