July 30, (THAINDIAN NEWS) Yesterday the president of USA Barack Obama appeared on The View, of ABC network and enthralled the hosts as well as the viewers of the popular daytime talk show. With this he became the first ever incumbent US president to take part in such a TV show. The show proved to be exclusive for a number of reasons. It marked the comeback of Barbara Walters who missed several episodes of the show owing to her cardiac ailments. As expected the president was asked several serious and light hearted questions and he was prompt with his answers. However his answer to the question what sort of music he stores on his iPod surprised many viewers.

The president said that he basically listens to the songs of Jay Z and also likes the music of Frank Sinatra. However, when he said that he does not listen to the songs of Canadian teen singer Justin Bieber it came as a shocker for many, particularly for the teen fans of the cute faced singer. However the President met with the singer earlier and said that he considers the young singer to be a nice guy.

Justin Bieber also performed at The White House and it is surprising for his fans to believe that the president does not keep his songs on his music player after that. The singer was witty enough to get back to the comment made by the President and suggested on his Twitter account that the President could listen to two of his popular tracks. It is quite a smart move on his part and shows that he stays updated.
