Its not true that the latest member of the Clinton political dynasty is wearing a baby beanie that declares Hillary 2016 and a onesie that reads Grandma rocks Iowa! At least we havent seen the photos yet.

Still, that little Democrat (one can only assume family party loyalty) likely is the first new-born to be the top news item at Politico.com. Headline Its a girl: Chelsea Clinton gives birth.

Well get to the most important historical point first, as pointed out by Time: If Hillary Clinton runs in 2016, she will be the first serious presidential contender who is also agrandmother a title the former first lady, US Senator, and Secretary of State has called the most exciting yet.

Did we mention the babys name? The announcement came on Twitter and Facebook, where former first daughter Chelsea Clinton wrote that she and husband Marc Mezvinsky are full of love, awe and gratitude as we celebrate the birth of our daughter, Charlotte Clinton Mezvinsky.

Little Charlotte may never have an interest in political office, but it wont be because her grandparents didnt.

Marc Mezvinskys mother Marjorie Margolies served a term in Congress from Pennsylvania. Ms. Margolies ex-husband Edward Mezvinsky Charlottes other grandfather is a former congressman from Iowa. (Edward Mezvinsky also pleaded guilty to 31 of 69 felony charges of bank fraud,mail fraud, andwire fraud, for which he served five year in federal prison, but we wont dwell on that today.)

In other words, all four of Charlottes grandparents have been elected to high political office. Might there be such a future for Charlottes mother?

Now I live in a city, in a state, in a country where I support my representatives at every level, Chelsea has said (again, from Politico). If at any point in time that stopped being true, where I had a question about their ethics or their competencies, and I thought I could make a disproportionately positive contribution in the political arena in the same way that I feel very grateful I can do now through the [Clinton] Foundation, Id have to ask and answer that.

Sufficiently vague, but not exactly Shermanesque.

Chelsea Clinton grew up in the public eye as a teenager in the White House, later graduating from Stanford and Columbia universities. She worked in finance in New York and in public health, earning a doctorate from Oxford University.
