Please sign White House petition to Pardon Don Siegelman

I have posted a petition to ask President Obama to pardon former Alabama Governor Don Siegelman. It has 27 signatures, needs 150 to get publicly posted on the White House website. It will need 25,000 for the President to respond.

If you agree that Governor Siegelman was unfairly prosecuted, please go and sign the petition. I know there are others out there, but none on the White House site:

Don Siegelman's daughter already created one of these at change.org/PardonDON and it has nearly 40,000 signatures.

Please continue your efforts and direct supporters to the existing petition. Thank you.
