• Revisit The Right to Prayer in Schools
    A recent statistical analysis by David Barton graphically illustrates how America has plummeted from righteous living, prosperity and success in the last quarter century The removal of prayer from our schools was a violation of the third commandment which commands us “not to take the name of the Lord in vain.” By the judicial act of forbidding invocation, the Court audaciously elevated a secularized system of education beyond the authority, reach and blessing of God Himself. Worse than taking the Lord’s sacred name in vain is treating it with contempt, denying it rightful place and stripping it from public use and even from the lips of children. Jesus’ own expressed desire, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them” was also violated by these judges, many of whom were raised in Christian homes.When they voted out the right to pray in School I was too young to vote I would love to see us as a nation get back to prayer in School I recently read a comment or a blog or just a article and it explained how the question was asked of God why is there killing and molestation in School. On top of that why are Kids not being taught properly and Gods answer is Im not allowed in School we stood by as a nation and allowed back in the Sixties a group of people who claimed they were offended by Prayer in Schools.Banned together started a pettition to take the most important part of lives our creator out of out Children's lives so I'm challenging and inviting every one who knows in there hearts to sign this petition and I know as sure as they knew , that the Lord God Almighty will turn this nation around if we turn back to him Be Bless My Beloved Brothers and Sisters

  • Tell Rob McKenna to apologize for using racial stereotypes in campaign ads
    Tonight while watching tv, I saw a political ad put out by Rob McKenna (see it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7V7B23Ka710) - which perpetuated damaging racial stereotypes. While talking about unemployment, he showed photos of black people. while talking about opening small businesses, he showed an Asian man. while talking about education, he showed ONLY white children. This is sending the message that race based stereotypes are not only ok, but that Rob McKenna would purposely choose to reinforce these if he is chosen as governor for WA state. I find this offensive, and I think that McKenna should apologize for perpetuating this behavior.

  • Governor Kasich:Gay Rights Matter!
    Recently I passed a sign damning "homosexuals". Angry, I went home and looked under Ohio Laws protecting gay people and found that there were none! We need laws like other states protecting gays and lesbians from attacks: physical, personal and professional! Will you join me in petitioning the Governor to this CAUSE and their RIGHTS!! This should be a safe world for EVERYONE!

  • Schools should not mandate Ritalin or other pharmecuticals as a condition of attendance!
    This petition is about telling the school systems that they cannot mandate that our children use Ritalin or other drugs as a condition of attendance. This is an unfair and dangerous policy that damages childrens self confidence and important developmental attributes.

  • Democrats: Support Full Democracy for Nation's Capital
    For 200 years, the residents of the nation's capital--the District of Columbia--have lived without the same political rights and privileges that every other American enjoys. Congress, a body in which DC residents have no formal representation, exercises complete control over the District's budget and local laws, and did not even allow DC residents to vote in elections until 1962. The only permanent and lasting way to give DC citizens equal political rights to all other Americans is to admit the District to the Union as the 51st state. Doing so only requires a simple majority vote in Congress--not a constitutional amendment. Yet the Democratic Party, in its platform and official statements, refuses to express support for this only true solution. It only makes vague, generic references to giving DC representation in Congress, and refused to allow statehood advocates to speak at the 2012 Democratic National Convention. We are calling on the Democratic National Committee to take a strong stand in favor of legislation that would make the District of Columbia a state, finally giving full democracy and local autonomy to 600,000 disenfranchised Americans.

  • Restoration of moratorium/Abolition of death penalty in Gambia
    Nine death-row inmates were executed in Gambia and further 38 are being threatened with the same. Although the death penalty is used in many countries, the absence of transparent due processes and competent judicial institutions, coupled with ambiguous constitutional provisions relating to the death penalty, make it unsafe for its continued retention in Gambia.
