Just thought I'd highlight the story recently that Obama conducted a Town Hall type meeting in which he responded to questions asked via Twitter. The chosen questions were selected by algorithms that pooled the most popular topics.
One of the questions was from House Speaker and leader of the opposition, John Boehner, who said,
"After embarking on a record spending binge that's left us deeper in debt, where are the jobs?"
I find the subtle but serious political jockeying to be funny, and the "coolness quotient" of Obama using Twitter like this to also be interesting.
Thoughts?
