During Chelsea Clinton's visit visit to Butler today she was asked if her mother's, Sen. Clinton's, credibility was hurt because of the Monica Lewinsky scandal. She responded by saying
“Wow, you’re the first person actually that’s ever asked me that question in the, I don’t know maybe, 70 college campuses I’ve now been to, and I do not think that is any of your business.”
This sound bite has made the national news.
My opinion on this is that since she is actively campaigning for her mother she should answer questions like the one that was posed today. The complete opposite would be true if she was not actively campaigning.
What do you think?

QUESTION FOR CHELSEA
WHY AREN'T YOU FIGHTING IN IRAQ ???
Rather than campaigning for your mother, why, since you support Hillary, aren't you fighting in Iraq?
A SERIOUS QUESTION !
People like the Clintons think it's fine to vote for war, as long as other parents' children die in them.
WHY ISN'T CHELSEA IN IRAQ ???
That was an excellent START to the questions that should be asked of Chelsea and Hillary.
It is our duty to understand how the Monica-Bill-Hillary-Chelsea situation might affect Hillary's views/policies. It is important for us to understand how Chelsea's views might --- whether intentional or not --- affect her mother's views of men and potentially cause bias towards men by Hillary.
It is our duty to protect our kids' future by understanding the Clintons. We should particularly understand how Hillary thinks given she said this was all a vast right wing conspiracy. (She seems delusional about her trip to Bosnia.) How capable is this person of thinking clearly under stress?
No one is forcing Hillary and Chelsea to enjoy the riches that come with the White House. These things are indeed our business. If she doesn't like us protecting our kids' country, she should tell her mom to find another job.
I completely agree with you, but in some respects I also agree with Chelsea's answer. The Monica Lewinsky scandal was a private affair and how that affected the Clintons' marriage is even more private. But, I think she should have answered the question if she is campaigning for her mother. It is a question on the minds of many Americans who want to know more about Sen. Clinton's personal characteristics that qualify her for the presidency.
