Though she's dipped her toe into the world of TV journalism, we don't hear a lot from Chelsea Clinton about whether she might one day get into the family business.
But now the BBC has posted an interview in which the daughter of former President Clinton and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton doesn't rule out getting into politics herself.
"I don't know. I honestly don't know," she responds when asked, before adding that just saying that is a big change. In the past, the younger Clinton says, she would have ruled out any such notion. But her mother's 2008 presidential campaign has her rethinking things.
And, "I certainly feel a strong call of public service," says the 32-year-old Clinton.
It beats working for a living I guess.
Probably looking to get on the gravy train.
Why?
Because she just so LOVE those pesky little people she’s going to ‘represent’?
Daddy Webb and Mommy Hillary would be SO proud!
Liberals’ view of ‘public service’ is not your normal ‘public service’.
Why won’t she enlist?
translation = If you can’t make it in your own, let Daddy make it all better.
“I certainly feel a strong call of public service,”
There are so many ways to serve the public that don’t involve personal gain from a political career.

I imagine she is probably torn between a life of politics or her own tv reality show.
Why not?
Politics is the last refuge of those who cannot do anything else.
And she most certainly qualifies.
So how well did she do in the corporate world, did she find her niche, and gain respect of her counterparts. This is important. But if it’s about politics, name recognition alone will sometimes get you elected. Just like it was for Jesse Jackson Jr.
Wasn’t she “let go” from her tv job?
Gosh, she looks like her dad, Webb.
Webster Hubble would be so proud of his daughter.
Worked for Her Thighness, didn’t it?
Look at HRC’s actual record. In “public service”. One her own merit.
She needs to marry a hunky guy with no morals first.
Exactly. She has failed at the other jobs she has tried or got bored with them so now its time to try politics! And sadly, as with the Kennedys, there will be some Lib district that has a slavish devotion to the Clinton name that will elect her.
She’a already married. Are you suggesting her husband is UN-hunky and moral? :)
