Obama Tweets That He Likes Girl's Purple Hair During Twitter Q&A, Makes Her Day

LOOK: The Tweet From Obama That Made This Girl's Day

While signing onto Twitter to present his case in "fiscal cliff" discussions with Congress, President Barack Obama inadvertently made one girl's day.

His personable side came out several times during Monday's session, in which he answered questions from Twitter users. One of them came from Mandi Roberts, who asked the following:

@barackobama #My2k As a recent college grad w/o a full time job, these cuts wouldn't help me, would they?

Obama promptly tweeted a reply, which ended in a sweet compliment.

And it was exciting!

@mstevesmithjr OH MY GOD THE PRESIDENT ANSWERED ME! And he likes the purple hair I had a few years ago. I AM SHAKING.

When Roberts' newfound Internet stardom made its way to the Rachel Maddow Show, things got even better.

Oh my god. The President AND Rachel Maddow? I might cry I am so excited.
