At Friday night's 2009 Radio and TV Correspondents' Dinner, comedian John Hodgman declared President Obama the first nerd President. Hodgman got into the war between jocks and nerds, tackled the tougher differences dividing nerds and geeks, and then questioned the President on comic book characters. Enjoy!
