【新唐人2012年1月11日讯】山东盲人维权人士陈光诚，在当局滴水不漏的软禁之下，是愈禁愈出名，不仅之前连“蝙蝠侠”都想探访，现在还有一群人想推动陈光诚角逐诺贝尔和平奖。
中国民主党全国委员会最近发表声明，从1月10号开始，在全球各地积极推动陈光诚角逐诺贝尔和平奖，希望借此唤起国际社会关注陈光诚，迫使中共当局还他自由。
旅居美国的中国民主人士、《大参考》电子杂志创办人李洪宽，本身也是一名山东人，他为陈光诚的所作所为感到骄傲。
李洪宽：“他在非常困难的情况下，推动中国人权的进步，而我们普通人，没有他那样身体的残障，我们普通人的眼睛都看得见，都不敢去做这样的事，他能够站出来做这个事，而且受到的迫害都是非常严厉的迫害，我觉得他代表了一种精神。”
陈光诚从小双目失明，他自学法律为弱势群体维权，又被誉为“赤脚律师”。2006年陈光诚因为揭发山东临沂的暴力计划生育政策，而遭到当局判刑四年半，2010年出狱后，他继续被软禁在家，连同他的妻子和女儿也没有行动自由。
李洪宽：“他要是老老实实过日子，也能过很好的生活，但是他选择去关注那些受计划生育虐待的人，很多山东当地受迫害的人。这个世界现在需要这样的人。”
陈光诚不怕困难、帮助他人的精神打动了许多人，大陆网民发起了探望陈光诚的行动，有数以千计的人回应，但是，前往探望的人全部无功而返。他们普遍遭到驱赶和殴打，就连饰演蝙蝠侠的好莱坞大明星克里斯汀‧贝尔（Christian Bale），也遭到了阻拦和推撞。
随着中共十八大的临近，中共敏感维稳，人权问题进一步恶化，这次民运人士推动陈光诚角逐诺贝尔和平奖，能起到多大的积极作用，也是外界持续关注的焦点之一。
