Remember our first digital, social media and tech savvy Preezy? The one who held Facebook and Google Hangout town hall meetings, a Reddit AMA (ask me anything) forum and is a frequent user of Twitter (remember when he adorably referred to it as Twitters in what can only be called a W moment?), YouTube, Pinterest, Instagram, and email blasts?...
Well then, this is embarrassing; even though BO has his own iPhone it appears that he still relies on his so-last-century Black-Barry for day-to-day communications and may not be so tech-savvy when it comes to the oh-so-trendy iPhone.

I suspect they are trying to protect a Union-managed health insurance program, such as the one that was recently eliminated in Wisconsin. That plan was a cash-cow for the Union, and paid for all of the costs and overhead for the Union, with enough money left over for sky-high executive salaries, buying politicians and a little for spreadin' around.
When Wisconsin dropped the Union-managed health insurance plan, the teachers got better care and costs were cut by more than half. The state went from a deficit to a surplus over-night.
Needless to say, the union is going to fight tooth and nail to keep this from happening in Chicago...
I wonder who programmed the contact info into his Blackberry?
From the look of things, not him!
Do you mean an Iphone can be used to make phone calls? I thought all it was good for was apps.
