The article is a joke because it doesn't capture both the humor and solemnity of the occasion and doesn't discuss the truly deserving of the 15 medals. Clinton was not treated special as the article strongly suggests, all were treated equally, same medal, Clinton's was not bigger or shinier.

And I don't think that President Obama picked any of them. They were chosen by the Kennedy's - It's their award to very special Americans of all occupations (including science, basketball, Hillbilly music, jazz, politics, speakers, veterans, races, sexual preferences, and a bunch of stuff.

Watch it tonight. Bill was not the star.
