As Donald Trump golfs while people suffer and die in Puerto Rico, the woman who should be President receives an award for her humanitarian work.

Hillary Clinton will receive an award for her work in protecting and advancing humanitarian rights across the globe at a Swansea University ceremony on October 14. 

The former secretary of state and 2016 Democratic candidate is being celebrated by the Welsh university, which says "her cause is shared" by its Observatory on the Human Rights of Children and Young People. Clinton will receive an honorary doctorate, and is expected to deliver a speech on humanitarian issues during the event.

Clinton is a figure of "enormous international significance and one synonymous with human rights," the university’s Vice Chancellor professor Richard Davies told the BBC on Friday. "It is tremendous that she has chosen Swansea University for her first public appearance on this visit to the UK." 

The contrast is almost stunning.

Here is the woman who inspired chants of "Lock her up," receiving an award for being a humanitarian, while the guy Putin helped win the election, blames American citizens for being "lazy" and allowing themselves to be devastated by a hurricane.

It will probably depress you to do so, but just imagine what the response to the crisis in Puerto Rico, and the potential conflict with North Korea, would have been with Hillary Clinton in charge of the country.

And then just imagine how much easier it would be for you to sleep at night.

Chelsea receives doctorate from Oxford. (Probably just to help her mother's Presidential aspirations, and draw attention away from Benghazi.)

Former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton are in Oxford, England, this weekend to attend the graduation ceremonies of their daughter, Chelsea. 

Chelsea Clinton will receive her doctorate degree in international relations on Saturday from the prestigious British university. Her father was a Rhodes scholar at Oxford from 1968 to 1970. 

The graduation ceremony comes as her mother is considering a potential 2016 presidential campaign. 

The 34-year-old Clinton is reaching a number of milestones this year. In addition to her doctorate, Clinton and her husband, Marc Mezvinsky, are expecting their first child in the fall. And she has taken a more public role at her family's Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation, where she serves as vice chair. 

A longtime advocate for public health, Clinton has played an active role in developing policies at the foundation to address childhood obesity, HIV/AIDS, and childhood diarrhea around the globe.

You know it's like this young woman has NEVER even seen the "Sarah Palin guide to Edjumikation,  Unwed Child Birth, and Werk Ethic."

Besides as we know Chelsea is simply being given this doctorate in order to keep Monica Lewinsky out of the news. (Well as least that is how the Right Wing is going to spin it.) The younger Clinton, a special correspondent for NBC News, is a graduate of Stanford University and holds master's degrees from Oxford and Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health.

You mark my words folks, someday in the future we are definitely going to have another Clinton running for President. And this one might be the most qualified, and experienced, of all.
