The
US President Barack Obama becomes more active on the social network as

journey as a Twitter user back in May,2015 and remarkably has been in
news for hosting Twitter Q&A’s, interacting with stars of the US
Women’s National Soccer team, inviting teen clock-maker Ahmed Mohamed to his place of residence, the famous White House, joking with Bill Clinton and even guacamole recipe preference.
However, now has now joined Facebook to widen his social base. He
started by addressing the climate change and also expressed his desire
to make his Facebook page a place where he can have some real
conversations.
In his very first post, Obama posted a video that provides an insight
through his backyard at the White House and Obama can be seen urging
the Americans to preserve the beautiful place of ours.
Obama said: “Not only do I want future presidents to be able to take
walks like this , I want to make sure that the American people are able
to enjoy the incredible national parks, incredible beauty , the
mountains, the oceans, that have been one of the greatest gifts we’ve
ever received.”
Besides, he wrote that he chose Facebook because “at a time when
nearly three in four adults online use Facebook , this feels like a
great place to do.”
Currently, President Obama’s Facebook page is followed by over 45
million followers and will continue to be run by ‘Organizing for
Action’.
