Guess Who President Obama Is Not Following On Twitter
CHICAGO (CBS) -- President Barack Obama today launched is very own Twitter account.
Hello, Twitter! It's Barack. Really! Six years in, they're finally giving me my own account.

@POTUS (President Of The United States) spent some time following a few people and organizations.
His wife? Yes
The White House? Yes
Former presidents? Yes. Although one of them wanted to know what Obama plans to do with the @POTUS handle come January 2017.
Welcome to @Twitter, @POTUS! One question: Does that username stay with the office? #askingforafriend

Good question, @billclinton. The handle comes with the house. Know anyone interested in @FLOTUS?

Most major government agencies/cabinet secretaries? Yes
The White Sox? Yes.
Bears, Bulls and Blackhawks? Yes, Yes, Yes
The Chicago Cubs?
No. (As of 3:45 p.m. on Monday, May 18, 2015)
Of course, the president spent his formative political years around Hyde Park, so perhaps one can forgive the slight.
The Cubs, however, cannot.
@POTUS We're big fans of America. Just saying. #YouMissedATeam
