Generation “B” – bored, boring, to tears

Silver spoon

If I were a paid journalist, I would dig into this story. It is apparent to all that Chelsea Clinton is a bright woman, a product of favored grooming, and who has upward mobile opportunities when she applies herself to more than managing her father’s foundation.

Crossing into the journalism profession is suspect because, as the story implies, you need grassroots experience to develop skills and experience. Some of Chelsea’s life-long learning experience is so unique that it is certainly transferable, yet, there is no substitute for hard work as the saying goes.

If she plans to enter politics at some point, transitioning from journalism to politics is not the career path I would recommend. I would rather see her gain substantial experience as a manager-executive of a product manufacturer engaging the global marketplace. That should become a favored element of qualifying experience in the future, I think.

Without having that as a foundation, followed by  in-the-trench experience in state legislature or as a mayor of a major city, followed by governorship, Chelsea will be another Maria Shriver, maybe.
