Chelsea Clinton could take on role of first lady if Hillary wins, White House expert says
(UK) Daily Mail ^ | May 12, 2015 | Francesca Chambers

If the Clintons were to move back into 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, the first daughter, Chelsea, would presumably take on the traditional responsibilities of the first lady, an expert on the White House tells Daily Mail Online.

'There is a social function to the first lady's role, and that will not go away,' C-SPAN co-CEO Susan Swain said. 'Diplomacy' is conducted through social settings, 'and it is important to have somebody in that role.'

Several first daughters have filled the role of hostess in place of their mothers, throughout American history, Swain, the producer of C-SPAN's acclaimed series on America's first ladies and the author of a book on the same subject, said, noting that there is precedent for such an arrangement.

'The best guesstimate with the Clintons is that Chelsea Clinton would take over that role,' Swain said.

Well, from past experience we know that, as First Lady in a Clinton White House, you have to be able to lie very well, have a supreme sense of entitlement, make money doing nothing and think that you were elected as co-president. I think Chelsea could fit the bill.

And that would automatically make Chelsea the most qualified woman, or person of any sort, to be the next president of the US.

Chelsea is going to be very upset when she finds out that Huma has been offered the job instead.

If she became POTUS and was reelected that means we would have had far leftist radicals running the country from 2009 to 2025. Anybody thinks this country could survive that? Hell no. That happens, it’s all over baby.
