Of course she's qualified to be a senator. After all, she's a president's daughter

4. Isn't Chelsea too young? You have to be 30 years old. Sorry, Sasha.

9. People are......
Take a look at this PUMA blog

http://texasdarlin.wordpress.com/2008/12/20/chelsea-for-senator/

They're even saying her age doesn't matter, because: "Some say that Chelsea Clinton is not yet eligible for the Senate due to her age, which some claim to be 28. However, since candidates for Congress and President obviously are not required to present long-form birth certificates, or any documentation related to their birth, Chelsea should be fine on this point."

So yeah, some of the fanatics are pimping Chelsea.....

2. If Chelsea, Sasha, or any other sons/daughters of famous families want to get into politics..
they are free to run and let the people decide.

Screw this appointment crap when there are clearly more qualified people around.

5. I have to agree.
Run and get elected, no problem get appointed to replace someone else with no experience at all, big problem!

If this kind of thing continues we will have the same families running things forever! Jeb Bush sounds like he will run for congress, then I am sure for president, and don't forget the George's daughters! I want new faces in congress, and in politics in general. I am all for term limits and getting rid of all the members of congress who have been in office forever, and are mostly in the pockets of lobbyists anyway. Get them out and get in some new blood and allow them only 2 terms in congress, just like we do with the president!

7. Very cute!
As always, Mike Luckovich is a gem! He's about the only thing that's redeeming about the AJC.
