Politics Might Be In Her Future, Chelsea Clinton Hints
NPR ^ | 10/18/2012 | Mark Memmott

Posted on 10/18/2012 7:22:48 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

Though she's dipped her toe into the world of TV journalism, we don't hear a lot from Chelsea Clinton about whether she might one day get into the family business.

But now the BBC has posted an interview in which the daughter of former President Clinton and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton doesn't rule out getting into politics herself.

"I don't know. I honestly don't know," she responds when asked, before adding that just saying that is a big change. In the past, the younger Clinton says, she would have ruled out any such notion. But her mother's 2008 presidential campaign has her rethinking things.

And, "I certainly feel a strong call of public service," says the 32-year-old Clinton.

Mama just dropped a great big load in the path of that career move. I wonder if Chelsea is as articulate as Caroline Kennedy?

She should be flipping burgs this ugly moron. As usual she will get ahead because she is a Clinton.

“Drudge had a story up that she’s undertaking a War against Diarrhea. I kid you not...”

I haven’t read that, but if she is genuinely concerned about
this more power to her. It is one of the main killers of
third world children. It doesn’t have the cache of AIDS or
breast cancer so it doesn’t get the support of the types who
are more concerned with promoting their own good works than
actually doing some real good. P.J. O’Rourke wrote about
this in “All the Trouble in the World”

Well, she is stupid, ugly, no experience or credentials, has money. Therefore she is a highly qualified candidate in the Democratic Party. She now only needs to go out and have sex with a lot of indiscriminate people and children if available.

She need to have someone write a book for her about why she hates America and make friencds with Megyn McCain and Rosie Odonnel.

She’s been a reporter for NBC and worked for a hedge fund, her next step is to become a community organizer. She’s going to make a great dog catcher someday. She’s got the face for one.

I hope she avoids working for a sexual predator politician like her father.

Note to Chesea: Keep your regular job, dear. Politics is not your forte.
