Jon Stewart Calls Out Obama on Social Media Overload [VIDEO]

The Daily Show‘s Jon Stewart is fed up with President Barack Obama’s constant tweeting, checking in and, most of all, his emails asking for donations.

“Seriously, there are exiled Nigerian princes getting Obama campaign emails going, ‘Ease up on the money thing, fella,’” Stewart said jokingly.

Obama’s campaign revolutionized digital’s and social media’s use in presidential campaigns during his 2008 bid. As his re-election campaign begins to build up steam, it’s turning to supporters for donations — often sending emails with friendly subject lines such as “hey” or “dinner?” to entice people into opening them. Unfailingly, these emails end with a call to action to donate to the president’s campaign — much to Stewart’s dismay.
