Political India: Engaging America

From The Hindu

She may be the most powerful woman on earth, but like every mother the prospect of her daughter’s upcoming wedding has made her – and her husband – “nervous wrecks.”

In an interview with the NBC Channel, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton talked about the wedding of her daughter, Chelsea Clinton (30), to investment banker Mark Mezvinsky on July 31 in the small town of Rhinebeck, 100 miles north of New York City.

The former first lady said of her husband Bill Clinton, “You should assume that if he makes it down the aisle in one piece it's going to be a major accomplishment.” She admitted that they were both “going to be so emotional.”

Ms. Clinton however refused to share any more details about the wedding, saying, “My lips are sealed. I am under very strict orders not to talk about it.”

Ms. Chelsea and Mr. Mezvinsky – also from a political background as the son of former House Representatives Ed Mezvinsky and Marjorie Margolies-Mezvinksy – met while in Washington attended Stanford University together.
