Petition To President Barack Obama Calling For A Pardon For Bradley Manning

 The presidential power to pardon is granted under Article II, Section 2 of the Constitution:


“The President…shall have power to grant reprieves and pardons for offenses against the United States, except in case of impeachment.”

 

In federal cases, and military court-martials such as Private Bradley Manning’s are federal cases, the President of the United States can, under authority granted by the U.S. Constitution as stated above, pardon the guilty and the innocent, the convicted and those awaiting trial. Now that Bradley Manning has been found guilty of 19 charges and is subject to up to 128 years  in prison this pardon campaign is more necessary than ever. Free Bradley Manning! Free the Wikileaks whistleblower!
