Stephen Colbert Forces Bill Clinton to Join Twitter [VIDEO]: 'Colbert Report' Host Convinces Former President to Start Tweeting, @PrezBillyJeff

Stephen Colbert hosted an interview with former President of the United States of America, Bill Clinton, over this past weekend at the annual meeting for the Clinton Global Initiative. The conversation was then broadcast on Monday night as a special episode of Comedy Central's "The Colbert Report." As usual, Colbert was in character with his iconic "faux-conservative" attitude coming out. The two talked about charity, education, and opportunities at home and abroad. Then the conversation turned to how technology has changed since his Clinton's presidency, leading into Colbert forcing the former President to joining Twitter.

The two discussed how we all are able to communicate these days with the use of social media and the Internet in general. Bill Clinton is very active in terms of the Internet. He admittedly uses and enjoys Facebook but has never had a Twitter account. Until now.

Stephen Colbert set up an account for Clinton in preperation for the show, claiming that most of the more appropriate Twitter handles were taken. So Colbert gave him the name "PrezBillyJeff," which seemed to amuse the former commander in chief.

Here is the first tweet, which Clinton dictated to Colbert, for the former President's official Twitter account @PrezBillyJeff:

Just spent amazing time with Colbert!Is he sane? He is cool! #cgiu

A few other tweets were posted to the account but are no longer up, most likely because they did not come from the former President. One read, "I'm Bill Clinton and I approve this tweet, because I wrote it, because, like I said, I'm Bill Clinton.#notColbertpretendingtobeme."

That seems pretty suspect, right?

Here is the video clip from this weekend's "Colbert Report" where Stephen set up Bill's Twitter account and then the former President dictated his first tweet to the late night television host:
