“After his heart surgery he became much more diligent about taking long walks and going to the gym and going on hikes with my mom and their dog…. Starting a couple years ago, he really made a commitment to and a concerted effort to eat healthier. I am profoundly grateful that my dad makes different choices now. Selfishly, now I hope he lives forever. I am sure every child feels that way.”

—Chelsea Clinton, during an interview she gave after visiting an elementary school that is working to combat childhood obesity through the Alliance for a Healthier Generation. The organization was founded shortly after her father’s surgery as a partnership between the American Heart Association and the William J. Clinton Foundation. Following a vegan diet may be the best way to make his daughter proud. Chelsea has been a vegetarian since she moved into the White House with dad.
