By Daniel Kurtzman, About.com Guide

Bill Clinton set the gold standard for presidential comedy with this spoof video, which he screened at the 2000 White House Correspondents' Dinner. Revealing how Clinton spent his final days in office, the video depicts a melancholy Clinton playing battleship with the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, washing his limousine, and trading stocks online, among other amusing antics. Clinton's farewell speech was also full of memorable one-liners as he contemplated his future. Joking that he was more concerned with working on his resume than his memoirs, Clinton said, "Here's what I've got so far. Career objective: To stay President."

Watch Clinton's Final Days spoof video and his hilarious farewell speech.
