The 36-year-old mother of two will take the convention stage Thursday night at a symbolic moment -- introducing her mother to formally accept the Democratic nomination.

Aides to Chelsea Clinton tell CNN that she is taking this speech much more seriously than any other speech she's given before -- spending weeks working on the copy with the help of her mother's speechwriter and rehearsing it for her husband.

"I hope to convey even just a small sense of why I am so proud and grateful to be her daughter," Chelsea Clinton said, previewing her speech in an interview on NBC's "Today Show." "I'm going to talk as her daughter. I am an only child -- a unique position that I have and I hope that people understand even more when I'm done than when I started about why I love her so much and admire her so much."chelsea clinton dnc speech,chelsea clinton democratic national convention speech,chelsea clinton democratic national convention speech 2016,chelsea clinton democratic national convention speech hd,chelsea clintons speech at the dnc,chelsea clinton live speech,chelsea clintons live dnc speech,dnc 2016,clinton dnc 2016 speech,dnc speech,chelsea clintons speech at dnc,
