Teresa Kerry - a modern First Lady-to-be

Great article in the L.A. Times about Teresa Heinz Kerry (biography) and if the U.S. is ready for her as the First Lady. Plus: Her speech (transcript) at the Democratic Convention was so refreshing and genuine. Criticized by the Bush campaign as being too outspoken she made it clear that she can't be silenced: " I hope it will come as no surprise that I have something to say. (...) My only hope is that one day soon, woman who have all earned their right to their opinions, instead of being called opinionated, will be called smart and well informed, just like men."
