SOPA is threatening the internet as we know it. Sites that support any form of file sharing such as YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and even joke websites such as FunnyJunk, MemeBase, and 9Gag will all be blacked out if SOPA is passed. SOPA will destroy the internet, not only for Americans, but for the world and for anyone on this planet with a computer. America doesn't own the internet, no one country does, and SOPA is arrogant to think that we can control a global research and networking device. If SOPA is passed, the world will suffer from it. We cant force our laws on the entire planet, let alone something as infinite and beautiful as the internet. Please don't let SOPA ruin the internet for the world. You have the power to stop them.

The Supreme Court has taken a hard turn in favor of the 1% being able to buy elections. The Congress can override this trend, in favor of real democracy, and return power to the 99% at the ballot box. This power of Congress is already in the Constitution. A constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United is not needed.

"NEWARK, NJ Elnardo Webster has stated that he will petition the courts to cease an investigation in to the Newark Watershed, using tax payors monies. We are asking you to sign this petition, for our voices will not be silenced by our dollars. Overspending and Underaccountabilty has to stop!"

Kip Smith R of Georgia wants to drug test welfare recipients to receive benefits. Kip was just arrested for drunk driving. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/01/16/kip-smith-dui-arrest_n_1209365.html?ref=politics

According to Rep Moura (RI) Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac have been making it impossible for homeowners to keep their homes. Fanny and Freddie are asking for more bailout money and pushing up foreclosure rates using federal programs. Expose the federal programs that are hurting homeowners instead of helping them.

We support the idea of creating a Federal Deficit Bond, which is provided to citizens in exchange for any tax increase.

With the advent of Super PACs after the Citizens United decision we have seen millions upon millions of dollars spent by Super PACs in the first three primary states. These ads are invariably negative in character and are played incessantly during election cycles to the point of mind numbness. The negativeness of these ads is disavowed by candidates since theoretically the Super PACs are out of their direct control and the truthfulness is often suspect. Although required to disclose donors, Super PACs routinely postpone disclosure until well after the elections they participate in. We feel that the monies for these negative ads would be better spent on the poor or on paying down the national debt.

Senators & congresspeople should not be allowed to serve more than 2 terms in office. They become complacent, lazy, & vulnerable to corruption & corporate handouts. They need to be reminded who put them in office.

Im sure this has been done but I propose congress serve 2four terms elections mid term of potus, senate remain he same. Politicial office should not be career. Once it's not others will want to serve bases on altruistic movements and not for financial gain

For our system of government to be a true democracy, no private money should be permitted in political campaigning. Furthermore, every candidate for political office should should be selected by a special committee within the political party.

By current rules, Congresspersons can pose an amendment which can have little or nothing to do with an essential bill, which will almost certainly be passed. A case in point is the allowance of loaded guns in national parks, sneakily amended to the Credit Card reform bill, which passed.

What was once a useful tool to prevent the majority from riding roughshod over the minority, in the Senate, has become a tool for preventing any work from being done and keeps the majority from meeting the needs of its constituents. It's time for the filibuster to change. If each party were limited to three filibusters, in each session of Congress, they would be used very cautiously and only for the most critical of reasons.
