Presidential Scholars 2007 Petition U.S. President Bush

A couple of weeks ago Bush met with 137 high school students, all of them Presidential Scholars. The meeting took place in front of the Jefferson Memorial in D.C. One of the students presented him with a hand written letter that had been signed by 50 of the students urging him to stop the torture of ALL prisoners. He read the letter and told the students that the United States does not torture.

Here is an interview with two of the students that drafted and signed the letter. One of the interviewees presented the letter to Bush. I urge you all to take the time to watch this video. It is very inspiring and heartening to realize that there are young people like these two young ladies that are willing to step forward and protest what is going on.
