Chelsea’s Invisible Hand
Politico ^ | April 12, 2015 | Kenneth P. Vogel

Posted on 04/13/2015 5:48:22 AM PDT by C19fan

As her mother prepared to launch her second campaign for the presidency, Chelsea Clinton’s staff was compiling an email chronicling the former first daughter’s growing public profile and influence within the family’s sprawling global philanthropy. Sent last month to family insiders from an address in her private domain—@chelseaoffice.com—the email, which was the latest in a series of quarterly Chelsea updates, included links to more than a dozen articles and video clips detailing the charitable efforts of “Chelsea and her family” and “Chelsea and her mom.” It never mentioned her parents, Bill and Hillary Clinton, by name. One article compared Chelsea Clinton’s stage presence to her father’s while in a separate video interview she declared that her peripatetic 20s left her “more able to make a difference now.”

Chelsey reminds me of the many landed twits in the British Aristocracy.

Able to make a difference now with money she never earned, talent she never had, nor brains other than her mother’s.

Right... in the WORST way!

At least European aristocrats usually had breeding, poise and character, no matter HOW stupid and corrupt THEY were!

Chelsea Clinton’s staff??? What the Hell has she done to deserve a staff? I guess its all those accomplishments as an “activist” that we read about in Elle.

This article should have had a barf alert.

Will she ever take her daddy’s name? Hubbell? There is no discounting that bottom lip/catch basin.

nor brains other than her mother’s.

Which is to say, brains that don't exist.

Think how much political graft Hillary will rake in as President as compared to SOS. I bet “The Fourndation” will be worth BILLIONS after 8 more years with the Arkansas Mafia in the White House.

Make no mistake, Hillary has brains and intelligence. But is the intelligence and cunning of evil.

How awesome! [/s]
I’d be far more “impressed” if Chelsea managed to accomplish something totally independent of her parent’s connections and influence. Doubt it will ever happen though.

No kidding.

I read the “staff” thing and immediately thought of poor Anna from
Downton Abbey running around behind Chelsea going “Yes, m’Lady, yes m’Lady”

The question is, are members of Chelsea’s staff forbidden from looking her in the eye? Just like her Mom’s staff is?

Can’t help but wonder if she’ll run for Senator from New York?

I bet the little darling has someone carrying around a silver spoon for her. Not that Chelsey would use it herself. She has someone else designated to feed her.
