Vice President Dick Cheney addresses a joint session of the Virginia General Assembly at the Memorial Church at Historic Jamestown in Jamestown, Va., to mark the beginning of an 18-month series of events celebrating the 400th anniversary of Jamestown, Wednesday, January 10, 2007. The Jamestown Memorial Church is located on the site where, just twelve years after the first settlers arrived to the New World, representative government began in America with the establishment of the House of Burgesses, the first legislative body in the New World and precursor to today's Virginia House of Delegates.
