Chelsea Clinton’s ‘It’s Your World’
nytimes.com ^ | 9/14/2015 | Maria Russo

Chelsea Clinton may be, like her mother, a little hard to pin down as a personality, but three things seem inarguable after reading that email: She has a big heart, she writes an excellent policy paper and she is verbose. The voice you hear there addressing “Mom” and “Dad” — both wonky and sweet, impassioned and didactic, a little self-conscious — is pretty much the same one we hear in her new book for children, “It’s Your World.” It’s clear that she indeed wrote it herself, all 400 or so earnest, methodically compiled pages. The book is meant to help kids feel empowered and get involved in making change in the world, and at that length, it’s indeed a mini-behemoth in a genre of children’s books that don’t involve magic and are not written by the likes of J.K. Rowling or Rick Riordan.

I ain't reading it. And if she did write ALL 400 pages I'd be surprised. Le gag.

What kind of atheist crap is ‘it’s your world’?

I won’t even mention that they haven’t reviewed the no. 1 bestseller

This Chelsea. She is a sad character. As off to oblivion as any Kennedy child of the third generation. It took only one for the clintons they despise each other so

The bushes. More astute less greedy but just ugh. George p needs to get back to eork

A worthless piece of human drivel deserves no respect, much less space on FR. Go back to your feed lot in AK.

We stole a sneak peek at the first paragraph:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nam quis consequat ante, at tempus dui. Pellentesque tincidunt, elit et finibus viverra, diam justo ullamcorper ante, nec condimentum lacus diam non odio. Nam pulvinar dignissim urna, ut tincidunt neque bibendum in. Nullam vestibulum dictum sapien, quis elementum tellus hendrerit eu. In consectetur dignissim nisl a finibus. Vivamus sed elit rhoncus, vulputate diam ut, ullamcorper felis. Donec sed congue turpis, vel egestas ante.

400 pages worth of the same follow...

Like a house mortgaged to the hilt, it is not their world so long as there is a debt that is unpaid (and probably unrepayable). Who owns the house? The bank. Who owns the world for her audience (the U.S.)? Whoever holds the debt.

Foreigners own about half.

What happens if the debt cannot be repaid? Then who owns their world?

The book these young people need is “Plunder and Deceit” by Mark Levin.

I’m surprised the author removed her lips from Chelsea’s butt long enough to write the article.
