Miriam,
I will write it, but I may have been too eager to do so today. I'm
being beset with business, since this is a working day, and I got
carried away and forgot several tasks that are staring me in the face.
But I will send you a copy prior to putting your name on it.

if
Chelsea Manning Granted Clemency
Today I will draft a letter, and send it when I am satisfied that it says
what I mean, to President Barak Obama. When I think of this great Land,
built upon the cruel and vicious advance of invaders from across the
Atlantic Ocean, violating God only knows what long established laws set in
place by those people who occupied that Land, and when I think of the
descendants of those invaders who later violated the Laws of the Land and
rose up against the oppressive King
of England, and when I think of those courageous Slaves, owned as if
they were nothing more than personal property, who violated the Laws of the
Land and dared to run away from their proper owners, in search of Freedom,
and when the equally brave folks who constituted the Underground Railroad
violated all Laws of the Land, and aided and abetted those unlawful
runaways, and when I think of those bruised and battered Union Men who
stood
in unity as the Company Goons battered them, And when I think of those
young
men and women who left the Northern states to stand up for the Right to
Vote
by the Black Citizens of this Great Land, I have to ask my president, "Sir,
are you really standing for the American People? If so, then you can find
it in your good conscience to pardon all of those brave men and women who
currently stand tall, and often alone, for Freedom."

Julian Assange to Accept Time in US Prison if Chelsea Manning Granted
Clemency By teleSUR
15 September 16
Manning is serving a 35-year sentence in a military prison.
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange offered to turn himself over to the
United States and serve a prison sentence if President Barack Obama
pardons Chelsea Manning, the whistleblower who leaked military and
diplomatic documents while working as an intelligence analyst in the
Iraqi capital of Baghdad in 2010.
"If Obama grants Manning clemency, Assange will agree to US prison in
exchange -- despite its clear unlawfulness," WikiLeaks tweeted Thursday.
Manning was jailed in a military prison in Fort Leavenworth in Kansas
shortly after being sentenced to 35 years in August 2013. A year later
a U.S. Army rejected a request for clemency.
For his part Assange has been holed up in the Ecuadorean Embassy in
London since June 2012 when he secured political asylum from Quito to
block potential extradition to the United States.
