Considering that President Barack Obama's staff has already incorporated Twitter, Tumblr, Google+, Instagram and just about every other social media service you can think of into his reelection campaign, it shouldn't come as a surprise that Spotify's been thrown into the mix as well.
As Evolver.fm's Eliot Van Buskirk points out, Obama (or "more likely his staffers"), put together a Spotify playlist and tweeted about it a while ago. While the playlist is no longer accessible, Buskirk explains that it was full of "laughable nonsense" rather than some proper campaign music.
Well, now the Obama team is soliciting song suggestions via Twitter and putting them onto a new Spotify playlist, which is already filled with songs from Bruce Springsteen, Curtis Mayfield, KT Tunstall, Arcade Fire and more. According to the playlist's description, it will be modified throughout November.
So ... are you going to suggest some songs to POTUS? If so, which ones?
