Why this must be read:
After the first part of "The End of Time" aired, there were a lot of baffled Who fans wondering about all the episode's references to President Obama. What was the point? Was there a point?
Until the weirdness was brought to my attention, I just unthinkingly assumed that RTD had read this story, and was making an awkward attempt at a shout-out.
It would be/have been a well-deserved shout-out, because OMG hilarious.
The hardest part is the American accent. The easiest part is the charm. It's something the Master has always had, and he's quite willing to use it to get what he wants, even in this new body. It had occurred to him that there isn't much difference between his regenerations, certainly not as much as there is in the Doctor's. He's differently mad at times, of course, and this time he's closer to sane than in his last one.
He has to achieve certain levels of coherency and not-murdering-his-coworkers to get this far, after all.
The worst part (besides, did he mention, the American accent) is that he has to regularly restrain himself from saying “I am Barack Obama, and you will obey me.” Old habits die hard. The best part is Michelle. It was all he could do to stop her calling herself Jane Doe.
If she were the one getting elected, the Master knows she'd run. She always does.
