Cindy McCain
Bet you would have never guessed this one! No matter your
politics. The media will never tell of this, so pass it on.
There was 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. She has a masters degree in special education.
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.

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.
