I believe that voting is a fundamental human right. I belive taxation with out representation is wrong. If a student age 16 can drive, work, get married, drop out of school, and pay taxes they should be granted sufferage and the right to vote in our democracy. By passing a civics test with a score of 70 percent or better on voting laws, students shall be enfranchised to vote in all Municipal, State, and Federal Elections.

We are given no satisfactory or definitive explanation of the use of Chemtrails. Some sources claim that the substances being rained down upon us are harmful to vegetation and those who consume it. Also, that Monsanto and their ilk are creating crops resistant to Chemtrail toxins and thereby creating dependency.

Arresting and detaining a person indefinitely for a crime they have not yet committed and may not commit is contrary to the US Constitution. The courts require a charge be made within 1 to 3 days after arrest.

These wars are evil and we must get out now!

Where is help for responsible homeowners whose underwater mortgages are not through Freddie/Fannie? We need refinancing options that: A) don’t cost a fortune to obtain, B) include 2nd mortgages (especially when held by a different lender than the primary mortgage lender), C) include “Jumbo” loans, D) and last, but not least–waive PMI requirements for homeowners who had previously gotten out from under PMI by paying down their mortgages before the housing collapse. PMI can cost hundreds of dollars each month, putting what could otherwise be an affordable mortgage payment out of reach. Personal history… We maxed out a Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC/2nd mortgage) to pay for autism treatments for our son (not covered by medical insurance or the school system - that's another issue). Then came divorce during the housing valuation/market collapse, causing the Judge to make us tenants-in-common in 2009. The children and I remained in the home, I have made all mortgage payments since divorcing, never been late with either lender, and have zero debt other than the home (pay my credit card bills in full each month). I am financially responsible. The two mortgages together (through separate lenders – Credit Union & local bank) put me in the category of needing a “jumbo” loan. The HELOC/2nd is extremely worrisome, since it makes up about 85% of the total debt, and is variable rate. When interest rates eventually start climbing, I will not be able to afford the HELOC payments and have been trying to head off this scenario by refinancing the two mortgages into a single loan that would give me a stable/affordable monthly payment. But consolidating the two mortgages into a fixed-rate jumbo mortgage with no PMI would require that I bring significant money to the table ($75K - $90K, depending on the details). Right. So, my young teenage children and I sit with this sword of Damocles hanging, wondering how long we will be able to stay in the home, the home they have been in since birth.

When a prisoner goes to jail in certain counties of Missouri they are denied Doctor prescribed medication, even if families are willing to pay for it. One of the effect of quitting some of the prescribed anti-depression medication is suicidal thoughts and attempts. How many suicide cases in the jails were caused by lack of medication.

Mitt Romney should show his birth certificate. How do we know without proof Mitt was born in the US. Romney family has roots in Mexico. Was Mitt actually born in Mexico? Show Us Your Birth Certificate, Mitt.

As a veteran with a step-son deployed, I am very concerned with the rise in active duty suicides (one per day), veterans committing suicide (300 per month), the number of troops dying every month in Afghanistan (on average one per day). These numbers aren't even newsworthy anymore. Peace is not treason.

We have seen the long list of President Obama's accomplishments in the considerably short time that he's been in office. Positive changes that will continue to improve the standard of living for the vast majority of Americans. It would seem the obvious reaction of Republicans to publish their list...unless they just don't have one they want us to know about. So what have you done that we, working class Americans should be voting you in office? Republicans: Where is your list?
