NY politicians, keep Chelsea Clinton happy; she says she might run for office otherwise

NEW YORK, N.Y. – Chelsea Clinton says she might run for office someday — if she becomes dissatisfied with the job her elected representatives are doing.

But so far, she says, she’s happy with Mayor Bill de Blasio (dih BLAH’-zee-oh), her representatives in Congress and her city councilwoman.

The 34-year-old daughter of former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton is quoted in Fast Company magazine (http://bit.ly/1t04yVv ).

She acknowledges that she’s always denied any interest in politics. But she says that was “a visceral no,” and she hadn’t made any well-thought-out decision.

Clinton says she feels now that if she became unhappy with some officeholder, she might come to a different answer.

Clinton is working for her father’s foundation. She lives in Manhattan with husband Marc Mezvinsky.
