• Ask Twitter to Dump Trump
    Trump uses Twitter to avoid the Press (our 4th Estate) and to guide followers to bully his enemies. His Tweets are reckless and could start a nuclear war. Twitter should permanently revoke his account to ensure transparency and democracy. Twitter should not enable this behavior, but should stand up for civil discourse.

  • ABOLISHMENT OF ALL GOVERNMENTS
    IT IS TIME TO SECURE OUR LEGAL RIGHTS AND ABOLISH ALL GOVERNMENTS BECAUSE THEY HAVE OUTLIVED THEIR PURPOSES AND ABUSED THEIR AUTHORITIES IN DIRECT VIOLATION OF U. S. TITLE 18 SEC. 241- CONSPIRACY AGAINST RIGHTS! SIGN THIS SECURE PETITION TO BE DELIVERED TO THE INTERNAL COURTS ALONG WITH A CRIMINAL COMPLAINT TO INCLUDE FRAUD! LETS MAKE A CHANGE TOGETHER! The Declaration of Independence was put in place to protect us from the abuse of power by our Governments; it's time to ABOLISH! Declaration of Independence IN CONGRESS, July 4, 1776. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.— That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,— That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government ...... It should be painfully obvious this is one reason (among others) why the Declaration of Independence has not been seriously regarded as law by legal scholars for over 100 years (and why it has been denigrated in academia). If people actually took the words of the Declaration at face value it would create all kinds of problems for our modern world, and people in academia, law and government have a vested interest in maintaining the status quo. Belief in a government of limited powers, or (God help us!) a government that can be discarded from time to time, would put politicians and government workers of all stripes (as well as those in the symbiotic fields of law and education) at risk for losing their jobs – an intolerable risk. That is one reason why mainstream political culture left the worldview of the American founders in the ash heap of history long ago. However, I believe the Declaration yet has things to teach us that not only have value, but authority, as we deal with the pressing issues of an overreaching, over-regulating, abusive, and dare I say, increasingly tyrannical American government (both state and federal). I’d like to show you that the ideas embodied in the Declaration are really not radical or extreme at all. In fact, it’s not even complicated. For this purpose, I will assume the Declaration’s statements are not based on mere political expediency (i.e., that the founders just said whatever they needed to say to give their political goals plausibility). I assume the founders were not a bunch of political charlatans – they actually believed what they said and were not deceived in their beliefs either. So in that light, let’s consider the evidence from history and the laws of nature and nature’s God, and see whether we can discover any eternal principles which undergird the Declaration’s statements. NOT BY FORCE OR VIOLENCE I am not advocating the exercise of any right to alter or abolish our forms of government by force or violence. I say this not because Title 18 of the U.S. Code forbids it, but because I simply don’t need to. The right to alter or abolish is a natural right which is perfectly capable of being exercised lawfully without force or violence. The laws of nature and nature’s God allow for a way, actually several ways, to bring about fundamental government change peacefully without armed conflict. The most likely scenario for doing such a thing in America would be through a convention of states – either pursuant to Article V of the U.S. Constitution or apart from it through a Congress of States. At the state level, the people can similarly call for a constitutional convention directly.

  • No Confidence Recall of Donald Trump
    Mr Trump's gross incompetence is a danger to our country and planet. His actions are reckless and autocratic. Many government around the world have expressed grave concerns about him and are generally fearful of his autocratic approach to governance and diplomacy. We believe the country will suffer dire consequences should he remain in office.

  • Ask Hillary Clinton to Choose An Alternative to Donald Trump
    According the the 12th Amendment (see www.solartopia.org) Hillary Clinton could instruct her delegates to cast their Electoral College votes for an alternative candidate who might win enough Trump defectors (37 are needed) to deny him the presidency and either win outright in the Electoral College or put the contest into the House of Representatives. We ask that she step forward in a "Profiles in Courage" moment and save the world from a Trump-Putin catastrophe.

  • Ask Andrea Bocelli to not perform at Donald Trump's Inauguration
    I am personally affected by apparently everything that Donald Trump is doing, but more importantly, I'm affected by the type of person he is. Andrea Bocelli's voice is so remarkable, so grace-filled it would be a kind of sacrilege for him to perform for someone as despicable as Donald Trump.

  • Electors: Vote your conscience
    Quick history lesson: Among the reasons for the creation of the Electoral College was "to stop a demagogue—a tyrannical mass leader who preys on our prejudices—from becoming President.” And, as spelled out by Alexander Hamilton in the Federalist Papers, to prevent "the desire in foreign powers to gain an improper ascendant in our councils."[1] Yet, in just a few days, the Electoral College could cast their votes for a demagogue whose victory seems to have been aided by efforts of the Russian government. There has been evidence that Trump supporters were in communication with Russian government officials. And furthermore, there is evidence that Russian-backed parties were behind hacks into the Democratic Party and the Clinton campaign. These same parties may have also hacked the Republican Party, but chose not to leak any information from that attack. If Donald Trump's massive financial conflicts of interest that would violate the Constitution, his unrepentant demagoguery, his embrace of unconstitutional policies, and the fact that he lost the popular vote by nearly 3 million votes were not enough to convince electors to vote against him, then benefitting from, and possibly colluding with, cyber warfare from a foreign power aiming to undermine our 240-year-old democracy absolutely must be the final straw. The truth is that the Electoral College should be abolished, as more than 600,000 MoveOn members have said in a recent petition. And if it didn't exist, Hillary Clinton would have won the election with a commanding popular vote victory. But since it does exist, for now, electors can and must embrace their right to vote their conscience and be the final safeguard against an unfit president. We know it's a long shot that the electors will block Trump. But we have to try.

  • Postpone Inauguration Until We Investigate Russian Hacking
    We now know that Russia, a foreign government, tried to influence our democratic election. We have a president elect who has not, and will not, let us know about his business interests around the globe. There have been high ranking aids in his campaign who have proven close ties to Russia. He has now chosen a Sec of State who also has close ties with Russia. He has completely disregarded and insulted our intelligence community dismissing their claims of hacking. In addition to having a bipartisan investigation into the Russian hacking, we must do more. We must postpone the inauguration until we get to the bottom of the Russian hacking and can fully understand its ramifications before we put the unknown quantity of Donald Trump into the power of the White House!
