Hillary Clinton's daughter will run for US President?

Hillary Clinton still appears to be the Democratic frontrunner as no one has emerged as a top contender since her defeat.

Hillary Clinton may still be going through a rough patch after her 2016 loss to Republican Donald Trump. And that may explain why many people think her daughter, Chelsea Clinton, is being groomed for a political run.

Amid online rumors about various political positions Chelsea may hold, Fox and Friends Weekend asked if Chelsea has her eye on the 2020 US Presidential election? If so, are her parents grooming the next generation of Clintons for the White House?

According to The Inquisitr, the Clintons are something of a dynasty. With Hillary’s chances of running in 2020 seemingly nil, are they preparing their daughter to follow in her footsteps? There’s some evidence that this may be true, but is that something Democrats want?

In any case, there is a “Chelsea Clinton for President” website online, which shows how seriously some people are taking the idea. And there are plenty of Facebook statuses about Chelsea running.

There is also growing speculation that Chelsea might consider running for the Senate in 2020. This is a traditional step up the political ladder leading to a White House run. But it is also possible that Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea Clinton could use a “jump-start” strategy, skipping the Senate and going straight to the White House.

The Inquisitr newspaper commented that Chelsea would satisfy many positive aspects that supporters saw in Hilary Clinton in the 2016 race. If Hillary won, she would be the first female President of the United States. If Chelsea ran and won, she would also be the first female President.

Chelsea is a Clinton and those who love Hillary are likely to vote for her daughter. But while Hillary supporters may be happy with Chelsea's presence in the White House, what do Democrats think of the prospect?

According to Newsweek, a recent Harvard-Harris poll asked voters who they wanted the Democratic Party to choose as its next nominee. Among the notable names, Hillary appeared quite low on the list, even behind Elizabeth Warren.

This result seems to suggest that Hillary Clinton is not the one who gives the Democrats a good chance of controlling the White House in 2020.

However, according to Breitbart News, Robby Mook - Hillary Clinton's campaign manager - still does not want to remove her name from the list of possible candidates in 2020.

The question is: Is this part of a strategy to keep the ball in Clinton's court? And with many eyes still on Hillary for her next move, it gives Hillary a platform to slowly plant the seeds for her next generation of candidates to run for office.

But right now, many people don’t care that Chelsea Clinton will run for office. In fact, this girl has not done anything to compete for a public office, let alone the US President’s seat.
