Actually, I am pretty sure that according to campaign finance law, Kerry can only use use half of the assets they "share" towards his campaign.
Theresa Kerry got $500 million of the Heinz fortune. However, she would have had to put his name on that and other holdings before Kerry announced his candidacy. She did not do that (smart girl
) They do, however, each own 1/2 of the Louisburg Square townhouse, which I think he recently mortgaged his 1/2 of for $850,000.
So, Theresa Kerry legally can contribute a whopping $2000 to his campaign.
I think that after the campaign is over she can get rid of his debt. But, I am unsure of that.
