Nobody is Talking about Chelsea Clinton’s New Book, Including Chelsea Clinton
Heat Street ^ | February 14, 2017 | Tom Teodorczuk

Last week a new book was published co-written by Chelsea Clinton and entitled Governing Global Health: Who Runs the World and Why?

Almost no one is buying the Clinton title, co-authored by Devi Sridhar, a Global Public Health Professor at the University of Edinburgh. It currently stands at No. 74,374 on the Amazon Bestsellers Chart.

At least give Chelsea credit for having the true writer acknowledged or did Oxford Univ Press force that on her.

Oh, come on. She read the first chapter and suggested they replace baby with fetus on page 4.

It doesn’t sound like an interesting read.

Like most FReepers, I take great pleasure in commenting but not having read the article.

You beat me to it.

Sentence two of the excerpt: Almost no one is buying the Clinton title, co-authored by Devi Sridhar, a Global Public Health Professor at the University of Edinburgh. It currently stands at No. 74,374 on the Amazon Bestsellers Chart.

Just busting you a little.

My daughter manages the Children’s Department at a Barnes and Noble branch in an extremely liberal bastion of the country. I’ll ask her how sales are going.

If her mom had won the book would be doing better. I expect the book was in production before the election and this was an attempt by the Clintons to give Chelsea gravitas.

I guess she will have to get by on her looks.

Politicians write books so that their campaign can buy the books by the thousands. It’s a way to kick campaign money to the person running for office.

When I worked for the Jesse Helms campaign, we had boxes of his book.

My mistake, I was thinking about her other best seller children’s book from last year that is gracing all the dollar stores in America.

This new one isn’t a kids book.

She has not talked about it because no one has told her what is in it.

Who would read a book by a horse-face child of a feminist shrew and a womanizer?

I hear that Chelsea's contribution was to draw the illustrations that went with the book:

While I'm sure she did not co-write this book, I expect that she did not even read it.

So thankful for President DJT!

Clinton ‘big book numbers’ came from massive buys by people who wanted to curry favor - typical corrupt democrats bonding scam.

Now that Clintons are out of power even George Soros’s ‘friends/shills’ won’t drop the cash for a few hundred thousand books...

It’s official. Clinton’s are O-VAR.

All she has to do is go to a book-signing wearing a “Trump” designer dress and it’ll skyrocket to #1. Easy as pie.
