The message comes just after the former First ladyannounced she would be running for the presidential election in 2016 andhitting the road to start campaigning.

While it remains to be seen the exact role Chelseawill play in her mother's bid for president, it's almost certain she will makepublic appearances just as she did during Hillary's 2008 run. Themother-daughter-duo have already been speaking at several engagements leadingup to the announcement, proving they not only have a close bond, but they'realso a powerful team. The two commandedthe stage earlier in March when they spoke at the Clinton GlobalInitiative meeting at the University of Miami.

Another role Hillary also takes very seriously: grandmother. "Itwill affect my being, not just my thinking. I hope grandfathers feel the sameway, I know my husband does," the 67-year-old told People magazine lastyear. "Having that next generation right there and thinking abouteverything you want to do both personally but in our cases, publicly andprofessionally, to give that child the best chance in life to be all he or shecan be, that is profoundly moving to me."
For his part, Bill Clinton has also been quite vocal about being a grandparent. The former U.S. president spoke openly about little Charlotte, who was born this past September.
"It's really wonderful," the beaming grandpa said on Late Night with Seth Meyers in January. "I love it. Like every other grandparent, I think my granddaughter's the greatest thing since sliced bread."
