Snoop Dogg for Twitter CEO. Let’s Make This Happen

Investors are assailing Twitter for not living up to its full potential—so much so that CEO Dick Costolo stepped down yesterday. But at least some power users are out there reminding us just how uniquely awesome Twitter can be.

The idea isn’t as crazy as it sounds. For more than two decades, Snoop has shown an uncanny ability to surf the ever-sloshing currents of media and entertainment to stay popular and relevant.
