1. She's FRESH the others aren't |

I don't think many understand that.
She will do it justice and then move on.

Provides the most upside for Patterson. This is politics after all.
I think she'll be a wonderful Senator.

You don't like it.
However, I highly doubt it would have become public if there wasn't a good chance its going to happen. Deal.

Because we all know that you've never made any predictions of what will happen in the field of politics while you've been on DU. :rofl:

9. I think you have to be 30 years old to be a U.S. Senator. |

Chelsea was born in 1980.
By 2010 she will be eligible.

Who knows what Governor Paterson is thinking?
But CKS is a mighty fine choice if you ask me.

And after 8 years in the Senate, she will make a fine Presidential Candidate.
Obama's plan for the Future is becoming clearer.

11. She'd be as good as many others - the gov will probably choose... |

...someone who can help him in the long run ~ it is politics, after all.

12. Wonderful idea. She's a New Yorker who has raised millions to aid NY schools, & other good works. |

Edited on Sat Dec-06-08 04:22 PM by indie_ana_500
She's a real New Yorker who was partly reared by one of the foremost politicians of our country, Ted Kennedy. She interned in the U.S. Senate. She's highly intelligent and educated (Harvard, J.D. from Columbia).
Seems to me that New York could use someone they could trust to fill that seat for two years and vote the "right" way. She will probably not run in 2010, not being a campaigner type of person.
It sounds like a great idea.
