Jeb Bush will present Hillary Clinton with the 2013 Liberty Medal this Fall in Philadelphia.
It could be an awkward encounter for the two, both of whom are mentioned as 2016 presidential nominees for their respective parties.
Bush, the former Republican governor of Florida, is chairman of the National Constitution Center, which is giving Clinton the award in honor of her career in public service and her advocacy efforts on behalf of women.
He praised Clinton on Thursday for her service.
“Former Secretary Clinton has dedicated her life to serving and engaging people across the world in democracy,” Bush said in a statement announcing the award. “These efforts as a citizen, an activist, and a leader have earned Secretary Clinton this year’s Liberty Medal.”
.....................and then, later on ............. when he was released from Thomas Jefferson University Hospital in Philadelphia where he had a emergency procedure performed where a "craw" was removed from his throat, he called his family in Texas, apologized, and begged their forgiveness. Apparently, his Mother was the only family member who would do so. He was quoted as saying, "I knew Mom would forgive me."
