Hundreds of people, many with their daughters and granddaughters, waited in line in and outside Anderson's Bookshop in La Grange Friday night for Chelsea Clinton to sign a copy of her latest book.(snip)
"I like what Chelsea is doing to highlight women," said Evalee Dumas of Darien.
Dumas said the book shows the accomplishments of women and their diversity. The women profiled have different ethnicities, but all have something to give to the world.
"I have two granddaughters and four grandsons and I certainly am going to expose them to these books," she said.
Some people came because they like the Clintons.
"The first president I ever voted for was her father when I was 18," said Heather Eggerding of Brookfield, who brought her 10-year-old daughter, Eva, and another girl, Megan Gray. "And I took Eva with me when I voted for her mother. I've been a Clinton fan for a long time."
Many came for a combination of reasons.
"I voted for her mom," said Jenna Tassoni of La Grange, who admitted she was curious to see what Chelsea looks like in person.

Anderson's presold between 600 and 650 tickets for the signing. Each ticket required the purchase of Clinton's book at Anderson's, and allowed up to four people to attend.
Clinton did not personalize any messages in the book, but she greeted each person warmly, occasionally asking questions.
"Katie Jopa of La Grange (left) says her daughter Amelia, 2, decked out in a "Girls will change the world" shirt, is getting tired as she waits for their turn to meet Chelsea Clinton."

“I like what Chelsea is doing to highlight women”
fundamentally, if “women” need “high-lighting”, then they’re doing something wrong ... they shouldn’t need “high-lighting” if they are already doing high-lighting-worthy activities, because then they would NATURALLY be “high-lighted” WITHOUT the need for special, artificial “high-lighting”.
This is an example of recent trends, to pump up self esteem of young girls, showing girls they can change the world and all that.
I for one am getting sick and tired of this woman thing. We have young boys who are not being encouraged to have confidence in themselves and that the sky’s the limit on what they can do in life. Instead they’re being “pussified” and maligned as being natural born predators against women. ENOUGH OF THIS TRIPE!!!!!!
Again, it’s only a delusion by Satan that brings such admiration. It’s a cult worship thing.
Chicago zoo must have been closed that day.
No.....Boys are being shunned and ignored! VERY SAD!! It’s Men who are going to save us.....women are KILLING THEIR OWN KIDS!
Is there any attempt, to have young boys read books about famous men, to want to achieve great things such as the famous men they might admire? Is there any attempt to tell boys, look at what famous men have achieved, and you are going to grow up to be a man too, similar to how we are telling young girls that they can grow up to be a Madam Curie or a Hillary Clinton?
>>>
Very good questions. Why would you think anyone would flame you for those questions?
So sick of all of this girl power nonsense. The harridans have caused me to come to loathe the color pink.
So hard to believe - don’t these people know what the Clintons have done?
><
The one’s who know don’t care.
I feel sorry for those little children. They are becoming obedient, indoctrinated little robots with no minds of their own.
What has Ms Clinton done with her life to merit this kind of attention?
...
Now, give credit where credit is due. Chelsea has become quite adept at lying and corruption.So she does have some accomplishments.
When the Lefties use a zoomed in photo you know they're lying about the crowd side. For Leftie events they'll exaggerate and for conservatives they'll lowball.
Here's a little wider angle view that slipped by on another site. That's after giving out over 600 tickets, good for over 2400 admissions!
CORRECTION: crowd side = crowd size
Freaks looking at a freak. Go freaks.
“What are your skills?”
Chels: “Nothing, but I typically get paid lots of money due to my family and white privilege.”
“You could always write a book. Good money, you get paid some up front and the ghost writer does most of the work.”
Chels: “WOW! That sounds perfect for me. I’m especially looking forward to the all-expense paid book tour. A chance to see the country.”
It all looks staged/propped, to me. Even the kiddos.
>>>”I like what Chelsea is doing to highlight women,” said Evalee Dumas of Darien”<<<
So did Larry Flynt...
Is this a spoof piece?
They probably have...it’s easy $$$$$
She should have gone all the way and hired extras (like her mother's campaign)... and they won't have had to lie about the 'crowd of hundreds.'
Freak shows always attract crowds.
Scripted Democrats being Scripted
They should be charged with child abuse for taking their children or grandchildren anywhere near the Clintons!
