An end is needed to allow legislation to be passed or obstructed based on party donor affiliation. These affiliations are directly related to lobbyists whose interests go beyond the common good. The Supreme Court needs to ensure Bills are not put forward or obstructed, and prevent direct correlation to campaign donors who are clear to gain or lose financially.

Apply all of the truth in advertising laws to political campaigns and make it illegal to present lies or any other distortion as fact.

The Congressional members should have the SAME retirement and/or social security benefits as working class Americans!

It is ludicrous to impose term limits on the executive level of government and not to impose the same limits upon other elected officials This is a petition to limit publicly elected officials to two terms in each office at the federal and state level. Becoming a senator should not be a life-long career for any persons. Rather a honor and duty which one has the possibility to fulfill. Being elected to represent the public is an honor not a career path. What power will a filibuster have if that official only has 2 terms MAXIMUM to serve in any specifically elected office. Keep the public sphere public and end career politicians. This is the USA not ancient Rome. New voices are integral to the success of the democratic/republic process Perhaps this will be incentive for less greed in this branch, perhaps it will be more. But this is a strong message from the people. You have limits now.

I am sick and tired of Congress not working together to solve the problems of the country. The Republicans are trying to make the president fail and are just voting on a party line. We the people need to unite and remind them that they need to do what is right for the country. I hope both Republicans and Democrats will join me in expressing outrage at the behavior of our supposed representatives of the people.

I would like ALL political ads to be checked for factual content Before they are allowed to air on TV?Radio/ Press.

I believe any serious candidate for the highest office in the country should be a proponent of "Full Disclosure" as it relates to Federal Taxes.

I believe that with today's fractured parties it is time to require a candidate to get a majority of votes cast to win an election. There are too many cases where a spoiler candidate allows a candidate to win an election where they would have been second even a distant second if the spoiler candidate was not in the race.

A politician shouldn't be allowed to switch parties or be an independent until the next election cycle when that person runs again so we know exactly what that person stands for. I don't want to support someone who goes with the trend to help themselves and not the people who supported that person.

Our Federally elected representatives have provided themselves the best benefit package for themselves. They have NO accountability in regards to paying themselves more, or improving any of their benefits. Eliminate the Pension and go to a 401k.

Why is it that we can count each person's vote when voting for Senators and Representatives but not for the President? Yes, I know the Electoral College is part of the Constitution, but times have changed and so should parts of documents that become outdated. I would very much like to see a constitutional amendment, eliminating the Electoral College and declaring that the President be elected by popular vote. No more red and blue states. That's ridiculous and gives a few states too much say in the election.

There is far too much ignorance about hunger today. Too much demonization of the poor who are on SNAP and too much disinformation by those who know little about what being on Food Stamps is really like.
