Not to be outdone by Ann Romney, President Obama Obama 2012 Campaign interns have created an official POTUS Pinterest today and, naturally, PAPERMAG was curious about the sorts of things Obamaites deemed worthy of pinning.

Barry's chili recipe may not be as mouthwatering (in our humble opinion) as Ann Romney's photos of banana bread, pistachio cake, or granola cups but it's still early yet.  We'll keep an eye out for Michelle's apple cobbler recipe before we make the final call on who's the bigger foodie.

The Obama team is wisely tapping into the "cute pets on the internet" zeitgeist by giving Bo his own campaign slogan and putting up a board dedicated to -- what else? -- peoples' pets.

The Obama team must feel that along with photos of knitted jewelry, homemade gluten-free brownies and panoramic landscape photos, the Pinterest community is interested in ogling facts about healthcare legislation and the economy.

The cute photos of the Obamas -- whether this candid shot of POTUS and FLOTUS or staged family pics -- show that they can rival the photogenicity of the Romney brood any day.

A rad, street art-style painting and a Spotify mention in the same post?  Damn, those post-graduate staffers know what's up.

Support Obama while wearing these knee socks -- we suggest you pair them with a pair of lamé track shorts for the full Boogie Nights effect.  Because nothing says you're patriotic and politically engaged than channeling a bunch of 70s porn stars.
