President Barack Obama is paying a visit to ABC's ''The View'' this week. Obama is scheduled to tape a sit-down with the ladies of ''The View'' on July 28 - the show will air on Thursday, July 29, 2010. According to ABC, this is the first time a sitting president has ever appeared on a daytime TV talk show. A White House press release says President Obama will discuss such "hot" topics as jobs, the state of the economy, his administrations successes and the Gulf oil spill.

''The View'' executive producer and co-host Barbara Walters will make a special appearance for the Obama show. Walters has been on leave from ''The View'' since undergoing open heart surgery in May of 2010.


This isn't Obama's first time on ''The View.'' He was interviewed on the show in March of 2008 when he was a presidential candidate. Obama has also appeared on late night talk shows, including ''Late Night with David Letterman'' and ''The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.'' President Obama's wife, First Lady Michelle Obama, co-hosted ''The View'' in June of 2008.

Some Washington insiders aren't entirely happy with the President's ''View'' appearance. Pennsylvania Democratic Governor Ed Rendell says the ABC show is beneath the "dignity of the presidency."

How hard will the interview be for Obama? ''Time Magazine'' points out it may not be an "easy interview" for the president, given past history. During Obama's last ''View'' appearance, conservative co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck "grilled" the president about the scandal involving pastor Jeremiah Wright.
