I have not personally verified any of the following, I just wanted to make this e-mail public.

Following is a brief background on Mrs. John Kerry .

> She hates being called that, by the way:

> Maria Teresa Thiersten Simoes-Ferreira Heinz Kerry.

> Married Senator Kerry in

> 1995. She only took his name eighteen months ago and

> she is an "interesting" paradox of conflicts.

> If you thought John Kerry was scary, he doesn't hold

> a candle to his wife!

> Maria Teresa Thiersten Simoes-Ferreira Heinz Kerry

> was born in Mozambique,

> the daughter of a Portuguese physician, was educated

> in Switzerland and

> South Africa. Fluent in five languages, she was

> working as a United Nations

> interpreter in Geneva in the mid-60's when she met a "handsome" young

> American, H. John Heinz, III, who worked at a bank

> in Geneva. He told her his family was "in the food business."

> They were married in 1966 and returned to Pittsburgh

> where his family ran the giant H. J. Heinz food company. He was elected

> to the US House of Representatives in 1971, and in 1976 he was elected

> to the first of three terms in the United States Senate. A Republican, he

> wrote a burning diatribe against some of the causes backed by young House

> member John Kerry.)

> Several years later, in 1991, he was killed when his plane collided with a

> Sun Oil Company helicopter over a Philadelphia

> suburb. The senator, his pilot and copilot, and both of Sun's helicopter

> pilots were killed. He was survived by his wife, Teresa, and their three young sons.

> Four years later, having inherited Heinz's $500

> million fortune, she married Senator John Forbes Kerry, the liberal then-junior

> senator from

> Massachusetts. She became a registered Democrat and

> the process of her

> radicalization was set in motion.

> Heinz Kerry is not shy about telling people that she

> required Kerry to sign

> a prenuptial agreement before they were married.

> John Kerry may not have

> check writing privileges on the Heinz catsup and

> pickle fortune, but he is

> certainly a willing and uncomplaining beneficiary of it.

> A lot of hard-earned money, made through many years

> of hawking catsup, mustard, and pickles has fallen into the hands of

> two people who despise successful entrepreneurship and who believe in the

> confiscatory redistribution of wealth.

> So how does Mrs. Heinz Kerry spend John Heinz's money?

> Just one example:

> According to the G2 Bulletin, an online intelligence

> newsletter of

> WorldNetDaily, in the years between 1995-2001 she

> gave more than $4 million

> to an organization called the Tides Foundation. And

> what does the Tides Foundation do with John Heinz's money?

> They support numerous antiwar groups, including

> Ramsey Clark's International Action Center. Clark has offered to defend Saddam

> Hussein when he's tried.

> They support the Democratic Justice Fund, a joint venture of the Tides

> Foundation and billionaire hate-monger George Soros.

> The Democratic Justice Fund seeks to ease restrictions on Muslim

> immigration from "terrorist"states.

> They support the Council for American-Islamic

> Relations, whose leaders are

> known to have close ties to the terrorist group, Hamas.

> They support the National Lawyers Guild, organized

> as a communist front during the Cold War era. One of their attorneys,

> Lynne Stewart, has been

> arrested for helping a client, Sheikh Omar Abdel

>Rahman, communicate with

> terror cells in Egypt. He is the convicted

> mastermind of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.

> They support the "Barrio Warriors," a radical

> Hispanic group whose primary

> goal is to return all of Arizona, California, New Mexico,

>and Texas to Mexico.

> These are but a few of the radical groups that

> benefit, through the anonymity provided by the Tides Foundation, from the

> generosity of our

> would-be first lady, the wealthy widow of Republican senator John Heinz, and

> now the wife of the Democratic senator who aspires

> to be the 44th President of the United States.

> Aiding and supporting our enemies is not good for

>America, regardless of

> your political views.

> If voters will open their eyes, educate themselves

> and see the real Teresa Heinz Kerry, they will not appreciate her position

> as ultra rich fairy godmother of the radical left. They will not want to

> imagine her laying her head on a pillow each night inches away from the

> President of the United States.

> Hopefully they love this country enough to decide

> that the only way these two will ever be allowed into the White House is

> with an engraved invitation in hand.

> Instead of deleting this, pass it on. Let everyone know these people are

> unfit to represent this great nation. The uninformed will never hear the

> truth from the press, who wants Kerry elected!

> Those who buy the Kerry facade, beware what you vote for - - - you may regret that you got it!
