[procon]

1. To her left is Gerald Ford. nt

[marybourg]

2. To her right Lloyd Bentson,I believe.

The men at each end are familiar, but I can't put names to them right now.

[oberliner]

21. Definitely not

He wasn't in Congress yet (and was in his 40s).

[LeftInTX]

3. Cool pic!

[GallopingGhost]

4. The man on the far right (no pun intended)

I believe is Charles Goodell, Republican Senator from NY.

[uppityperson]

7. He signed that below himself

Now that you wrote his name, it's readable.

[GallopingGhost]

8. Yes, I saw that.

I thought that's who it was, and I googled another pic of him to be sure.

[Tactical Peek]

5. On the right hand end, I think it's Charles Goodell.

6. This was the pic that hung at her dad's house until the day he died.

She's with the House Republican leadership, I believe.

[Hortensis]

10. The Goldwater Republican chose a picture of her standing

mostly with Republicans to display? Hopefully it was just because of their stature. In those days, of course, senators saw themselves as gentlemen and routinely worked across the aisle.

[NBachers]

13. How dare her father be proud of this picture!

[PoiBoy]

9. Congressional intern 1968...

...with unidentified congressmen.. although Ford, Bentsen and Goodell are identified so far..it would be a challenge to try to ID the others just for fun...

more great pictures here...

[Warren DeMontague]

11. What a neat piece of history, from the last century!

So cool to look back on the way things were in the far distant past.

[Liberty Belle]

12. Could be Lyndon Johnson & Spiro Agnew on the left:

Here is a photo of them together in Jan. 1968:

[Warren DeMontague]

14. No, don't think so.

I do think Bentsen is a possibility.

[oberliner]

22. Bentsen is not a possibility

He was in his 40s and not in Congress yet.

[Warren DeMontague]

23. Then I stand corrected.

Short of Jerry Ford, I have no idea who those people are with HRC.

[oberliner]

24. It's been a fun challenge trying to track down the answers

Interestingly this photo is posted fairly widely without the people identified.

[ATL Ebony]

30. Naw, neither of them are in the photo.

[Jane Austin]

15. Bentsen would have been a

great deal younger then than the man on her right.

[Jim__]

16. Second on her left - Melvin Laird?

Laird was a congressman from Wisconsin in '68, became Nixon's Secretary of Defense.

Laird with Nixon:

[wishstar]

17. Yes, next to Ford is Laird who autographed right corner of pic

[JI7]

19. so we need two more

[TomVilmer]

18. "Hillary Clinton as an intern with Congress, Summer 1968"

... is how Time Magazine is describing the photo, with no more names, and they got many more of them. My Google image search describes it just as "Hillary Clinton in her youth".

[Jim__]

20. Next to her on the right - Leslie C Arends - Republican whip?

[OldHippieChick]

25. The guy to her immediate right

looks a lot like Mike Mansfield, though he was a Democrat.

[DFW]

27. It's not Mansfield

I used to run into him when I was younger. That's not him.

The maddening thing is, I recognize the two guys to her right, but can't dredge up their names from my memory. In those days, I paid a LOT less attention to Republicans than I do now!

[OldHippieChick]

28. I mean to her right.

Duh - sorry

[DFW]

31. No problem

But it's still not Mike Mansfield!

[DFW]

26. Definitely Charlie Goodell on the right

He used to come over to our house occasionally during the brief time he was a Senator from NY. He and my dad were friends, despite their party differences.

[Barack_America]

29. His note was the nicest and most personal.

Which suggests, politics aside, he was a decent human being.

[DFW]

32. Any Republican that Spiro Agnew hated for being too "liberal"

Was a Republican that we did NOT hate!

[WePurrsevere]

33. This is so cool. It was taken back before the Republican party...

totally lost their way, completely sold their soul and when the 'loyal opposition' actually tried to work together more for the good of the whole country and not just their political party.

Doing the math, this was taken the year she turned 21 so it would have the first year she could actually vote and registered as a Democrat, splitting from her Republican family roots. In this pic I can really see Chelsea's resemblance to her mom.

It's interesting to think that just a few years later she was back in DC and in the limelight working on the Watergate investigation. I suspect that the Republican party never forgave her for that (and worse yet to them, being a woman doing that).
