The social networking site has reported that a tweet from the president’s account, showing him embracing Michelle, and accompanied with the caption “four more years,” is now the most retweeted message in the history of the site.

After his victory was announced, the President also tweeted, “This happened because of you. Thank you.” and “We’re all in this together. That’s how we campaigned, and that’s who we are. Thank you.”
