President Barack Obama will make history on Thursday when he becomes the first sitting president to visit a daytime talk show. The President will tape his appearance for The View on Wednesday and the show will air on Thursday:
“We are so pleased and honored that President Obama will be a guest on ‘The View,'” creator and executive producer Barbara Walters says. “The president last appeared on the program in March 2008 while he was still a senator, and First Lady Michelle Obama was a featured guest co-host in June 2008. This shows that both the president and first lady feel that our show is an influential and important source of information and news.”
Thursday’s show will also mark the in-studio return of Barbara Walters who has been out since she underwent heart valve replacement surgery in May.
The full press release follows after the jump.
