Boston, MA - Melida Arredondo has been named Team Sheehan's Northeast Coordinator for a grassroots campaign to elect Cindy Sheehan to Congress as an Independent in the 8th California district in 2008.

According to Arredondo, "This is a win - win situation race. There's only one way that Pelosi can stop Sheehan. Introduce articles of impeachment which over 80,000 people have already signed onto around the US. We the people want HR 333 to impeach VP Cheney immediately. If not, California 9th district will vote for the people's representative."

Carlos Arredondo, Melida's husband and father to Lcpl. Alexander Scott Arredondo, USMC, who was killed in Iraq in 2004, leaves on Tuesday morning to join Sheehan in a march and tour that starts in Crawford, TX, heads to DC and then New York City. "Our sons died in a war that the president admitted is based on falsehoods. I am a US citizen who believes in upholding the constitution. It is my duty as an American to join Cindy. My son can't be here to see victory in Iraq. I can work for peace in his place." states Arredondo.

Cindy Sheehan said she will run against the San Francisco Democrat in 2008 as an independent if Pelosi does not seek to impeach by July 23.
