Appeal to Obama to pardon Edward Snowden

Barak Obama is now a lame-duck president, which means he has the opportunity to do things that might make it difficult for him politically if he were seeking re-election. One of these is to grant presidential pardons. There is a petition on the website for We The People asking the president to pardon Edward Snowden (http://tinyurl.com/hc9g7r5). If 100,000 signatures are gathered, then the White House has committed to responding to the requests. No guarantee what the response will be, but it’s a beginning. The American people, in fact people worldwide, have benefited so much by this brave man’s sacrifice to expose the illegal behaviour of the NSA. Please sign this petition and encourage President Obama to allow Edward Snowden to return to the US without prosecution.
