Chelsea Clinton to Speak to Triangle Students

Raleigh, N.C. — The youngest campaigner in the Clinton family will return to the Triangle Monday, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's camp announced.

Her daughter, Chelsea, will speak to college students as part of the campaign's "Our Voices, Our Future" tour, launched in January to reach out to young voters.

Chelsea Clinton will talk to students at North Carolina State University's bookstore plaza at 10:30 a.m. and Peace College's Belk Courtyard at 12:45 p.m. She will appear in the Pit at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill at 3 p.m.

On Saturday, Chelsea Clinton spoke at the annual statewide convention of the Young Democrats held in Research Triangle Park.

She said that reactions to her mother's campaign have shown her that sexism still exists in America and that her mother and father disagree over the North American Free Trade Agreement.

Hillary Clinton spoke at Wake Technical Community College and Fayetteville's Terry Sanford High School Thursday, while her husband, former president Bill Clinton, visited seven cities Friday.

The Clinton campaign is making an effort to reach out to North Carolina's voters, particularly young ones, before the state's May 6 primary.

Her rival for the Democratic presidential nomination, Sen. Barack Obama, traveled to North Carolina earlier in March, visiting three cities in two weeks.

The state has 115 delegates and 19 unpledged superdelegates up for grabs.

Good job Jimbo. I normally consider it a waste of time because Liberals don't usually deal in facts.

I forgot, is the Clinton campaign part of right wing talk radio?

How about this article:

Of course, we are all aware that Katie Couric is part of the vast right wing conspiracy.

Again, are you trying to say there weren't gas lines under Carter? Maybe it was just a fantasy of mine.

I wish they would pass a law prohibiting politicians from campaigning until 60 days prior to the election and limit it to the politician only,not their spouse,children,or any other relative.
