I wouldn't want my picture on the front page of every paper, but if it was, the statue wouldn't bother me. If it did, I'd just move the podium.
Anyway maybe they can't change where he holds press conferences, due to logistical reasons.
That is a possibility, but I doubt something as trivial as moving a podium is impossible.
That statue is another FDR legacy, I could do without.
I'd prefer to work on undoing FDR's influence in government policy first, and worry about this statue later.
Talking to the nation in front of a national landmark? Why would anyone feel anything but proud?
