This petition is from last year, however the United States has still
to ratify the Convention on the Rights of the Child. I think this
petition should be sent to George Bush BEFORE election day.

PETITION for CHILDREN'S RIGHTS

I support the Convention on the Rights of the Child, and I am asking
President Bush to do so also. Children need specific rights for a healthy
and safe life.  We can help kids who are abused, exploited and neglected. 
The United Nations and 130 countries want all children, to receive proper
care and protection.  The United States should be among the list of
countries that supports the Convention on the Rights of the Child.  
Please, Mr. President, make the Unitied States a country that stands up for
children's rights.  Sign the Convention and ask the Senate to ratify it.

    Name                        City or Town                         Age
