Introducing @POTUS

Well ladies and gentlemen, the wait is over.

If you want an inside look into the stream of consciousness of the POTUS, you can now read some of his thoughts via his personal Twitter account.

According to an annoucement on The White House’s blog, “The @POTUS Twitter account will serve as a new way for President Obama to engage directly with the American people, with tweets coming exclusively from him. President Obama is committed to making his Administration the most open and participatory in history, and @POTUS will give Americans a new venue to engage on the issues that matter most to them.”

The blog post goes on to state that the president is “committed to making his Administration the most open and participatory in history, and @POTUS will give Americans a new venue to engage on the issues that matter most to them.

The president’s first tweet?

Obama’s new Twitter account comes two years after his wife, Michelle Obama, joined to social media network. It looks like he’s got some catching up to do as the @FLOTUS has close to 2 million followers and 2,000 tweets.
