Default Senator Gravel: Bobby Fischer should be pardoned

From an interview of Senator Gravel's spokesperson Shawn Alexander
Colvin to the the newspaper Pravda.ru.

(http://english.pravda.ru/world/ameri..._mike_gravel-0)

Second question from the bottom:


===================
PRAVDA.RU: Can you imagine the former chess champion Bobby Fisher as the
leader of an opposition movement in the USA? Please substantiate your
answer.

COLVIN: Bobby Fischer would be pardoned. He deserves an apology for the
way he has been treated by the Bush administration.
===================


"would be pardoned" doesn't really make sense. I think he rather said or
meant to say "should be pardoned". I wish more senators would raise the
issue.
