Dear Cheryl:

I work as a Reservation Sales Agent at the
WorldPerks Service Center of North West in Chisholm,
MN and heard from a co-worker that the mechanics in
Eveleth at the airport during the Wellstone crash
actually heard a plane going over the airport twice.
They asked themselves if it was a mail plane or
something else. No, they decided it could only have
been the Wellstone plane. One of them, David Sereda,
was advised by the FBI not to say anything or the
media would harass him.

This is a coverup. It only remains to be
determined what kind--innocent or evil. The public,
though has a totally skewed idea of happened. It wasnt
just a plane coming in low and slow, off course, with
a pilot who was sleep deprived and lied about his
hours flown on an application who got iced up stalled
and went down. This was a plane which had a major
systems failure involving communication and navigation
that wasnt even trying to land--witness the landing
gear only 15% down--but circling the airport in
distress which went down facing away from the airport
.
I called the NTSB--public affairs--202-314-6100
and told my story. The spokesman promised to relay it.
What really interests me is whether the NTSB has
interviewed the mechanics and whether that all will
appear on the final report in 6 months. There is
something you can follow up on! This is all I know.

Yours,

Dear John,
Thankyou so much for speaking up. I will make sure that this
information gets out to the public!! I only wish there were more
conscientious citizens with courage like yourself out there. If there
were, we would not be in the current mess we're in now!
All the very best,
Cheryl Seal

Excerpt:
Paul Wellstone is a hunted man.
Minnesota's senior senator is not just another Democrat on Karl Rove's target list, in an election year
when the Senate balance of power could be decided by the voters of a single state. Rather, getting rid
of Wellstone is a passion for Rove, Cheney, Bush and the special-interest lobbies that fund the most
sophisticated political operation ever assembled by a presidential administration.

Subject: re: Paul Wellstone

Greetings,

I came home to horrible news: Paul Wellstone, dead at age 58.
It was shocking and saddening. Words cannot express my dismay and sadness.

I apologize for the email intrusion, I usually don't do this, but I am writing to you all today to propose
the following idea: in addition to the numerous memorials and articles that Wellstone's passing will inspire,
I think it would also be great if we could post a link to Wellstone's 2001 book, "Conscience of a Liberal,"

It is described as, "When senators think about running for president, they write books like The Conscience of a Liberal.
Indeed, Senator Paul Wellstone of Minnesota thought about pursuing the Democratic presidential nomination in 2000,
but ultimately backed off. There's some speculation he'll run in 2004. Whatever the case, he's known in Washington as
one of the Senate's most liberal members--giving his better-known colleagues Ted Kennedy and Hillary Clinton a run
for their money in this category. The first part of the book explains Wellstone's unlikely ascension to the Senate (he was
once a college professor), and some of his campaign war stories are fun reading for political junkies.

One of the most amusing passages describes how he once nearly clocked New York Republican Alfonse D'Amato
over a disagreement: "When the train reached the Senate chamber, I jumped out and lunged forward, intending to
catch D'Amato and deck him. My body was shaking with uncontrollable anger." Another senator held him back,
and Wellstone calmed down. The bulk of The Conscience of a Liberal, however, is given over to laying out a political
agenda that includes universal health care, reversing welfare reforms, prekindergarten education, raising the minimum
wage, and campaign-finance reform. He closes with a call for a new politics: "This is not a conservative America....
There is a huge leadership void in this country that the Democratic Party, emboldened by political courage and a
commitment to the issues that made our party great, can fill." Democrats looking for a candidate to support in the
next presidential election may want to start here. --John J. Miller"

This is the Amazon.com link:

Wellstone was a great man and his death should not be the end of his work.
By giving people access to his words, hopefully his vision will live on.

Just my thoughts and my own efforts to make sense of this tragedy,

Thanks for listening and god bless,
