We have until October 22 to gather signatures for the clemency petition for Leonard Peltier hosted by the White House. Please circulate the following directions to help supporters with the process.
1. Go to www.whoisleonardpeltier.info/index1.htm. Click on the We the People text or image on the left sidebar. Alternatively, use the abbreviated link, http://tinyurl.com/3qq4muc. These links will take you to the petition.
2. Scroll down the page and click on CREATE AN ACCOUNT.
3. Fill out the form. Enter your first and last name, as well as your e-mail address (required). Enter your zip code if you wish (not required). Don't freak out. The White House wants only to verify that the e-mail address you entered is a valid address.
4. See the highlighted string of characters towards the bottom of the form? Enter them in the text box under the display. The White House uses these to guard against spam.
5. Then click on REGISTER and wait. Eventually the page will refresh and a message will appear at the top of the page (in yellow) telling you that you have been sent an e-mail message.
6. Open your e-mail program and locate the White House e-mail titled "Almost done! Verify your White House account".
7. Open the e-mail. Click on the link (second paragraph). If the link isn't active, highlight and then copy and paste the link into the address text box on the menu bar of your browser. You will return to the petition page on the White House Web site.
8. Now, click on SIGN THIS PETITION. In a moment, you'll receive an online verification message saying you have signed the petition. You'll be encouraged to share the petition with family and friends on Facebook and Twitter, too. We recommend that you do so.
Let's see how many more signatures we can get during the next 48 hours.
Thank you for all you do on Leonard Peltier's behalf.
