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. They have bred to discredit John MCCain because of his wife’s wealth — looks as If she knows how to put money and time to use in many good causes. What a novel thought to have such. a fine person as “First Spouse.” 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
