{If you have any way to get a question to the Obama campaign, I'd appreciate anything you can do}


A few different sites and blogs ( I dont want to mention which ones by name) that have been working for the freedom of Leonard Peltier are starting to mention that Obama has said that he would (everything from consider the case of Leonard Peltier, to outright free him). I have delayed posting this because I want to try to find out where this rumor is coming from and what the official stance of Senator Obama is on this matter.

Please do not spread this rumor until we can verify or debunk it. I just want to warn you to be careful if you should hear this mentioned in the next week or so.

Please also post any info that you come across about this matter in a reply on this board. I am still trying to speak with the writers of the blogs in question and have sent a question to the Obama campaign.

I do not want to be jerked around on this matter.
