Chelsea Clinton: Someday, someone's mother will be president

By jocelyn noveck, ap national writer

NEW YORK — Apr 21, 2017, 6:52 PM ET

Chelsea Clinton stayed away from politics and stuck to the subject of childhood obesity Friday at a Variety magazine event honoring prominent women and their charity work — except for her last line.

Responding to a pointed quip hours earlier from emcee Vanessa Bayer, a "Saturday Night Live" cast member, that none of the honorees' mothers was president of the United States, Clinton reminded her that maybe not, "but someday, someone's (mother) will be." The line got one of the biggest cheers of the afternoon.

Honored at the Variety Power of Women: New York awards along with Clinton, who spoke of her work with the Alliance for a Healthier Generation, were actresses Blake Lively, Jessica Chastain and Audra McDonald, TV personality Gayle King and businesswomen Tina Knowles-Lawson and Shari Redstone.

There were a number of references to Bill O'Reilly and his firing by Fox News Channel after several sexual-harassment allegations, which he denies. Gretchen Carlson, the former Fox anchor whose sexual-harassment lawsuit against then-Fox chairman Roger Ailes triggered his downfall and set the stage for O'Reilly's, received a huge ovation at the start of the event and a thank you from Lena Dunham at the podium.

"When you work in a corporate infrastructure the challenge of coming out about sexual harassment is so massive," said Dunham, who was introducing Chastain. "And to see a woman who surmounted that and bravely made space for other women to do the same is just deeply inspiring."

It’s quite simple really. Sooner or later men will have to be excluded from holding elected office. Because.....well, just because.

WHEN we have a woman that can represent our Country the way that LePen is representing France, maybe, but it certainly isn’t going to be a Clinton, A Bush or A bami...so take yourself and go back to whatever rock you crawled out of!!!

And she uses the mother word loosely. The mentally ill liberals concentrate on what you are not who you are. Look at the empty suit we had for 8 years the only thing that was important to them is he was black.
