Peace activist Cindy Sheehan, who is best known for the vigil held last summer outside President Bush's Crawford ranch, has said she would consider running against California Sen. Dianne Feinstein. Sheehan said her run for Feinstein's seat would be in protest of the lawmaker's support of the President and of the war in Iraq.

Anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan told supporters at a peace forum Saturday that troops would get out of Iraq if millions of U. S. citizens took the simple step that she did outside President Bush's vacation home last summer. "Anybody could do what we did in Crawford, Texas. We just went down and sat down,'' Sheehan told the crowd of several hundred people, with Academy Award-winning actor Sean Penn in the front row. Sheehan, whose 24-year-old soldier son died in Iraq, attracted hundreds of anti-war protesters to her makeshift camp near Bush's ranch in August.
