Of course, because he was part of a Marxist terrorist organization that killed Americans who wanted to turn Puerto Rico into a communist state.

Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders Monday urged President Obama to grant clemency to an unrepentant convicted Puerto Rican terrorist who has been imprisoned in the U.S. for more than 34 years.
Sanders, who dropped the bombshell during a town hall in San Juan, P.R., said Oscar López Rivera, 73, deserves freedom.
“Oscar López Rivera is one of the longest-serving political prisoners in history — 34 years, longer than Nelson Mandela,” Sanders said to thunderous applause.
“We are talking about a Vietnam War veteran who was awarded a Bronze Star. I say to President Obama — let him out!”
Sanders promised that if Obama doesn’t release López Rivera, “I will pardon him” if elected president.
Sanders didn’t explain why López Rivera was imprisoned in the first place.
