Cindy Sheehan is headed back to Crawford to meet President Bush at his Crawford ranch, RAW STORY has learned.

The anti-war mother who lost her son, Casey, in Iraq, will hold a vigil for five days, starting on Nov. 22 and ending Nov. 27. On Sheehan's last visit, President Bush declined to meet with her. She now hopes to meet Bush for Thanksgiving.

Sheehan will be joined by a handful of supporters back at the campsite where she spent 26 days in August during President Bush's vacation nearby. The protest is sponsored by Gold Star Families for Peace and Crawford Peace House. The group's roster includes organization of Katrina relief efforts.

Tonight is attending a fundraiser for Progressive Democrats of America, which was also guested by Rep. John Conyers (D-MI).

Tomorrow she will be in a D.C. district court with other protesters, where she has been called after her recent arrest outside the White House.
