Chelsea Clinton, the 37-year-old only child of Bill and Hillary Clinton, is fueling speculation that she could one day run for office -- honing her Twitter profile, publishing a new book and becoming increasingly vocal in the wake of her mother's presidential defeat.

Gone is the publicity-shy former first daughter with bouncy curls -- replaced by a tireless liberal campaigner, who last year criss-crossed the country to tell Americans why they should elect her mother the first US woman commander-in-chief.

Her mother's loss at the polls to a billionaire former reality star has only seemed to fuel Clinton's ire.

She deluges her 1.7 million followers on Twitter with outrage about Donald Trump's administration, and thoughts on everything from World Menstrual Hygiene Day to child marriage, as the media devotes column inches to whether she will run for office.

Chelsea's official line is she's not -- but in true politician style, she often couches those denials with caveats such as 'right now, no.'

Staying pit: Chelsea Clinton said she has no plans to tun for political office during an appearance on 'Today' Tuesday (above)

In an interview with Savannah Guthrie on 'Today' Tuesday, Chelsea said: 'Well, last year, when I was campaigning for my mom, I think really up until my due date with Aidan, being on the stage at the convention, so proud to support her there, just a few weeks after he was born, I did so many events for my mom.

'I had a chance to share my thoughts publicly in forums. Did lots of interviews. Now, I continue to share my views after the inauguration.'

Guthrie then pressed Chelsea for an answer, at which point she said: 'I don't have any plans to.'

She went on to state: 'I think we've talked about this before. One of my earliest memories is being 3-years-old and standing on the side of one of my dad's campaign rallies. And a woman saying to me, Chelsea, do you think you'll run for governor of Arkansas, I think I said, I'm 3.'

Chelsea then further explained her answer by stating: 'I don't think being a citizen is just something that happens in an election year. We have to feel responsibility to every day. And these days, more than ever. I don't have plans to run for office. I do plan to keep being an activist and raising my voice online and off.'

Speculation about Chelsea's political future returned to the fore Tuesday with the publication of her third book -- a 28-page hardback picture book for children called 'She Persisted' about 13 diverse US women who 'changed the world.'

The collection of stories was inspired by Elizabeth Warren according to a release sent out by publisher Penguin Young Readers, and as evidenced by Chelsea's decision to use the Massachusetts senator's rally cry for the title of the book.

That rally cry was born out of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's attack of Warren on the Senate floor in February when she opted to read a letter written by Coretta Scott King criticizing Jeff Sessions while debating his nomination for Attorney General.

After she refused to stop reading the letter, which broke an arcane rule that states no Senator shall impugn a fellow Senator, McConnell stood at his podium and said: 'She was warned. She was given an explanation. Nevertheless, she persisted.'

Among the 13 women making an appearance in the children's picture book will be Harriet Tubman, Helen Keller, Sally Ride, Florence Griffith Joyner, Oprah Winfrey and Sonia Sotomayor.

Less familiar names including Clara Lemlich, Nellie Bly, Maria Tallchief, Claudette Colvin, Ruby Bridges, and Margaret Chase Smith are also featured in the collection.

Chelsea Clinton's new children's book "She Persisted," a title that plays off the now infamous words of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, goes on sale Tuesday

'I wrote this book for everyone who’s ever wanted to speak up but has been told to quiet down - for everyone who’s ever been made to feel less than,' said Chelsea of her first foray into the world of children's literature.

'The thirteen women in She Persisted all overcame adversity to help shape our country - sometimes through speaking out, sometimes by staying seated, sometimes by captivating an audience.'

She then added: 'With this book, I want to send a message to young readers around the country - and the world - that persistence is power.'

This is the third book Chelsea has released, having previously written a social empowerment book for middle-school children in 2015 entitled 'It's Your World: Get Informed, Get Inspired & Get Going!' and then just this past January releasing her worldwide health tome 'Governing Global Health: Who Runs the World and Why?'

The latter proved to be a dismal failure for Chelsea, who never even bothered to promote the book in the wake of her mother Hillary's defeat in last year's election.

That might explain why the book performed so poorly, and just two months after its release was number 128,444 on the Amazon bestsellers list.

Chelsea's official author bio states that in addition to her write she is 'Vice Chair of the Clinton Foundation, where she works on many initiatives including those that help to empower the next generation of leaders.'
