SPLC is NOT at fault for shootingTony Perkins is trying to place to blame on the Southern Poverty Law Center for the recent shooting of a security guard in the arm at the Conservative Family Research Center by a disturbed and angry activist. When you continuously spout hate-speech, incivility and prejudice you should look in the mirror before passing blame.72 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Lisa Nicholson

Write in Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth WarrenEncourage voters in the November 2012 Presidential and Vice Presidental elections to write in names of Bernie Sanders for President and Elizabeth Warren for Vice President. They are the only persons of national prominence whom have the individual integrity and the public's confidence to break the stranglehold of special interest money in the selection and control over the partisan candidates for those offices before and after the election.14 of 100 SignaturesCreated by George English

Loan Forgiveness Program For Social WorkersThe field of social work has played such an important role in our society for hundreds of years, yet it is still a field that continues to not have as much respect within the social welfare arena. Social workers can be found in numerous career settings such as, public welfare agencies, hospitals, non-profit agencies, school systems, private and public industries, reservations and more, yet the salaries remain considerably low in many states and don't keep pace with the cost of living. Student loan debt is considerably higher than the annual salary. The Department of Education has made provisions for loan forgiveness programs for fields such as medical and Peace Corp. Social Workers should also be included in the the loan forgiveness program immediately. Who is with us? Join our cause to be included...15 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Pia King, MSW

Level the FieldPolitical campaigns waste money on expensive media ads. That money could be used for for so many other good causes (see the recent NBC nightly news segment on this point from 8/16/12). I hereby will stop giving money to political campaigns and demand that a new system be implemented that will level the field: all information about political candidates will be disseminated only by their personal websites, party websites or news media interviews and stories. No more profit for big media from political ads! I will not contribute! Change the system now! Level the Field!5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by David Rothstein

Teach Democrats How to ArgueI haven't heard a Dem ask why we should trust people who want to save our children's future by cutting funding for their education, I haven't heard a Dem point out that most families use deficit spending to buy a house, a car, finance an education, or feed the kids when there's no money in the till. Why the silence?5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Gary Jones

Campaign Honesty EssentialI do not think I am the only one who is tired of candidates lying about one another or other campaign issues to the point that voters often do not know what is truth. I would like to see more accountability and sanctions for public falsehoods. For example, we could have a non-partisan watchdog organization impose large public fines for false statements, with the revenue to be used for campaing reform..11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Bonnie Pannell

"Let everyone in Ohio vote early, not just a few"My name is Kevin Davis, and the reason why, I'm starting this petition is to let people know what's going on here in Ohio, as it pertains to early voting this year, that what the Secretary of State Husted is doing is a form of voter suppression, and that it's wrong.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kevin Davis

Franklin County Board of Elections, Roll Back New Restrictions on Early Voting!For months, Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted has personally acted to restrict early voting in counties with large Democratic populations—casting tie-breaking votes to limit voting to weekdays from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. in urban areas like Franklin County, where in previous elections 82% of early voters did so on nights or weekends. Now he is considering implementing these restrictions statewide. This is unacceptable. My petition seeks to get the Franklin County Board of Elections to publicly support expanded early voting hours across Ohio.2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Luke Toney
