Joe Biden, the Vice President of the United States, decided to enter the selfie game with a bang: he took a selfie with none other than the President himself, Barack Obama. Not bad for a beginner, huh?

The caption of the selfie photo, taken in the back of a car and posted on Instagram, reads "Found a friend to join my first selfie on Instagram. Thanks for following and stay tuned. –VP"

Posted early today, the photo already has more than 21,000 likes on Instagram and more than 11,000 favorites on Twitter. It's still not in the "Oscar selfie" territory, but we're sure it will be among the most popular selfies out there.
