• Make Congressmen/women adhere to standards set for all of us.
    Congressmen/women have better healthcare, pensions & just about everything else than the general population. We could go a long way to reduce government spending and reduce passage of legislation that is abusive to the citizenry if we brought them down to our level. This affects all of us and, I think, has the support of most of this great country regardless of party affiliation.

  • Release your tax returns, Mitt Romney (10 years)
    Mitt Romney needs to come clean with the American people and release his tax returns. He had his vice presedential candidate submit ten years and Romney needs to do the same. If he is elected, then it is too late to get this information out to the public.

  • Focus on Congress
    The press and media spends most of its time talking about the Presidential race. That is fine in an election year, but I don't think enough emphasis is placed on focusing on the job that our congressmen and woman and our senators are doing. I think we need a petition to periodically give the American people a report card of how our elected officials are doing to further the course of this country.

  • Provide paper records for Arkansas voters
    Many of my friends and neighbors, particularly senior citizens, have expressed their frustration with paperless voting machines in Arkansas. Without a paper record of their vote, the door is opened for potential voter fraud and widespread disenfranchisement. We are calling for a return to a process that provides a hard copy of voting records to ensure that our state's elections are open, fair, and exact.

  • Term Limits for the Senate & Congress
    In order to remove the current gridlock where interest groups pander to senators and congressmen who view their positions as life long employment, a two time service - as with the 22nd Amendment will provide fresh blood and an avenue for folks who want to serve their country rather than their own pockets.

  • Campaign Finance Reform
    Currently 400 of the wealthiest individuals are deciding what legislation is going to be passed, based on their own interests. This has led to deregulation and tax breaks. Legislators are being bribed every day by lobbyists because people (and corporations apparently) can donate unlimited funds to campaigns. I am proposing a limit of $100 per person per candidate for campaign donations. We spoke about this at Fighting Bob Fest on September 15th in Madison, Wisconsin

  • North Carolina Political Parties Elect Your Party Leaders
    This petition is about fairness, accountability and the democratic process. I call on the North Carolina Democratic and Republican Parties to change the way they elect their leaders to allow all registered party members to vote on who represents them. A political party that does not elect its leaders by popular vote has no legitimacy.

  • Cut Congressional Salaries
    Government might default because of possible sequestration. The sequester details cuts from Medicare , housing needs for the poor, food safety, Army, etc. _EXCEPTING the salaries of Congressional lawmakers. These are the very people whose salaries should be cut first and proportionally, as we get closer to the deadlie. These are the very people whose inaction brought the country to the brink last year. It's time to cut Congressional lawmakers' salaries NOW!
