Scores Turn Out For Ingraham Motorcade Scores of Free National Movement supporters participated in a motorcade on Saturday that was aimed at convincing former Prime Minister Hubert Inghrahm to run for the party’s top post during its convention this week. The most prominent FNM official on the motorcade was the Member of Parliament for Montagu Brent Symonette, who said the turnout spoke volumes about what the public thinks of Mr. But some FNMs said the event was more of a "mass failure" than a "mass motorcade", noting that the fact that the organizers could not get more people to participate indicates that there is not widespread support for the former prime minister’s return as FNM leader. www.jonesbahamas.com /print.php?a=5931   (752 words)

Kennedy Assassination: Changed Motorcade Route? Supposedly, John Kennedy's motorcade through Dallas, which was to go directly down Main Street and onto the Stemmons Freeway, was changed at the last minute to turn of Houston Street, and then Elm Street. According to [Kenneth] O'Donnell, "we had a motorcade wherever we went," particularly in large cities where the purpose was to let the President be seen by as many people as possible. This route, eventually selected for the motorcade from the airport to the Trade Mart, measured 10 miles and could be driven easily within the allotted 45 minutes. mcadams.posc.mu.edu /route.htm   (2993 words)

Last check: 2007-10-30) The only concern a highway patrol officer had about the prime minister's high- speed motorcade from Waimate to Christchurch, was the lack of distance between the vehicles.

WHITE LIGHT MOTORCADE New York City’s White Light Motorcade is a rock revival, unabashedly loud and electic, mindful of their roots but grounded in the present. With conviction and chemistry, White Light Motorcade literally explodes on stage and on record, testing the waters of something beyond “appropriate” volume, reveling in a wide array of four-on-the-floor angst and aggressive, amp-heavy crunch. Having recently signed to the independent label Octone (an artist development co-venture with J Records), White Light Motorcade is poised to build on the strong word of mouth generated in New York City after just a few shows. www.smellslikemusic.com /artist/pages/wlmc.html   (396 words)

The Motorcade Route Again!   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30) In Plumlee's November 21, 2004 personal statement, which appears at http://www.jfkchat.com/plumlee1.html, he indicates the assassination attempt was to take place in the vicinity of the Adolphus Hotel at Main and Akard, which is one-half mile east of Dealey Plaza. In theory, the motorcade could have driven on Elm Street, which is still a one-way street heading west. But if that had happened, the motorcade would have passed a block north - and out of view - of the Adolphus, thereby removing it from being a possible location for the assassination. home.comcast.net /~dperry1943/motorcade.html   (896 words)

POLITICS AND PRESIDENTIAL PROTECTION: THE MOTORCADE Sorrels explained that the size and cumbersomeness of the motorcade, along with the presence of a raised divider separating the Elm Street lane from the Elm Street lane at the foot of the ramp up to the expressway, deterred him from trying to route the motorcade under and through the overpass on Main Street. As to actual deployment of the cycles, DPD officers Billy Joe Martin and Bobby W. Harris were assigned to ride immediately to the left and rear of Kennedy's limousine.* (259) Martin stated that he rode 5 feet to the left and 6 to 8 feet to the rear of the back bumper. The straggling of Haygood and Baker, on the right rear area of the limousine, weakened security that was already reduced due to the rearward deployment of the motorcycles and to the reduction of the number of motorcycles originally intended for use. mcadams.posc.mu.edu /russ/jfkinfo4/jfk11/hscv11c.htm   (12020 words)

John F. Kennedy Assassination Homepage :: Media Library :: The Motorcade Route The Warren Commission claimed in its report that it is impossible to go on Main Street and on to Stemmons Freeway, and therefore the motorcade had to go via Houston and Elm. One is: he really did not know that the motorcade was about to pass the building. An assassin, intelligent enough in preparing a »plant« that he even did not know the motorcade route in advance, would not be so careless as to carry incriminating documents in his wallet or leave photographs of himself holding the murder rifle where the police could easily find them. www.jfk-assassination.de /media/drawings/route.php   (788 words)

Greater Erie (Pennsylvania) March & Motorcade for Life The motorcade will be staged in the eastbound lanes of 10th Street, also in front of the Avalon. The March & Motorcade helps dispel some all-too-common misperceptions about abortion (and our opposition to it): that it is merely one among many more or less equally pressing "moral problems" or "social issues," or even worse, that abortion is merely a matter of personal (private) morality.
