But, he added, "Over the long run, Chelsea. She knows more than we do about everything.

"There was a time in her childhood when I thought maybe she thought she did when she didn't. Now, it’s highly embarrassing because she, in fact, does. So I feel like I’m going to school every day when we have conversations."

The comments from her father came not long after Chelsea Clinton opened the door to a possible political career. She told CNN in August that she one day might consider running for office.

For now, though, she seems content working for the family's Clinton Foundation, the Clinton Global Initiative, and as a special correspondent for NBC News.
