And if we want to build on progress on issues like climate change and gender equality and making sure that everybody has health care and making sure that young people have a good education and can afford college, they've got to make sure their voices are heard. "It turns out that young people actually are more interested and engaged than I think we give them credit for," Obama said, adding that his daughter Malia just voted for the first time. Bee asked Obama to talk to her as if she were a millennial voter.

"Young people have a bigger stake in this election than anybody. I would hope that you'd be willing to take the same amount of time that you spend just looking at cat videos on your phone to make sure that the democracy's working." "Sorry," Bee said afterwards. "I was just Snapchatting myself as a bottle-nosed dolphin." Bee also asked Obama what he thought the "female equivalent" of birther controversy would be should Clinton become president.

"I think the equivalent will be 'she's tired, she's moody, she's being emotional,'" Obama said, noting that people are more likely to question why a woman would be ambitious than they would a man. "That theme, I think, will continue throughout her presidency and it's contributed to this notion that somehow she is hiding something." "What a nasty woman," Bee deadpanned. "After you leave office, have you thought of just whispering in Donald Trump's ear 'you were right, I wasn't born here' – just to, like, mess with him?" Bee asked. "I think it's fair to say I will be organising my post-presidency to where I'm not close enough to him to whisper in his ear," Obama replied.
