(CBS) NEW YORK Thousands of protesters mobilized in Manhattan Wednesday to rally against polices of the Bush administration. The group “The World Can’t Wait” organized the peaceful march of mostly high school students, who walked from Union Square to Times Square in Manhattan.

Marchers chanted, “Join us, join us, the world can’t wait. Drive out the Bush regime.”

Elected officials Deborah Glick, Margarita Lopez and Tom Duane reportedly attended the event. The organization also reported that among the protesters, 70 students from high schools on Long Island received 3-day suspensions for leaving school to participate in the march. Other students from area high schools reportedly received similar treatment.
