Obama, caught between a tweet and hard place

It’s fair to say that Dahlism is pre-occupied with Twitter but when stories about President Obama calling Kanye West a “jackass” are broke on Twitter, then the world should realize how the lives of public officials and regular folk have changed. Even though his comment was “off-the record”, the casual nature of Twitter and easy of tweeting made this the perfect type of tweet to go viral.

Just another reminder that with great power comes great responsibility and Twitter provides you with both.
