The country would be better served if there were term limits for Congress. This would help to reduce some of the gridlock that we are seeing as members wouldn't be so worried about reelection and would vote their conscience versus party lines. What you have right now is everyone concerned about reelection and voting party lines versus whats best for the country.

Poll workers are one of the most important positions undertaken by citizens across this country during elections. For a number of reasons,a very limited number of individuals are able to take time off from their jobs to undertake these duties. As a result, these positions are severely undermanned on election day. Working the polls is as important as serving on a jury.

met deze petitie kaarten wij het huidige probleem aan in de klj, een heel weinig activiteiten, een leegloop van leden, een gebrek aan eenheid, en een gebrek aan sfeer.

Change is needed to abolish the Electoral College so that we have a popular vote and states that do have a higher population can have fair representation in voting.U.S. Electoral College is the body of elected officials who actually vote for the president of the United States.

Since the Supreme Court ruled in favor of Citizens United, vast sums of money are being poured into election campaigns, particularly the presidential one. Most of these funds are supposedly used to purchase political advertising, particularly television spots. Passing a constitutional amendment to remove big money from politics will take many years, even if proponents are successful. However, voters can choose to boycott all political advertising, publicly acknowledge their stance and encourage others to do the same. This petition is actually a statement by individual voters that they will use the mute button on their television remotes whenever a political advertisement appears on their screens and refuse to consume printed and radio commercials as well. If this "boycott" eventually attracts the public attention of even a small percentage of voters, the effect of campaign contributions should be substantially reduced as media outlets, politicians, and corporations react to this citizen action.

Banking with off-shore banks; where the identities of the depositors are secret, and/or the amount of money is secret, makes this person unfit for the office of President of the United States. Men and women put their lives on the line every day, yet Governor Romney is not willing to support this country with his fair share of taxes. The middle-class and the poor carry the tax burden of this country.

In light of news stories exposing individuals on the U.S. House of Representatives Science Committee delivering scientifically inaccurate statements, like Rep. Paul Broun's claim that the earth is only 9,000 years old, I believe that it should be necessary for a member of a congressional committee to have to pass an aptitude test on the subject matter covered. For example, a senator vying for a spot on the Finance Committee should have to pass an exam on economics at the level one would expect a committee member in that standing to have.

This election has proven how informed we must be to elect a candidate. We have a wealth of information in the world that's already conflicting, but we should not and cannot accept candidates from either party that tells falsehoods or misleads those empowered to vote. It's vital and should be a REQUIREMENT that their stances be true, true shifts in views changes, not for political reasons. We need to make sure we ELECT the best person for the job based on truth and credentials so we do not endanger our future or our right to vote. We are calling for the requirement of fact checks for political ads before running and during debates to help educate and protect voters and our country.

Mitt Romney needs to release 10 years of tax returns to the American people to show how much he paid in taxes and whether he received amnesty from The IRS. We need this information to be an informed voter.
