Chelsea Clinton

Chelsea Victoria Clinton was born in Little Rock, Arkansas on February 27, 1980. She is the only child of Hillary and Bill Clinton. Her name was inspired by a visit to the Chelsea neighborhood of London during a Christmas 1978 vacation. Hillary said that upon hearing the 1969 Judy Collins recording of the Joni Mitchell song "Chelsea Morning", Bill remarked, "If we ever have a daughter, her name should be Chelsea".{{cite book|last=Clinton|first=Hillary Rodham|title=Living History|title-link=Living History (book)|publisher=Simon and Schuster|year=2003|isbn=978-0-7432-4582-1|pages=[https://archive.org/details/livinghistory00clin/page/n101 84]–85, 91, 93|author-link=Hillary Clinton}}{{cite book|author=Mani, Bonnie G.|year=2007|title=Women, power, and political change|publisher=Lexington Books|page=218}}{{cite news|url=https://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9F0CE6DD1E3BF93AA25752C0A965958260|date=January 19, 1993|title=The Inauguration: Shedding Light on a Morning and a Name|work=The New York Times|access-date=December 6, 2009|archive-date=December 6, 2008|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081206024222/http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9F0CE6DD1E3BF93AA25752C0A965958260|url-status=live}}

When Clinton was two years old, she accompanied her parents as they campaigned throughout Arkansas for her father's gubernatorial race. She learned to read and write at a very young age. Clinton claims that she started reading the newspaper by the age of three and also wrote a letter to President Ronald Reagan when she was only five.{{cite news|url=https://people.com/books/chelsea-clintons-letter-to-ronald-reagan-revealed-in-her-new-book/|title=Read the Letter 5-Year-Old Chelsea Clinton Wrote to Ronald Reagan|date=September 12, 2015|work=People|access-date=May 10, 2017|language=en-US|archive-date=February 28, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230228030347/https://people.com/books/chelsea-clintons-letter-to-ronald-reagan-revealed-in-her-new-book/|url-status=live}} In the letter, which was photocopied and preserved by her father, she asked President Reagan not to visit a military cemetery in West Germany that includes graves of Nazi soldiers.

As a young child, Clinton was raised in her father's Southern Baptist faith.{{cite web|url=https://www.christianpost.com/news/chelsea-clinton-insulting-mother-christian-faith-hillary-abortion-baptist-methodist-157418/|title=Chelsea Clinton Reveals She Left Baptist Church Over Abortion, Insulted When People Question Hillary's Faith|website=The Christian Post|date=February 11, 2016|access-date=January 13, 2017|archive-date=April 4, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230404203117/https://www.christianpost.com/news/chelsea-clinton-insulting-mother-christian-faith-hillary-abortion-baptist-methodist-157418/|url-status=live}}

Hillary Clinton followed the advice of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis on raising children in the White House, and asked the press to limit coverage of Chelsea to her participation in public events such as state visits. Margaret Truman, daughter of former president Harry S. Truman, supported the Clintons, and in March 1993 wrote a letter to the editor of The New York Times about the damage that could be done if the press made Chelsea a subject of intense coverage.{{cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/1993/03/21/magazine/l-the-chelsea-show-151593.html|title=The Chelsea Show—Letter to the Editor|last=Daniel|first=Margaret Truman|date=March 21, 1993|work=The New York Times|access-date=March 8, 2016|archive-date=June 1, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230601232848/https://www.nytimes.com/1993/03/21/magazine/l-the-chelsea-show-151593.html|url-status=live}}

Throughout her father's time in the White House, journalists debated the issue of allowing Clinton to retain her privacy. Most media outlets concluded that she should be off-limits due to her age, although Rush Limbaugh and Saturday Night Live both broadcast material mocking her appearance.{{cite news |last=Nevius |first=C.W. |date=January 22, 2004 |title=Just ask Chelsea, Jenna and Barbara: Escaping the glare of the spotlight isn't easy for kids whose dads work in the Oval Office |work=San Francisco Chronicle |url=https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/nevius/article/Just-ask-Chelsea-Jenna-and-Barbara-Escaping-the-2808210.php |access-date=August 14, 2010 |archive-date=October 18, 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121018134742/http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/nevius/article/Just-ask-Chelsea-Jenna-and-Barbara-Escaping-the-2808210.php |url-status=live }} During this phase of her life, her father said, "We really work hard on making sure that Chelsea doesn't let other people define her sense of her own self-worth ...

In early 1999, the Clintons learned of an article being planned by People that examined Chelsea's relationship with her parents in the wake of the impending vote on President Clinton's impeachment. The Secret Service told the magazine they had concerns that the story could compromise Chelsea's security. People ran the story anyway, and Bill and Hillary issued a statement expressing their disappointment. Carol Wallace, People{{'}}s managing editor, felt that Chelsea, then 19, was "an eyewitness to family drama and historical events" and thus "a valid journalistic subject". The article, entitled "Grace Under Fire", was published in February 1999 with a cover photo of Chelsea and Hillary.{{cite news |last=King, John |date=February 5, 1999 |title=Secret Service Concerned over Chelsea Clinton Cover Story |publisher=CNN |url=https://www.cnn.com/ALLPOLITICS/stories/1999/02/05/chelsea.clinton.01/ |access-date=December 29, 2013 |archive-date=August 12, 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130812194948/http://www.cnn.com/ALLPOLITICS/stories/1999/02/05/chelsea.clinton.01/ |url-status=live }}

During her father's eight years in office, there were 32 stories in The New York Times and 87 network news stories about Chelsea. One author determined that she had received the most television coverage of all presidential children preceding her, although they noted that only she and Maureen Reagan had a full eight years as presidential children. During the last year of her father's presidency, Chelsea assumed some White House hostess responsibilities when her mother was campaigning for the U.S. Senate, traveling with her father on several overseas trips and attending state dinners with him.{{cite web |title=Newsroom/World View: NEWSROOM for August 28, 2000 |url=http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0008/28/nr.00.html |access-date=August 3, 2010 |publisher=CNN |archive-date=March 3, 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160303225413/http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0008/28/nr.00.html |url-status=dead }}

Chelsea arrived at Stanford in a motorcade with her parents, Secret Service agents, and almost 250 journalists. For her security, bullet-proof glass was installed in her dorm windows and surveillance cameras were placed in hallways.

Arriving at Oxford just after the September 11 attacks, Clinton was drawn to other American students who were also feeling the emotional after-effects of the trauma. She told Talk magazine:

Every day I encounter some sort of anti-American feeling. Over the summer, I thought I would seek out non-Americans as friends, just for diversity's sake. Now I find that I want to be around Americans—people who I know are thinking about our country as much as I am.

Clinton was criticized for those remarks in the London press and by the newspaper Oxford Student, whose editorial attacking her angered the university. However, people who met Clinton at that time described her as charming, poised and unaffected, as she adjusted successfully to life abroad.

At Oxford University in 2003, Clinton completed a Master of Philosophy degree in international relations.{{cite web|title=Chelsea faces finals test|url=https://www.oxfordmail.co.uk/news/6574693.chelsea-faces-finals-test/|work=Oxford Mail (UK)|date=June 18, 2003|access-date=August 5, 2010|archive-date=October 16, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191016091051/https://www.oxfordmail.co.uk/news/6574693.chelsea-faces-finals-test/|url-status=live}} Her 132-page thesis was titled The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, TB and Malaria: A Response to Global Threats, a Part of a Global Future, supervised by Jennifer Welsh and Ngaire Woods.{{cite book|title=The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, TB and Malaria: a response to global threats, a part of a global future|last=Clinton|first=Chelsea|date=2003|publisher=University of Oxford|oclc= 54042709}} Following her graduation, she returned to the United States.

Even before her mother received the Democratic nomination, Clinton frequently spoke out against candidate Donald Trump's positions and rhetoric. At one appearance in September 2016, while answering a question about her mother's position supporting medical marijuana research, Clinton got some attention for an inaccurate comment she made regarding drug interactions with marijuana; she walked back the comment a few days later, acknowledging that she misspoke.{{cite news |last1=Ingraham |first1=Christopher |title=Chelsea Clinton 'misspoke' on marijuana risks, spokeswoman says |url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2016/09/28/chelsea-clinton-misspoke-on-marijuana-risks-spokeswoman-says/ |access-date=February 21, 2019 |newspaper=The Washington Post |date=September 28, 2016 |language=en |archive-date=February 21, 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190221165526/https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2016/09/28/chelsea-clinton-misspoke-on-marijuana-risks-spokeswoman-says/ |url-status=live }}
