George H.W. Bush gets hospital visit from son: 'Big morale boost'

Posted by Eun Kyung Kim on April 21


Former President George H.W. Bush received a special hospital visit from a familiar face, his son, who gave a promising update about his dad.
"Pleased to report that 41 is joyful, strong, and ready to come home soon," former President George W. Bush wrote in an Instagram post of their bonding session.
Bush's father has been recovering at a hospital since last Friday, when he was admitted for pneumonia.
The elder Bush, 92, also posted the same photo in a tweet that described his joy over the visit.
"Big morale boost from a high level delegation. No father has ever been more blessed, or prouder," he wrote.
Bush's hospitalization is the second time this year that the former president has been hospitalized for pneumonia. A previous battle also required medical attention in January.
But Bush was released in time to be the honorary coin-flipper at this year's Super Bowl in Houston.
Earlier this month, Bush was paid a visit at his Houston home by yet another former president, his White House successor Bill Clinton.

War and Nation Building in Latin America: Crash Course World History 225


Published on Feb 11, 2015
In which John Green teaches you about nation building and nationalism in Latin America. Sometimes, the nations of Latin America get compared to the nations of Europe, and are found wanting. This is kind of a silly comparison. The rise of democratic, economically powerful nations in Europe came about under a very different set of circumstances than the way nations arose in Latin America, so the regions are necessarily a lot different. But why? John will explore whether it was a lack of international war which impeded Latin America's growth, which sounds like a crazy thing to say, but you should hear him out.
