Sunday, President Obama became the first President to tweet while in office. The White House already has a Twitter account, but this was his first personal tweet. It read, “Being a father is sometimes my hardest but always my most rewarding job. Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there. -BO”. Followers are told that all Tweets are from staffers unless they end with “BO”, then you know Obama wrote them himself.
- I thought JFK was the first president to tweet in the White House!
- Apparently Obama saw how much fun Anthony Weiner had with his Twitter account and decided to join the fun.
- Obama now has another official title: “Commander-in-Tweets”.
