Very impressed with this beautiful young woman.

She came to my school last week, but she only talked for 25 minutes and didn’t sound very intelligent. The whole time she read off of a paper and the questions that students asked at the end were scripted. Everyone in my school was more interested in the secret service than the president’s daughter.

If she really want to impress the people go and sighn up for the service, protect the country like the rest of our young people are.

yes, i’m impressed too. she’s gone from a sloppy bar-hopping co-ed–seen it in person here in DC–to Ms. UNICEF.

Guess we all have to grow up sometime. And I suppose she wants to project a different image than dear old dad.

Jenna’s set to speak at my school about her book and her work with UNICEF. I can see about getting pictures and whatnot, and since I’m covering her visit for our school paper I can give the basics of her visit if anyone’s interested.

Very impressed with her work with UNICEF. I disagree with Sinclair. Most college students do what she did as far as going out. The only difference is she did it in the public eye. I don’t see doing good acts for others as trying to project a different image than her father. Maybe its a result of being raised to give back. It’s nice to see she has carved a place for herself.

I really admire her and her work. I seen Diane Sawyer interviewing her and it made me look at her in a different way. She seems very humble and sweet.
