PHILADELPHIA (AP) – After days of all sorts of endorsements, Hillary Clinton will be introduced Thursday night by the woman who knows her simply as mom.

Chelsea Clinton will open for her mother at the Democratic National Convention as Clinton accepts a place in history as the first female presidential nominee for a major party. Chelsea Clinton’s appearance comes after her father, ex-President Bill Clinton, gave a deeply personal address about his wife Tuesday night.

It’s part of a campaign effort to show the softer side of the former first lady, senator and secretary of state.
