"Sheehan Calls for Peace Summit at Martha’s Vineyard
Infowars
MARTHA’S VINEYARD — Peace proponent Cindy Sheehan is calling for peace movement leaders, international news ‘anchors’ and pro-peace members of the public to sail around Martha’s Vineyard, from August 27 to 29. The meetings will be aboard the grand sailing vessel dubbed the SS Camp Casey anchored in Martha’s Vineyard. Sheehan will co-captain daily excursions as she holds this seaside peace summit.
Sheehan’s purpose is to bring leaders together to stand as an acting ‘Department of Peace’. She calls for immediate stipulations: “I am calling in the Peace Movement to encircle our country with our united demand for an immediate return of all U.S. forces around the globe. Bring every one of our troops home NOW! We need them in our families and towns. We need our troops back to help us fix our broken country. Our ships of state must make their voyage home, with our countrymen out of harm’s way.”
Sheehan declares her plan to mobilize peace leaders to begin work with her to draft the world’s first ‘Universal Peace Treaty’: “We must stop the terrorizing of our soldiers and the world’s civilians with the imperial sword rattling of wartime administrations,” said Sheehan. “We must BE the change we wish to see in our President!”
Sheehan demands that the Obama Administration issue a mandatory end to U.S. war policy. “The clock does not turn back with a new President.. We must return them all back here immediately. No more waiting will be tolerated. Zero acceptance for keeping our troops abroad!
“Security begins at home with intact families,” says Sheehan. “The time of healing must begin. The true purpose of our nation is Peace on Earth, starting with the decisive end to our failed war policies.”
To the international peace community, Sheehan says: “This is our time to finally draw an end to America’s wars. We must abide by the saying of ancient scriptures: Let peace and peace and peace be everywhere. I declare this to be our new national defense policy.”

"New England’s lure as presidential escape; Region called welcoming, ‘noncontroversial’" by Susan Milligan, Globe Staff | August 22, 2009
WASHINGTON - .... So why would a president even consider going somewhere else, when New England has so much to offer?
You gotta love the Zionist's Yankee arrogance.
Vacations make a political statement, and some presidents took that into account when deciding where to summer. Bill Clinton, on the advice of his pollster, went on vacation in Jackson Hole, Wyo. in 1995 and 1996, ahead of his reelection campaign.
Sure he wasn't sitting in with the Fed at the time?
“Being seen as a Massachusetts elitist on Martha’s Vineyard wasn’t the best thing in the world’’ when Clinton was seeking a second term, said former Clinton press secretary Joe Lockhart, who was not involved in the decision to have the Clintons vacation in Wyoming.
No, that's not a good thing.
The lure of home appeals to some presidents, especially those who professed a distaste for the East Coast mentality. Richard Nixon went to the Southern California beaches of San Clemente (which became known as the “Western White House’’ during his tenure) while Ronald Reagan retreated to Santa Barbara.
“Nixon would have loved to blow New England off the map. Ronnie couldn’t care less about us, and [Jimmy] Carter was afraid he’d run into a Kennedy if he came to New England,’’ said Garrison Nelson, a political science professor at the University of Vermont, referring to Massachusetts Senator Edward M. Kennedy’s Democratic primary challenge against Carter in the 1980 presidential election.
Isn't that a little strong?
“By the time Bill Clinton became president, he didn’t have a Kennedy to worry about. There was no Kennedy in the wings hovering over his presidency,’’ Nelson said.
Still got power here: Kennedys Still Rule the Commonwealth
George W. Bush, swapped the Yankee vacation for cowboy-themed August break at his ranch in Waco, Texas, but still made shorter trips to Kennebunkport during his presidency....
I wish they would all go someplace else -- preferably a place that is hot, with flames, and a guy with a pitchfork.
