Would Hillary Rodham Clinton be a better president than her husband, Bill?
Posed that question Friday, former first daughter Chelsea Clinton laughed at first _ and then came up with an answer.
"His question is, 'Do I think my mother will be a better president than my father,'" Clinton, 28, told the crowd at Lehigh Valley Hospital, where she had been discussing her mother's health care proposals.
"Well, again, I don't take anything for granted," she said, "but hopefully with Pennsylvania's help, she will be our next president, and yes, I do think she'll be a better president."
Asked about her daughter's comment at a news conference in Hammond, Ind., the former first lady smiled broadly and laughed.
"I have to talk to her before I answer that question," she said.
