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.

Does Chelsea’s husband, what’s his name, have a say in this?

I am certain that if hitlery were to somehow get elected, Slick would do everything in his power to show his ass on a regular basis, if for no other reason than to cause strife with hitlery.

The klintoons are a very dysfunctional family, which obviously goes far beyond what we peasants are allowed to see.

I do believe that Slick considers himself superior to hitlery and will do all he can to make sure she never reaches anywhere near being his equal as POTUS.

I think the way they are acting, they consider themselves American royalty.

The tabulation forever starts:

Dem. 247
GOP 0
Remaining 301

As you know, they need only 23 more.

The American people won’t vote for anyone they’ve never heard of; so your scenario is not comical but potential.

HRC would demand two terms to match “America’s Bill”: you will need to push your years upward by four.

It is unfortunate but you are right. Several sectors including the media are treating them like they are more equal than the rest of us.

I am a retired Navy Chief and have been known to utter complete sentences in expletives...not that I’m bragging.

Chelsea is as dumb and ugly as her parents, but not as.... clever. They are grooming her to be a politician and it’s sick and twisted.

I was in the Navy, too. So, I know how to curse. I knew a guy once who’s AA sponsor told him to pray for his enemies. He said he prayed “Okay, by God, God, I pray for those sorry s.o.b.s.
