President Obama can be seen on camera golfing in Martha's Vineyard as Tuesday's 5.8 magnitude earthquake shook the east coast in the CBS News video.

Obama held a conference call with top administration officials shortly after the earthquake, according to the White House.

He asked to be regularly updated on the aftermath of the earthquake.
