Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton turned 70 years old on Thursday, Oct. 26, and her 37-year-old daughter, Chelsea took to Twitter to celebrate, along with many others. The two have a history of sweet moments together, but Chelsea Clinton's tweet for Hillary Clinton's birthday is so adorable that it might just top all the other ones. Chelsea tweeted a childhood photo of her and her mother at a kitchen table saying, "Happy Birthday Mom! So thankful for every birthday & every year we’ve shared. Looking forward to many more!"
Chelsea wasn't the only family member to reach out over social media. Hillary's husband, former President Bill Clinton, also sent out a birthday tweet, saying, "70 has never looked so beautiful. Happy birthday, @hillaryclinton!"
So far, Hillary has not responded publicly to the tweets or explicitly acknowledged her own birthday on social media. Instead, however, she seems to be celebrating her birthday in a very Hillary-specific way: By talking about policy.

Why not send her a card? Call her on the phone? Why use Twitter?
Elite Daily? I am continually amazed by the adulation and attention shown to people, apparently, just because a lot of other people show them lots of attention.
70 years behind bars will look much better on her.
More like : 70 never looked more evil.
“Why not send her a card? Call her on the phone? Why use Twitter?”
Can’t you do all 3? I think many people do all of those things and more. I would imagine that there will be a big party for Hillary as 70 is a big milestone. I know mot Americans have a party for the big 7-0.
“Sweet” is about the last word in the language you could come up with when describing Hillary Clinton (it might be in a tie with “honest”).
71 in an orange jumpsuit will look even better.
“Why not send her a card? Call her on the phone? Why use Twitter?”
I think that is odd. Why is it not enough to wish her mother a happy birthday, on her own? Why does she want to SHOW so many people that she is doing so? It’s virtue signaling. And I also think it means that Hillary’s birthday really doesn’t mean that much to her - or else a private birthday wish would satisfy, and she wouldn’t care if anyone else knew she did it.
For the publicity.....getting the "happy family" image in the media is the name of the game.
Chelsea is probably the only person on Earth who genuinely loves her.
Every together guilty as sing yet free as a bird...
So Hillary’s reached her retirement age then?
Mom always DID like Huma best.
Typically (at least with my kids), we send gifts, cards and make the Happy Birthday sing-a-long phone call behind the scenes. And on Facebook, we will post some cute childhood pic with a birthday greeting for the benefit of others. More of a good excuse to do a little prideful boasting about your totally awesome kids. :-)
Lucky kid, Webb’s looks and mother’s cankles.
Who in the world tweets their mom on her birthday. Everyone knows it’s better to send a text like I do.
Funny how "uber tech savvy" Hill no longer asks anyone if there are "facebooks" about her!
May she have her 71st birthday in matching chrome bracelets and anklets!
