Earlier this week, the first ever official twitter account of the American President made its debut. “Doesn’t Obama have a twitter account already?” Yes, I asked that question too. Apparently, this account will be run by the President and the President alone. Normal people just change their Tweetdeck password, but hey, I don’t make the rules.
Anyway, because the internet is full of weirdos, the @POTUS account has already been sent all types of profanity. You people just can’t behave yourselves, unfortunately. Unlike the rest of the internet, which is forever, tweets at the American President are forever to the power of infinity.
how can I make @POTUS listen to my mixtape?

To comply with the Presidential Records Act, the White House policy on online communication explicitly states that all online activity must be archived in the Library of Congress.
On Twitter, the White House automatically archives “tweets” from official White House accounts, “direct messages” sent to or from official White House accounts, and “mentions” (tweets from other users to official White House accounts; these tweets contain an @ and the username of an official White House account (e.g., @WhiteHouse).
So yes, that meme you sent to the American President will be available to your grandkids.
