A powerful letter, a very powerful letter.
I was not aware she was contacted by the Kerry Campaign.
How is she supporting herself? Even if she lives in a tent, it costs money. Who is funding her life?
I am not certain how she is supporting herself. She claims it is from insurance policies Casey left. He had the standard military policy and took out one additional policy, however, its my understanding the funds are being used to educate the other children and there were plans last summer to purchase a home in Davis, Calfornia, for the kids to live in while they attended school.
The Kerry campaign did, in fact, approach families of fallen soldiers. The link below indicates an Ohio mother contacted at the exact same time there was contact with the Sheehan family.

You know, Casey had twin daughters, which are not mentioned at all by Cindy Sheehan.
I believe those children would have been instant beneficiaries to the first insurance policy and would be receiving military benefits.
