She is such an awesome woman.

"This is Teresa Heinz Kerry. Bom Dia. Thank you for your conversation, interest and warm words. There are so many people out there wanting to be heard. And it is important to remember that every little pebble in the lake makes a ripple, and so do we.

This is no time for cynicism, though one feels hard-pressed sometimes. It is time for cool heads, sharp minds, and warm hearts. It’s time to hope, to work with our best instincts, with heads up, determined to trust again. We need to trust ourselves and these great American traits: generosity, optimism, and fairness. We deserve it; we can do it; and we will!

Hello to John Norris and the large campaign family in the wonderful state of Iowa. Thank you for arranging such great formative meetings and for teaching me to blog! See what you have done! I’ll be going northeast and southeast this week and I hope to meet a lot of you, out there somewhere in America. Take care of yourselves and keep talking.

Teresa Heinz Kerry

Here's a link the article about her receiving the Albert Schweitzer Gold Medal for Humanitarianism and her acceptance speech below it. The speech is wonderful reading.

7. woohoo...that's a hot ticket.

She is a real dynamo.

If she was an actress, she'd be a STAR!

But, I'm glad she is a philanthropist who funds some of the world's most worthy projects for human betterment.
