Chelsea Clinton cashes in on Elizabeth Warren rally cry with new children's book
2017-03-17
  • Chelsea Clinton will release a children's picture book this May that was inspired by Senator Elizabeth Warren's refusal to be silenced

  • 'She Persisted' is a collection of 13 stories about remarkable American woman including Harriet Tubman, Helen Keller, Sally Ride, and Oprah Winfrey

  • The title comes from the rally cry many women and liberals adopted after Mitch McConnell ordered Warren to stop speaking on the Senate floor in February

  • Warren then used the attention to shed light on the scathing leader Coretta Scott King wrote criticizing then-Attorney General nominee Jeff Sessions

  • Now Chelsea is cashing in, with a rep for publisher Penguin Young Readers not commenting on an inquiry into whether proceeds would go to charity

  • Chelsea's most recent release was tome on global health which came out in January and is 122,000 on the Amazon bestsellers list as of March 16
    Wonder who the ghost writer is...

    #10  I don't usually comment on someone's looks because I have to look in the mirror every day but she looks a bit like Sid from Ice Age.

    #9  I do not like your gnarley crank,
    I do not like its funky stank,
    I do not like it one little bit,
    No, you can't touch my intern tit!

    Why yes, yes they will.

    The gravy-train continues.

    #5  Hillary Clinton did not make the cut in her daughter's book

    The perennial, persistent, annoying, presumptive, flawed, crooked candidate was not available for comment. She was cloistered away while considering a run for NYC mayor to replace "Big Bird."

    #2   Coretta Scott King

    Free master class, young Negro reader:
    Ms. King ain't a thing. Supercede her.
    Pick up a libretto,
    Get out of the ghetto,
    Secede from mass choir and sing lieder!
