• Mayor Caldwell join MAYORS AGAINST ILLEGAL GUNS
    Hawaii has some of the strictest gun control laws in the nation. By joining Mayors Against Illegal Guns, Honolulu’s newly elected Mayor Kirk Caldwell can share the Aloha State’s best practices with mayors nationwide AND decisively take a bold stand against special interest groups in supporting the 9 out of 10 Americans--many of whom are in his own state of Hawaii—that were first sickened, then mobilized into action by the Sandy Hook tragedy. We are urging Honolulu Mayor Kirk Caldwell to help America stop the horrible epidemic of gun violence! Join Mayors Against Illegal Guns! 41 of our children, friends & family members died in 2012 school shootings. Since Sandy Hook, 6 more are dead. How many more must die before our elected government representatives: •Stand up to greedy self-serving special interest groups. •Listen to the anguished voices of mourning families among the 9 out of 10 Americans crying out for change? We urge you, Honolulu Mayor Caldwell, to support your fellow mayors and the overwhelming majority of people in your state of Hawaii and the nation in demanding background checks and bans on illegal guns! Join Mayors Against Gun Violence!

  • FREE DEALEY PLAZA! 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF JFK'S DEATH HAS BEEN HIJACKED!
    The 50th Anniversary of the Kennedy assassination will be held Nov. 22, 2013 in Dealey Plaza, Dallas, where President John F. Kennedy was shot, but the City of Dallas and the 6th Floor Museum have taken over Dealey Plaza. They say they will allow no mention of Kennedy's death, will allow only city residents entry to Dealey Plaza, issuing entry tickets. All others can assemble in a designated area far from Dealey Plaza, where they can be subject to arrest as felons if any disturbances (which can be created by infiltrators) take place. COPA and others who traditionally spoke on the Grassy Knoll for decades have been denied permits to speak, buy or sell, or to hold a moment of silence. We demand that Dealey Plaza be opened to all Americans. COPA, which traditionally held a moment of silence, eulogies and speeches regarding the assassination, has been denied the expected permit to gather on the Grassy Knoll. This petition is not associated with COPA but stands as a demand for the freedom of speech of the people, and for access to Dealey Plaza for all Americans, without impediments or arrest. The City of Dallas and the 6th Floor Museum will monopolize this event and make their opinions the only ones to be heard. Their actions constitute obstruction of justice for Kennedy and for Oswald..We will demand free access to Dealey Plaza for Nov. 21, 22, 23 and 24, 2013. We will demand that permits will be issued at a reasonable cost and without delays, beginning July 5, 2013. Sign this petition to open Dealey Plaza to ALL AMERICANS today!

  • Tell OneWest Bank to modify mortgages instead of foreclosing!
    OneWest Bank is foreclosing on residential and investment properties across the United States-especially California. Why should I lose my property that I have owned since 1994 because OneWest wants to foreclose instead of modifying our loan under HAMP?? Please tell President Obama to tell OneWest Bank to stop foreclosing on our properties and give us the HAMP loan modification. It is not my fault that I got Multiple Sclerosis. Does OneWest Bank have to further ruin my life by foreclosing on my property instead of giving me the HAMP loan modification that I deserve and can afforrd to pay and keep my property that I have owned for over 18 years??!!

  • Medicaid Expansion Needed in Mississippi
    There are about 300,000 Mississippians who are uninsured because they can't afford to pay for insurance and they aren't eligible for medicaid. It is immoral to keep these people from medical care when it can be made available to them. Besides it would bring into this state hundreds of millions of dollars and create thousands of jobs.

  • Student Loan Lottery
    Student loan debt continues to grow at a steady rate while middle income salaries have flat-lined for 30 years and the ideals of earning a degree to contribute to society both financially and socially are dwindling. Citizens want to continue their pursuit of their American Dream and they are willing to try anything to reel in their debt and start building capital, including playing lottery games like Powerball. We have learned quickly that few win in Powerball, and their winnings don't make much of a difference to the rest of us playing. I request that we consider a nationwide Student Loan Lottery game. Players (both with debt or without) could purchase tickets either online or at convenience stores. Jackpots could be used to pay student loan debt incurred to that date, if short, remaining debt would remain, if some funds remained following payoff - they could be added to the future jackpot. In essence, we could pay off each others student loan debts and truly make a difference.

  • Stop Climate Change. We are the pivotal generation.
    Writing-Climate Change 2/5/2013 Climate change is not just another issue. It is the issue beyond all issues. It is the turning point of the planet towards its demise - or the demise of the people and other living things upon it. To believe that it is another issue like economic justice, gay rights, legalizing marijuana, or ending the war, is to be caught in the mass hypnosis of our times. This is the most pivotal issue of existence, the impact of which will be felt for all time. We are the pivotal generation. The crime of climate change is that it is imposed on all people's of the earth. It results in huge suffering, wars, mass starvation and death. First islands will go and cities on low lying coasts. People in third world nations will be without food and water. Extreme and deadly climate events will destroy the economy, raising prices and leading to more misery. They will take the lives of many and destroy their property and livelihood. The seasons for most will become more difficult to endure. The future of our children and our grandchildren is being destroyed. We are deciding to allow the sickening and dying for the planet for all time and all beings. We cannot stand by as this happens. We must cry out in huge numbers and say: Stop! Climate change cannot be allowed and must be reversed. This is non-negotiable. We have broken our hypnosis. To risk the planet for the sake of the greed of private enterprise is not just a political position you can be for or against. It is the biggest crime ever perpetuated. It is the murder of the planet. It is a crime before which all other crimes pale. Stop! This is not the work of the moral. God does not condone this. Nor does Jesus Christ, Buddha, Mohammad. Allah, or any God man or woman. This is the work of the devil or the demented. It is wrong and we will not allow it." Please sign this petition and pass it on!. We are the pivotal generation. Which way it turns, and how fast, is in our hands.

  • Advertising Abuses on Cable TV
    This petition asks the rules about advertising be applied to cable TV. Cable TV has almost continuous advertising through pop-up windows that distract greatly from the program being watched. I notice that the actual ads do not allow channel identification because it would detract from the message.

  • Stop Drone Assassinations without due process
    We are a country of laws and targeting Americans or foreigners without producing evidence or charging them, without due process, without allowing them to surrender is contrary to our founding core principles as a nation. We must uphold the values that have guided this country from the beginning and provide for the filing of charges and the judicial system to work out justice according to the evidence. We have three branches of government for a reason, to provide necessary checks and balances.
