HISTORY RE-LIVED: President McKinley Visits Veterans in Los Angeles
National Veterans Home: Rally to Save Hallowed Land for Veterans Held This Past Sunday
Chuck Baldwin, Candidate for President of the USA (American Independent Constitution Party) Visits Veterans
by Robert Rosebrock
On May 9, 1901, President William McKinley visited America’s military Veterans at the National Soldiers Home in Los Angeles (as shown in the photograph at bottom of ful story)
As we know, Presidents over the past few decades have used this hallowed ground for landing their Presidential helicopter, then jumping into a big limousine and heading off to a nearby mansion of one of their fat-cat donors for a private political fundraiser. Tragically, they never had time to visit with America’s Veterans, as President McKinley did.
Like everyone else, they simply “used” Veterans’ land for their own benefit.
This past Sunday, a U.S. Presidential candidate, Chuck Baldwin of the American Independent Party/Constitution Party, joined Veterans as we rallied together from 1 to 4 o’clock, to save this hallowed land in accordance with the Deed of 1888.
To be clear, this was not a political rally. To the contrary, it was an “Appreciation Celebration” to say thanks for everyone who truly supports saving the National Veterans Home. Also joining Mr. Baldwin was Larry Breazeale, Chairman of the National Veterans Coalition.
Thanking Others
This Presidential candidate truly cares about America’s military Veterans, supports Veterans’ causes, and is willing to take time from his busy schedule to visit and rally with Veterans to “Save the Home.”
Do you think any of the other Presidential candidates would do this?
It has been more than a century since President McKinley came to the Soldier’s Home to visit with America’s Veterans. So, we united in solidarity and let everyone know that this is “Veterans’ Land for Veterans Use Only.”
We owe a big thanks to the California American Legion and California’s American GI Forum for their recent resolutions in solid support of protecting the National Veterans Home as it was deeded.
