Our beaches are being turned into ashtrays. Cigarette butts, along with other trash and debris are consuming our beaches every summer. Smokers continue to toss butts on to the beaches across New England. It needs to stop. Please support a ban on smoking on our beaches.

This is about campiagns that smear the opponent. With a wad of cash a candidate can overrun the airwaves with misleading information about the opposition. If a candidate is going to bring up an issue, a position, or a peronal attack on an opposing candidate, the attacking candidate should have to pay for equal time for the victim to respond.

Our planet is faced by very rapid global warming and other changes in climate. These changes are the direct result of careless human activities that include deforestation, fossil fuel burning, pollution with particulate matter, increased CO2 in the atmosphere and other factors. As a society, we need to address this issue immediately, and the lack of discussion of this serious problem by either campaign is detrimental to our nation's well-being.

Energy production, especially on public lands, involves more than just energy production--it often affects the water resource. In the future, we will be scrambling for all the clean fresh water we can find. Our surface waters are rapidly becoming polluted. Processes like "fracking" are frequently damaging our aquifers too. Please don't let energy production trump clean water.

My petition is about encouraging President Obama to continue the concern of gun violence in America. He talked about gun violence, gun control and the families impacted by this type of violence during the debate. I have also been personally impacted by gun violence when I lost my innocent 16-year-old son, Blair Holt, May 10,2007. President Obama, then an Illinois U.S. Senator seeking the democratic presidential nomination, called my cell to express his condolences to me.

Overturn the "citizen's united" ruling by te supreme court allowing unlimited corporate funding to influence elections and legislation.

I have watched the campaign with deep disappointment!!!

The country (taxpayers) has bailed out Wall Street and the auto industry, how about our the common folks who owe many thousands of dollars in student loans? This would be a stimulus from the bottom up and take a great burden off millions of families.

When my husband signed up with the US Air Force many years ago, we were told then that if he retired with the Air Force, we would receive free medical care for the rest of our lives. It sounded good to us to be taken care of. Now we are having to deal with TriCare, paying out of pocket expenses we were not prepared for. Our own government promised this to us and consistently threatens to up our fees again and again. I am calling on you to put a stop to the rising fees that are putting a strain on the military retirees with government health insurance. (Tricare). We kept our promise and continued to support our country. Now, we're asking you to support us as we supported you for many years.

I am a Democrat living in Texas. I am represented by Republicans in the House and Senate. I didn't vote for these individuals. They don't support the Affordable Healthcare Act, bills for equal pay, regulating pollution/clean air and water, supporting domestic violence victims, a woman's right to choose/access to contraceptives, ending the Bush Tax cuts for the very wealthy. Are you represented by congressmen/women, and senators that you voted for/didn't vote who don't represent your interests/beliefs? These men and women were bought by special interest lobbyists. If so, I urge you to fire the bums and vote for Democrats/Progressive candidates. It's time for the gridlock caused by Republicans and Tea Party congresspeople/senators to end. It's time to move forward and address many issues that affect Americans. We need to pass legislation that will help veterans, students, the unemployed, women, the poor, illegal immigrants, the elderly. The time has come for change in Congress.
