Noticed some major changes on Nightingales "About Chelene" page. Gotta say I'm a bit surprised, because I never heard a word about the most of this until today. Also would like to see the references. You know how Chelene has made Obama's birth certificate a big issue? well I'd like to see the certificates for these:

Chelene’s first trip to California at the age of 8 on a family vacation inspired her to dream of moving to California one day. The sunny beaches, amusement parks, and entertainment were exciting as a child. Chelene kept her goal and relocated from the Puget Sound to Southern California in the early 1990’s.

Chelene has fond memories of growing up in a tight knit family. Her father served in the Air Force and thus the family moved to several locations throughout the years from Montana to Mississippi to Nebraska. Her mother worked part-time during school hours but always home before the two sisters arrived home from school. The family traveled every summer in the United States seeing such sites as Mt. Rushmore, Old Faithful, and the Grand Canyon.

During her teen years, her father retired from the Air Force and moved the family to Oregon to be near the grandparents. Chelene’s grandfather had retired as an executive from Boeing and purchased a beautiful river front property home in between an Apple Orchard farm and a dairy farm. Although Lebanon, Oregon was drastically different from the Air Force bases and cities, Chelene adapted quickly and worked on a farm during summer vacations.

Chelene was very active in school participating in the drama department, debate team, and various other clubs. In fact Chelene and a close friend created the Spirit Club for which she served as vice-president. Chelene received honor awards and graduated in the upper 10% of class.
After high school, she relocated to the Puget Sound area to attend college and begin a career in business. Her very first self-owned business was Images, a graphic design company specializing in product design and company logos. However she was scouted one day while at local mall and began a career in modeling. Bookings included Nordstrom’s, Clairol, and a book cover. One day her agent suggested she take a commercial acting class to broaden her career. Within a short amount of time Chelene was booking stage acting roles in the Seattle area without even auditioning. Television credits followed including commercials, a local soap opera “Elliott Bay”, and an episode of “Northern Exposure”.
After receiving her SAG and AFTRA memberships, Chelene moved to Seattle in her mid-20’s and quickly began working as both a model and an actress. Later she would add producer and staff credits including the “All New Captain Kangaroo Show”.

Chelene decided to leave the entertainment industry in 2005 to focus on her family. Chelene married Michael, a musician, on October 10, 1999. Their son was born in February 2003 and Chelene’s step-daughter moved in with them shortly thereafter. With a new family, they opted to start their own heating, air, and appliance repair business. During the infancy of the business, they struggled with one income and strict California business regulations. By this time Chelene had taken a strong interest in politics and decided change needed to happen to protect the middle class.

Since 2005, she has been very active in politics serving as the managing director of a political organization opposing amnesty. Her role included organizing rallies and marches in California. Chelene organized the "Free the Texas Three" march for Deputy Gilmer Hernandez and Border Patrol Agents Ramos & Compean in Hollywood. The march was featured on the nationally syndicated show "America's Most Wanted."

In addition to organizing political events, Chelene has lobbied as a private citizen in both Sacramento and Washington DC, demanding secure borders and no amnesty. Besides the border security issue, Ms. Nightingale has attended and spoken at Tea Parties and End the Fed events.

Back in 2006, she was the campaign manager for third party gubernatorial candidate, Art Olivier. During the campaign, they were invited to the late, great Aaron Russo's home to receive his endorsement and watch his extraordinary documentary "America: Freedom to Fascism".

During the last presidential election cycle, Chelene was honored with an invitation to personally meet and endorse Congressman Ron Paul.

It was due to her past political achievements that the National Constitution Party leaders and members requested her to run for governor in California as an American Independent. Chelene accepted the challenge in order to help restore our ailing state that has been hurt by special interest groups and big government.

Ms. Nightingale, who has won past awards and achievements including being listed In "Who's Who", is determined to help "we the people" take back our state so that we can govern ourselves the way our Founding Fathers intended.
