Explain the Republican PlatformIn attempts to run from their own party's stated agenda, Romney and Ryan are pretending that it really doesn't matter what that platform says. I want them to walk through each plank in the republican platform and identify whether they support or don't support it and why. (And if it's there and they DON'T support it, why is it there?) That is the least the American people deserve.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by jeri albrecht

The MORMON MASSACRE cover up!What do American voters really know about the history and beliefs of Mitt Romney’s racist religion? What do Mormons really think about Blacks, Gays and Hispanics? How did they accumulate such wealth? We know Mitt’s religion has helped shape his political policies? So let us see how. http://current.com/entertainment/movies/93884034_the-mormon-massacre-how-they-murdered-innocent-women-and-children.htm1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Terry

Keep our pool open for all Largo taxpayers to use!Every year our pool offers less and less hours for taxpayers who actually pay for the pool are able to use it. I am an avid swimmer in Florida–I want the pool to be open so I can use it. Once "summer" ends & school begins, the pool closes on saturdays. Once October comes the two nights a week the pool is open from June to October close. The rest of the year: October thru June the pool is open from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. I work as a teacher, own a house, so I pay property tax, and cannot use my city's pool! It is ridiculous! Ideas I have thought of is to sue the city because as a resident and tax payer I cannot use my rec center's pool. In the afternoon, the pool is rented out to a private entity. (Citizens used to have 3 lanes to use during the afternoon, now none). Obviously, Florida is hot just about all year long–the pool should be available all year long! 2nd idea, like Gandhi's non-violent actions, I would like to petition citizens who cannot use the pool to escrow the portion of their taxes that go to the operation of the pool until they open the pool, make it accessible to tax payers. Fitness counts, so does a healthy lifestyle! The director of the pool makes a good salary. He should be held accountable to make the pool accessible or lose his job. The president's council agrees that a healthy lifestyle is important. Let's leave the pool open for all citizens of Largo, Florida to use on a daily basis!14 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kris

Child Support Reform in OhioThis is to demand Ohio Child Support Guidelines be revised. Too many families are struggling to pay impossible amounts of child support, only to support the Ex's and NOT the children who are the ones to be provided for. Actual costs to care for a child, not your amount of income need to be considered in support orders and custodial parents need to be held accountable for the money awarded to them!12 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jaymie Payne

Obama/Romney Unite to Stop Auto-weapon SalesOur country seems to be in the grip of the National Rifle Association. Neither candidate can say anything about controlling the sale of automatic weapons. I want to ask the two presidential candidates to step up TOGETHER and propose a reasonable gun control law that they BOTH sign. No big change, just the elimination of sub-machine gun sales. This will not change either candidates support group but will send a message supporting rational behavior.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Leslie Kruth

Acknowledge your vote.Remember when Iraq voted and came away with the Purple finger to signify the fact they voted. They turned out in overwhelming numbers, Every Middle Eastern Country allowed to vote do so in overwhelming numbers. So do any country other than the United States of America. I propose some type of recognition readily seen to acknowledge those who cast their ballot. Be it Democrat, Republican or Independent. At least they voted.6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jim Tomes

Ticking time bomb - driving while distractedRecently, 4 young women were killed in a motor vehicle accident related to driving while distracted. These deaths are part of 35,000 annual fatalities and one half million bodily injuries occuring on our roads each year. Many of these accidents are the results of distracted driving from cell phone use and texting. We would like President Obama to make this a DNC platform issue. It is our hope that he would pledge to reduce road fatalities by half during his next four year term.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by nathan wright

Making Organic Food Cost Competitive With Conventional Produce Through Changes of the Farm BillI, like millions of Americans, struggle to find a balance between eating healthy, and having enough money to be able to afford the other things we need to have an enjoyable life. My petition argues that we for too long have used the Farm Bill to subsidize the production of corn when the Farm Bill was intended to figure out how to subsidize farmers. We currently have less than 10% of the funds go towards Organic, Sustainable, and producers of the like. I want all organic farmers to have the chance to obtain in the united states an annual, renewable, 10k+ loan to help scale-up their small, local, organic farms to allow for organic food to become more cost competitve with conventional Produce.9 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Matthew Doyle
