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.
The former secretary of State is considered the frontrunner for the Democratic nomination in the next presidential election, but has made no political moves since leaving the Obama administration. Instead, she has focused on charity work through The Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Foundation.

The right to life used to be an established fact in the minds of Americans. When the public began discussing Terri, the debate was over who had the right to order her death. We skipped right past whether anyone even had that right, to assuming either her estranged spouse, family, government or the voting public owned her life.

The main mission of the D/R duopoly and the puppetmasters that control them, is to keep it a duopoly. Two Parties are controllable by the powers that be. They both have their perpetual issues that are intended to divide us into two but will intentionally never be solved..
Neither Party serves the average small business or the working American people and the serious issues that face us such as a declining middle’class and median income and the increasing debt and crony capitalism. They both serve the global bankers and corporations.
At that point, what difference will it make?
Iron Cross
Both are ultimately on the same side. Both corrupt, establishment, power-driven.
We don't need or want another clinton or bush.
Chalk full of nuts!
The Bush/Clinton Crime Syndicate has been in business since before Governor Bubba was running dope into Mena for Poppy’s CIA during Iran-Contra.
And they had all the goods on Obama back in 2007 and earlier and just let the America hating communist/muslim waltz into our White House.
Dick Cheney gave Obama a dirty look at the inauguration—big deal.
Stay out the bushes.
Just like the good old days at Mena Airport.
2016 is likely to find the country in such a terrible state that no one will even want to run for president.
I cant stand Jeb or his son who is trying to get into politics.
They can all go jump

I cannot understand how people give Hillary credit for a career in public service. She was the wife of a governor, the wife of a president...none of that was a career in public service. She wasn't working or being paid for her involvement in whatever she chose to advocate. So it wasn't a "career" - it was an avocation.
So, she spent two years as a Senator, and four years as SOS - total six years...that's hardly a "career." There are many more who have spent many, many years as elected officials who have been far more productive than Hillary.
So she worked as an attorney, and got fired...that's commendable?
So she gave some speeches on women's independence issues. Well, she certainly didn't live a life of a liberated woman. She ignored and even knowingly allowed her husband to carry on with his sexual escapades, so she could advance herself through that connection. That shows she is hardly a woman who can survive on her own without a man. And her acceptance of the SOS position, playing second-fiddle to another man who treated her badly, again confirms that she has done nothing independently to prove to women they can become successful without a man.
I just don't understand why all the hoopla about her experience and "career." She has a lifetime of dependency on men and has been a tag-along woman who was only in the limelight because of the men she used and who used her and put her there.
DITTO, that.
