Some of those most excited people I have ever seen. I sure hope none of them have heart conditions, they seem to be overstimulated.

Poor Chelsea - turned away from the Killing Fields of
Vieques. No chance to see and weep over the stacks of thousands and thousands of dummy bombs stacked so high...

I think she looks more like Web.
And what the hey, let her campaign from out in the middle of the minefield - but only if her mom walks out there for a joint photo-op, hand-in-hand.
To: trumandogz
Yes, don’t you remember they all howled when they found out closing the base meant all the jobs they had on would be gone as well?

“The U.S. Navy has denied Chelsea Clinton permission to campaign for her mother on a former bombing range on a small Puerto Rican island”.
...She can come back when it becomes a CURRENT bombing range.

The guards at her bank turn off the security camera when they see her coming.
To: massgopguy; trumandogz
Right.
The closing down of Vieques meant closing down Roosevelt Roads Naval Base as well because, after all, Rosie Roads was there to complement the Vieques firing range and vice versa. Once one of those components was gone, the other one had to go to. That part of the Island (Northeast) is suffering those closures bigtime...

Some of those most excited people I have ever seen.Yeah, the expression on the face of the little girl in the center holding the sign reminds me of the Beatles' appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show.

Her parents hung a pork chop around her neck to get the family dog to come near her.

Vieques was the best (only?) target range of its kind for naval gunfire. I shot at Vieques (killing no guards) during gunnery exercises in 1981. I was Director Officer for the 5”/54. Among other things my job was to pass visual corrections down to Gun Plot after observing the shell impact.

I know a lot of Navy and Marine vets who remember Vieques fondly. Having grown up in Puetro Rico, I remember going to Vieques several times, specifically camping out at the beach with my friends at Playa Esperanza and taking the ferry from Fajardo.... lots of booze and fun times....
Vieques was/is awesome....
Ah, the memories of youth....

They should’ve let her.
But let her know that bombing runs are still going on.
