The Daily Beast's "U.S. Policy" blog profiles former president George W. Bush's post-presidency work in global health through the Bush Institute, which "houses a variety of programs under the broad headings of global health, education reform, economic growth, and advancing human freedom, areas that advance Bush's interests and reflect his presidency." The blog writes, "Now that he's been out of the White House for almost four years, [Bush's] post-presidency is coming into sharper relief, and there's a lot for his critics to admire." The blog highlights his recent trips to Africa with wife Laura Bush, during which they focused on efforts to expand cervical and breast cancer detection and treatment (Clift, 7/23).
