we need to put a piece of legislation on the ballot to tax all religious organizations If a church is providing community service as many do it should re register itself as a community organization

IF MR. ROMNEY BECOMES THE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR THE PRESIDENCY, HIS FULL NAME, WILLARD MITT ROMNEY, SHOULD APPEAR ON THE BALLOT.

Make adults follow the same rules and laws regarding bullying that we expect our school children to follow. Children learn what they live. How can we expect their behaviors to change when the adults, in particular those in the news on a daily basis and parents, do not follow the rules.

label g.m.o.s we need to be able to make informed choices

Currently, by their own admission to Congress, the Petroleum industry is only drilling in about 25% of the places they currently hold leases to drill, but they refuse to return the rest of the leases for reissue to others. Passing this act would reduce the price of gas at the pump (the law of supply and demand DOES work), put more people back to work (the closed down refineries would reopen), protect fragile eco-systems like the gulf and the artic (since the currently held leases are NOT in those areas), and take the control of our economy out of the hands of the petroleum industry.

One of the great joys of using OnDemand recorded shows used to be the ability to fast forward through advertising at will. Now Comcast is allowing more and more networks to disable the fast forward functions of Customers set top digital receivers.

Everyone agrees that the discourse in the public square has gotten very acrimonious. Rather than waiting for our leaders to improve the atmosphere we as citizens should take personal responsibility to affect the change by pledging to communicate with others in a moderate and non threatening manner and avoid name calling histrionics. Operating like Pass It On each of us can be a voice for moderation !

Everyone knows the dialogue in the public square has turned negative and acrimonious. Everyone expects better but is waiting for someone else to change things. This petition is a vehicle to engage our leaders and ourselves as citizens in taking responsibility for making change occur. By pledging to initiate and maintain a standard of fairness,moderation and reasonableness signers will be creating a visible commitment to action. Similar to the Pass It On movement all citizens and leaders will apply this standard to their interactions in matters of public policy and discourse.

Corpsman are given a comprehensive medical education. It is not worth much in the civilian world so they are only able to get a job as an aide or tech. They are not given the value and monies they should when leaving the service. They are able and do save lives and not just BCLS! Their education is far beyond the scope of a registered nurse. I am an RN with my BSN and MSN. I think there should be a college or two (three) that teaches Corpsman to RN. The professors might be previous Corpsman. At the very least it should be an accelerated program taking into account all they have learned with no need for repeat. Their are accelerated programs now for people with any type of Bachelor's to obtain eligibility to take the RN exam. We should give these talented individuals the opportunity to serve in the medical field. We know their is a shortage in the military for Nurses and this sure would help along with the need for civilian nurses. They should be guaranteed a spot in the program if they are in good military standing.

Everyone should sign this petition to help bring down the price of gas. When President Bill Clinton did this it caused the oil prices to plummet! By causing a glut on the market.

Saving our United States Postal Service. Benjamin Franklin was appointed first American Postmaster General in 1775; before America was even a nation we had the benefits of a national postal delivery service. The United States Postal Service is the one government agency that touches every American on a daily basis, democracy in action. But saving the USPS is not about nostalgia, it is about the best possible future for Americans and our economy. We ask our Senators to take the advice of Google and other 21st Century entrepreneurs: Keep six day delivery, keep door-to-door delivery, and repeal the pre-funding mandate. Vote against S. 1789 as written. Save our United States Postal Service.

This is about one of the ways voter suppression is happening in Ohio.
