“This is called ‘The Beast,’ basically a caddy on a tank frame,” Obama said of his limo. “I could call a nuclear submarine right from here — I bet you don’t have that in your car. It’s a cool feature — plus, seat warmers.”
The president and Seinfeld chatted about what it’s like to be famous, their morning routines and what life is like in the White House.

At the end of the segment, Seinfeld let Obama take the wheel of his Corvette.
“You know what, this is a childhood dream,” Obama said as he climbed into the driver’s seat. “This is outstanding.”
Seinfeld said even though the president is not a comedian, he’s landed enough jokes to qualify to be on his show.
