By Chris Ariens 

Christmas has come early for Elisabeth Hasselbeck.

President Obama will become the first sitting U.S. President to visit a daytime TV talk show when he tapes an interview on “The View” this Wednesday. Obama is appearing as part of the show’s “Red, White & View” series, which has featured prominent American politicians and discussions on current political issues.

The president will take the hot seat with the show’s five female hosts, including Barbara Walters who is making a special appearance ahead of her official return following heart surgery in May. According to ABC, Walters will return to the program full-time in September.
