| Cindy McCain: First Lady of Hope is the biography of a shy woman who wandered unexpectedly into her husband’s limelight. A woman whose glossy exterior, and huge mistakes, have led many Americans to overlook her innate integrity. A woman who is a leading executive in her own right—and one of John McCain’s most trusted advisors.
Cindy McCain’s struggles with drug addiction, which she overcame, and her near-recovery from a stroke, have been well documented. Chair of one of the nation’s largest Anheuser-Busch distributors, she is also a successful—and wealthy—woman. For years she ran a charitable organization providing assistance to the Third World. Candidly addressing both the scandals that have invaded the McCain household and the good that Cindy McCain has done for others, this book examines all this and more. An active player in her husband’s presidential campaign, Cindy has stated that she would assume a traditional role, avoiding a hands-on approach to her husband’s administration while continuing her involvement in philanthropic organizations.
