<p><a href="http://www.thejournal.ie/barack-obama-has-joined-pinterest-and-posted-the-obama-family-chilli-recipe-398200-Mar2012/">Joining</a> the ranks of <a href="http://gawker.com/5887097/why-do-mormons-including-mitt-romneys-wife-love-pinterest">Mormons</a> and craft-obsessed ladies on image sharing social network <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/">Pinterest</a> is none other than Barack Obama, our very own President. Apparently the commander-in-chief has more to worry about than potential <a href="http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-500395_162-57404630/pinterest-tightens-copyright-rules/">copyright</a> infringements.</p>
<p><!--more-->The Pinterest <a href="http://pinterest.com/barackobama/">page</a> isn't exactly run by President Obama himself--like most of his social networks, the bio box says it's manned by Obama for America, the president's social media-savvy campaign machine. But the team certainly knows the Pinterest-friendly way to an audience's heart: current boards include "<a href="http://pinterest.com/barackobama/obamart/">ObamArt</a>," "<a href="http://pinterest.com/barackobama/obama-inspired-recipes/">Obama-inspired recipes</a>" and adorable family photos pinned to the board "<a href="http://pinterest.com/barackobama/the-first-family/">The First Family</a>."</p>
<p>Despite <a href="http://pinterest.com/barackobama/pet-lovers-for-obama/">photos</a> of First Dog Bo and a detailed Obama family chili <a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/276408495849969703/">recipe</a>, President Obama still has less than 1,000 followers. Perhaps because <a href="http://www.observer.com/2012/02/for-romney-family-pinterest-is-a-double-edged-sword/">many</a> of Pinterest's users are actually members of Mitt Romney's family?</p>
<p>Actually, now that we think about it, what is POTUS doing on Pinterest anyway? Shouldn't he be on <a href="http://www.betabeat.com/2012/03/22/dudes-like-dude-stuff-and-other-discoveries-from-the-atlantics-take-on-bropinning/">Gentlemint</a>, bropinning photos of well-groomed mustaches and oil paintings of sailboats? Helping to <a href="http://pinterest.com/pin/276408495849970058/">shatter</a> glass ceilings, indeed.</p>
