Barack Obama on his relationship with Michelle: "It sure helps to be out of the White House"

Former President Barack Obama touched on a slew of big issues facing the country in an exclusive interview with" CBS Mornings" co-host Nate Burleson — but it also got personal.

Obama said that when it comes to his relationship with his wife, Michelle Obama, "it sure helps to be out of the White House, and to have a little more time with her."

He said that when their kids, Malia and Sasha, were growing up, including while the Obamas were in the White House, the girls were Michelle Obama's top priority.
