Pres. Obama: Start Granting Clemency and Commutations
Demand that President Obama begin using his pardoning power and stop ignoring or denying worthy clemency and commutation applicants.
Why is this important?
President Obama has repeatedly failed to use the clemency and commutations process that is within his power. He has granted clemency more rarely than any modern president. Under Obama an applicants chance of getting his or her sentence commuted is about 1 in 5000. This is the worst record of any modern president. Our judicial system over the past 30 years has become unbalanced to the extreme. Obama's callous disregard of the process of pardons and commutations is a shame. Please sign my petition and make others aware of this issue.
