Dick Van Dyke was in his usual playful mood as he stepped out in Malibu with his wife.
DailyMail.com spotted the 98-year-old actor in great spirits as he headed to lunch at Tramonto Bistro with wife Arlene Silver, 52.
When asked who he would be supporting in the upcoming presidential election, Van Dyke joked: 'I want Abraham Lincoln!'
Unfortunately for Van Dyke, that particular former president won't be on the ballot and he'll likely have to settle for either Donald Trump or Joe Biden for the next four years.

His former make-up artist wife, wearing a bright red top and black pants, accompanied him.
The couple, who married in 2012, were met by several friends and spent about an hour at the trendy Italian eatery.
Van Dyke has lived quite a life. He is only an Oscar away from elite EGOT status and served in the US Army during World War II.
Earlier this month, the actor became the oldest Daytime Emmy nominee in history at age 98.
He was nominated as Guest Performer in a Daytime Drama Series for his part as amnesiac Timothy Robicheaux on soap opera Days of Our Lives.
He has previously won two coveted Daytime Emmy awards and four Primetime Emmys.
Producer Norman Lear was 100 when he received his final Primetime Emmy nomination in 2022 and died the next year.
Among those Van Dyke is up against include Australian actor Guy Pearce for Neighbours.

Dick portrayed cockney jack-of-all-trades Bert alongside Julie Andrews in Robert Stevenson's 1964 Disney classic Mary Poppins
Aside from Mary Poppin, he is also known for his memorable roles in The Dick Van Dyke Show (1961-66), Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (1968) and, most recently, Mary Poppins Returns (2018)
Three of his Primetime Emmy awards came in the 1960s for his classic comedy series The Dick Van Dyke Show.
He's also known for his memorable roles in the beloved children's movies Mary Poppins, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and most recently Mary Poppins Returns in 2018.
He said last year of his role on Days of Our Lives: 'I have played old men before, but comedy old men....This is the first time I ever just played my 97-year-old self.'
In a recent interview with CBS, he revealed he lacked ambition during his younger years and considers himself a 'lazy person' while reflecting on his prolific Hollywood career.
In a sit-down chat with CBS news correspondent Tracy Smith, the legendary entertainer was asked if he planned his career that has spanned more than seven decades in film, television and stage.
'No. I never did. As a businessman, I'm not much good. I would do a movie or something and come home and just sit down and wait for the phone to ring,' he said. 'I wasn't aggressive. So I was out of work a lot because I didn't go out and look for it.'
'And how did that sit with you?,' Smith asked.
'Well, I didn't mind it. I'm pretty lazy really. When I'm having fun, you know, all right. But I'm a lazy person,' he said with a laugh.
