Have you read Clinton’s new book, “Back To Work?”
It has many suggestions that seem practical and sensible.
I was surprised by the Green Technology ideas, that would
address both economic and environmental problems.
Get this book and read it. Or, like me, take the easy route.
I listen to the audiobook. It’s available at iTunes, amazon and Premieraudiobooks.com I chose Premier as it is cheapest.
This book deserves a wide reading and much discussion.
Clinton’s ideas, I hope will be given a chance to work.
His presidency looks better and better, as I look back at it.

If Chelsea has half the brains that her mom and dad do, then she is probably smarter than most of the journalist already working.

Anyway, in a world where the number-one rated cable news service offers little real news at all, but indulges in editorializing,rumor mongering, and speculating, then hiring Chelsea Clinton might actually raise the bar!

I say, “Give the lady a chance.”.

Does anyone outside America care remotely whether this woman is a journalist or not? In fact how many people inside America are bothered? What on earth is this sort of trivia doing on Reuters?

I killed my television long ago, it’s all controlled mindless propaganda from the top all the way down to the local clueless bobbleheads.

I wholehardly agree. She has done her homework on the World and has been an intelligent observer without resorting to ‘Twittering’ to demosnstrate she’s in the ‘in’ group.

I look forward to seeing her and listening to her views. She will do her homework nad stand on her own abilities.

I distinctly remember several right wing pundits criticizing Chelsea’s looks when she was a teenager. I’m pretty sure she’ll be great at this job and will make more money than any of the silly twits who made their off color comments years ago. It’ll serve them right, and I look forward to it.

There is no shame in taking advantage of your parents’ status (stati?). Maybe that’s the problem…

Jack, if you abandon meritocracy in the news business you kill the news business.

Period.

Luke Russert. He wasn’t even somebody. He was just somebody’s kid.

For a country that’s not supposed revolve around ‘x’ amount of family trees there sure is a lot of it going on. Is not america supposed to be immune to the creation of these dynasty families? These crony placements completely lay bare the lie that is the ‘american dream’. If it’s not about who you know in today’s world it’s about who you can buy. Hard work? Effort? Nope, just another kid of the rich that gets mommy or daddy to get them a job. The only thing these people know how to produce goes down the toilet every morning. Hey Jack, did YOU get your job the hard way (you know, earn it) or did mommy make a call for YOU?
