"You look so fantastic and full of energy, I can’t believe you’re 90 years old. In fact, I don’t believe it. That’s why I’m writing to ask if you will be willing to produce a copy of your long-form birth certificate."

- President Obama's birthday message to actress and comedian Betty White, who turned 90 on Tuesday. The president made a cameo Monday night on the NBC special "Betty White's 90th Birthday Party," writing White a note, putting her picture in the Oval Office and listening to the Golden Girls theme song "Thank You for Being a Friend" on his headphones. White shares a birthday with first lady Michelle Obama.
