Kansas needs to support our veterans.

Just today 11/08/12 gasoline has rose .20 , why ? Can anyone tell us ? I believe there is price fixing and a huge monopoly at work here and the last 40 years.Any time big oil wants to get their share holder a couple billion dollars they raise the prices.This is not fair to the American public that is now just out of a ression.Our politicians will not protect us from this illegal business practice.The big oil lobby is too big in Washington. I will not vote in the next election unless this matter is addressed.

San Juan county just became the first in our state to become GMO free. Farmers united with locals to make it so. If we do not protect the integrity of our farms, we cannot insure the safety of our children's futures. GMO's are a corporate intrusion we cannot afford. Let's make Skagit County the second GMO free county!

With the advancement in technology and education, as well as enlarging our citizens the time has come to be rid of the Electoral College. I studied various forms of government and politics while in school and I have come to the conclusion the Electoral College is antiquated and may be a driving force in apathy among young voters. By moving to a percentage system (or other worthy system) we could truly invigorate the youth to be an active participant in our democracy. Living in Texas many feel their vote does not add their voice in major elections and thus decide to not vote, therefore hurting local elections where they could be the real difference in who wins and who loses.

Obama proposed High Speed Rail be created throughout the United States. Somehow or other, it has been side tracked, and/or killed (as by the Florida Governor). I would like to see it prioritized and created throughout the United States as quickly as possible. This is part of the infrastructure that needs attention throughout the country.

The lack of work between the two parties has effected every American even if you didn't think it did. This dysfunction has cost Americans in waste of millions of tax payer money.

Time has come for NBC to retire Donald Trump from national television. His bizarre behavior and callous disregard for much of the citizens of the United States must no longer be rewarded by NBC with a national TV show. NBC should not need any incentive to do the right thing and drop The Apprentice but if you do need an incentive, all signers of this petition promise to boycott purchases from any advertisers of The Apprentice. Please do the right thing for the country and fire the Donald.

Governor Rick Scott has been advocating against Obamacare for Florida and its citizens. Florida citizens sign the petition to tell Governor Scott and the Florida legislature to allow Obamacare for all Florida citizens.

Congress will be back in Washington, D.C., on November 13 and they’ll be making high-stakes decisions on jobs, the Bush tax cuts for the richest 2%, and whether to cut Medicare, Social Security and Medicaid before the end of the year. Corporations and millionaires—who spent record amounts trying to buy the election for Mitt Romney—are going to be spending tens of millions on a full frontal assault in the halls of Congress to keep their special perks. Working families didn’t vote for further attacks on the middle class. Tell your Congress members: No cuts to Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security and no more tax cuts for the richest 2%.

Republicans, it is now time for you to STOP obstructing the passage of the Jobs Bill which is designed to help Veterans make the transition back to peacetime life.
