Your support makes all the difference.Out of all the things Barack Obama might have to do before he leaves office, one of them apparently involves some golf practice with Bill Murray.
The Lost in Translation actor joined the outgoing president in the Oval office for some putting practice, per a video posted on The White House’s Twitter account.
Murray is seen gently ribbing Mr Obama about the long-awaited Chicago cubs baseball World Series victory while the two attempted to put a golf ball into a glass.
However, it soon transpires the video had more of a serious message as after Murray, 66, complains of a knee injury.
The rest of the video involves Mr Obama urging the actor to sign up for affordable healthcare as soon as possible.
