Time has come for the Federal Government to Legalize the Medical use of CannabisDemocracy means a Government of the People by the People and for the People. With over 75% of all Americans polled in favor of Legalization of Marijuana for the sick and dieing, 75% is far more than a simple majority so who's interests are being served everytime the Obama Administration orders more arrests? Not our interests. Soon, more than 50% of all the States in America will have voted and passed similar laws yet no discussion is being held to talk about a National Ballot Initiative. The idea of a National vote on this issue terrifies those who most benifit by keeping Marijuana use illegal. This Governments position indicates that our Deomcratic System is in danger. They serve the interests of the Banks that launder the drug money prohibition generates, the special interests and huge budgets currently being wasted for America's Criminal Juustice Corperation starting at the CIA, FBI, DEA, DOJ, The Pentagon's special intervention unit all the way down the money trail to a Prison Industry that is far more oppressive than even those found in Middle Eastern Countries. Our tax dollars are currently building a Militarized Police State where the Peace officers do everything but offer a peaceful interdiction. This criminal justice system has become addicted to the trillions of dollars being pumped into it yearly. If you love America then please sign this petition, have everyone you know sign it as well. We are running out of time. America is quickly becoming a waste land. Demand that they do what we hired them to do or let's fire them. What Democracy isn't is a Government that feels it knows whats best for it's people, despite overwhelming opinion. America is in a dangerous position, we more resemble Communist China and the Soviet Union of the 80s than we resemble the America of my youth.6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Glenn Smith

PUBLICALLY FUNDED PRESIDENTIAL AND CONGRESSIONAL CAMPAIGNSPut an end to the wasteful and obscene amounts of money spent on our Presidential and Congressional elections. Support and demand a CONSTITUTIONAL AMMENDMENT to mandate publicly funded federal campaigns of our elected representatives. The campaigns would last a maximum of 6-months immediately prior to the national election date. Primaries would occur over the first 3-months and the final or main campaigns would take place the last 3-months. The campaigns would include two mandated debates during the primaries and two debates during the final campaigns. No other monies from other sources, could be used by any of the candidates for their campaigns. Level the playing field, limit the influence of big dollar peddlers, debate the issues, and shorten the time of ad nauseum campaigning. WE HAVE ALL BEEN AFFECTED BY THE CURRENT ABHORRENT POLITICAL CIRCUS!1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by ROD OSWALT

Stop bill collectors from issuing a warrant for your arrestDid you know that you could be be arrested for an unpaid bill? Judges have signed off on 5,000 debt-related arrest warrants since 2010. Under the law, debtors aren't arrested for nonpayment, but rather for failing to respond to court hearings, pay legal fines, or otherwise showing "contempt of court" in connection with a creditor lawsuit. I found out the hard way when I received a letter stating that there has been a request sent to the courts asking them to issue a warrant for my arrest unless I contact the courts to make payment arrangements. Long story short; when I went to talk to the court clerk, I was told that I had to pay $50.00 towards my bill or a warrant would be issued for my arrest. Imagine the fear and overwhelming stress that this put on my family. I had to come up with money in order for them to give me a court date and to avoid arrest (for now). I have been lucky so far, but there are others out there that don't have a clue that there has been a warrant issued for their arrest until the cops come knocking on the door or they get pulled over for a minor traffic violation and go to jail. When they go in front of the judge they are told to they have to pay all, or part, of the debt or remain in jail until it is paid. Here is the kicker! The money goes to the creditor. If a person cannot come up with the money then they will stay in jail indefinitely. We cannot continue to allow debt collectors to use the courts for this unconstitutional practice.31 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Lisa Hendrix

Campaign Finance Constitutional AmendmentWith all the secrecy and big money surrounding political campaigns, our government officials are heavily influenced by outside interests. If a lobbyist, private citizen, or corporation can donate millions of dollars to get a candidate elected, aren't you worried they want something in return for that cash? As a result, we mostly get policies that are good for the big money donors but not what the majority of Americans think is best for the country. A constitutional amendment can end the unfair influence of private money in state and federal elections, and can provide candidates free and equal access to public television and radio to make campaigns about the issues and facts and not about the special interests.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Nicholas Ferreira

Corporate worker on all Board of DirectorsSome governments require an elected worker to a seat on the board of Directors of all Corporations. This is good for many reasons, but with a different worker elected annually, they are not easy to corrupt. Workers will then be alerted to excessive CEO compensation and or excessive corporate profits, therefore minimizing the constant threats of refusal to keep wages current. I move that the federal government require any PRIVATE CONTRACTOR/CORPORATION to have a seat on their board of Directors for an annually elected worker.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Gloria Hariharan
