You are aware that neither Kerry, nor his wife have a controlling interest in Heinz foods, right? Not even combined.

Kerry recieves about $500 million from Heinz, he should have some say. to claim that he does not smacks of partisianship. I just find it funny that he wants to use overseas jobs lose as an issue, but he obviously hasn't done anything about his own companies.

His wife inherited $500 million when her first husband died. Your wording seems, to me, to suggest that this money was received by John Kerry as a campaign donation, which I find to be a bit disingenuous. If I misunderstood you, I apologize.

As to Kerry's involvement with the Heinz food company, I'll let Snopes.com speak for me.

I did not mean to say the Heinz was given the money as a political contrabution, but look at Kerry's holdings.

According to the snopes article above, Theresa Heinz-Kerry has about a 4% holding in Heinz foods, and it says that John's holdings are negligable. Do you have a more specific source for the amount of Heinz stock held by John Kerry?

I apologize if this is an easy question for financial gurus, it's not an area that I've done a lot of research in to date.

Huh? Not every country outside the US has smaller wages. Is this "American Dream-ism" ?

No, just a thoroughly debunked effort to tie the multinational corporation of a dead Republican to a Democratic candidate.
