do much that isn't political. I don't hold to political dynasties in democratic societies whether Kennedy, Bush or Clinton. Hillary needs to retire to a lucrative job with Bill on the speaking circuit.
As for Chelsea, before going to work for NBC to plug the folks tax exempt foundations while serving on their boards, she worked for these guys:
http://www.mckinsey.com
http://www.avenuecapital.com/
If you remember, Bill was the bully pulpit boy for NAFTA and led the charge for the repeal of Glass-Steagall. He was also a spirited defender of the DLC. The Clinton's need to go away, just like the Bushes.

2016 Campaign. My daughter would do it for me if I was a Clinton. She's doing what she believes in. But, doesn't mean we have to Buy Into It! Her parents are Politicians...and she is considered a Contender for the FUTURE of her Parents.

So...was she down there cleaning up debris in New Jersey or Long Island Coasts? What was she doing that I should really be interested in her?

Democrats? Has she been down to Jersey Shore, NY/LI/CT?

When has she gotten her hands dirty working for the PEOPLE who look to Democrats for Workers Rights, Civil Liberties, Human Rights, Environmental Protections, Consumer Activism, Regulation of Banks and Food Quality Supervision and an END TO WARS that are UNDECLARED!

Do you have Chelsea's Tweets supporting any of these Democratic Party Ideals which Separate us from the Republican Party?

I wondered what she'd been doing except supporting her Parents for Election 2016? And, that surely she's seen the promotion of HERSELF as a future contender for President?

Should "TWEETS" be the way we do Campaigns for Dem Party?

Remember...I was called a "Hater" by the OP. I am a lifelong DEM...and have seen them all. But, if Chelsea Tweets ....shouldn't we ask WHAT IS CHELSEA ABOUT? Where does SHE STAND on ISSUES?

I feel I can certainly have a right as a Democrat to question her since she's obviously working for her Mom and (Dad in the background) ticket for 2016.

You see where I'm coming from? I don't like candidates forced down my mouth when we are only into the first year of the President we just ELECTED!

and reading your other posts here, I'm not surprised at Mimi's reaction. She posted a nice thread about Chelsea DOING something nice and she got grief for it, as if she had posted some Libertarian fucker's mantra.

She said I was a hater for questioning a TWEET from Chelsea Clinton?

You are a reasonable person.....you know I would not consider a TWEET from the Daughter of a former President and a Presidential Contender for 2016 (so we've been told) to be put out there without questioning why I should be ENTHRALLED with a TWEET!

You know me better than that!

Peace!

in TWEETS something that I should consider PROFOUND, though.

You never answered...just packing your cards up off the table and crying that you've "GIVEN UP."

It's POLITICS. WHY ARE CHELSEA's TWEETS....IMPORTANT?

and not "Chelsea Clinton Fan Club."

Based on one TWEET! That's what I was trying to say...and I never got an answer to my questions but, folks felt that I was unfairly "challenging" the OP.

I thank her for her post...but she should not expect not to be questioned like the rest of us are when there are differing opinions and questions are asked but not answered about the OP and why ONE TWEET...is not to be asked about.

Just Saying...it's DU...and folks are questioned all the time and have to stand up and defend what they post.
