Cindy McCain

Subject: FW: Cindy McCain...what the voters should know

The media sure kept this quiet didn't they.

THIS IS THE ONE THAT SHOULD BE RUNNING!


There was, recently, an article in the Wall Street
Journal on Cindy McCain, John's wife.
All I ever saw was this attractive woman standing beside
John. I was surprised how talented
and involved with world problems she is. This is a
summary of the article.

She graduated from Southern Cal and was a special-needs
teacher.
After her Dad died she became involved with his beer
distributing firm and is now the chairwoman.
Sales have doubled since she has taken over from her
father.

They have a marriage prenuptial agreement, her assets
remain separate.

She is involved around the world clearing land mines -
travels to these countries on a
detonation team and service on their board.

They have a 19 year old serving in Iraq, another son in
the Naval Academy,
a daughter recently graduated from Columbia Univ., an
adopted daughter in high
school, and a son who is the finance guy at the beer
firm.

Raised kids in Phoenix, AZ rather than Washington
DC.(better atmosphere) He commuted.

In 1991, Mrs. McCain came across a girl in an orphanage
in Bangladesh.
Mother Teresa implored Mrs. McCain to take the baby with
severe cleft palate.
She did so without first telling her husband.
The couple adopted the girl who has had a dozen
operations to repair her
cleft palate and other medical problems.

They have a Family Foundation for children's causes.
She's active with 'Halo Trust' - to clear land mines,
provide water and food
in war ravaged and developing countries. She will join
an overseas mission of
'Operation Smile', a charity for corrective surgery on
children's faces.

She has had two back surgeries and became addicted to
pain killers.
She talks openly about it which she says is part of the
recovery process.

I'm surprised the media is so quiet about her
attributes.
She sounds more capable than Hillary or Obama.
We would really get two for the price of one.
A person with business and international experience.
John did work for the firm for awhile when he left the
Navy.
She, however, has the real business experience.

Very interesting.
