Yesterday, we heard about the romantic exploits of Naeem Ahmed, who has been stalking Caroline Kennedy's daughter Tatiana Schlossberg for the last couple years, sending her a ridiculous amount of mushy E-cards with messages like, “My Dearest Hunny Bunny! Have A Happy Valentine's Day. Do I love you? Yes I do. Do you? Truly Yours, Yours Hubby, Naeem." But it seems Ahmed's obsession with JFK's granddaughter goes even farther back, stemming from a deeper, equally-creepy appreciation for the whole Kennedy clan: "It goes as far back as five to eight years...[He said] it's too complicated to discuss" Ahmed's lawyer Gerald Hertz told the News.

The Post got a chance to sit down with Ahmed, who has been charged with three misdemeanor counts, and is currently being held in prison. And he says his love for the youngest Schlossberg is derived from a psychic bond they share: "I first saw her in my dreams...I can't explain it, but I know her very well. Very clearly, in my mind and in my heart. I can read her mind. Sometimes she can read mine." Despite his current circumstances, he doesn't blame the Kennedy's, and still wants to marry Schlossberg, and wants her brother, Jack, to be his best man at their "wedding." "I am not mentally ill. I am not crazy. I love her unconditionally. Forever. We will get married...Look at her. She's not beautiful, but she's the most beautiful woman in the world to me. She's beautiful enough for me," he said. Overlooking his delusions, this could be the perfect time for Ahmed to consider forming a band with Chaz Rose, Cloud Starchaser, and Jack Jordan called "The Stalkers." That album would market itself!
