On April 6, comedian Stephen Colbert signed former President Bill Clinton up for a Twitter account @PrezBillyJeff and sent out his first tweet:
Just spent amazing time with Colbert!
Is he sane? He is cool! #cgiu— Bill Clinton (@BillClinton) April 6, 2013
Fourteen hours ago, he sent out his second tweet from the account under its new moniker, @BillClinton:
Sorry I couldn't make it @StephenAtHome. I've been busy with @Clintonfdn work on global heath. Thrs is #WorldMalariaDay you know #Raincheck?
— Bill Clinton (@BillClinton) April 25, 2013
Followed quickly by this:
Excited to join @ChelseaClinton and my good friend @StephenAtHome on Twitter!
— Bill Clinton (@BillClinton) April 25, 2013
Today, his first quasi-substantive tweet:
Congratulations George and Laura on opening @TheBushCenter. Proud Hillary and I could be here. pic.twitter.com/396FW3oPIW
— Bill Clinton (@BillClinton) April 25, 2013
Clinton’s people wisely secured the @PrezBillyJeff name, too, just in case.
