We are concerned we will be pulled in a war with Iran that can easily escalate to the use of nuclear weapons. All it will take is Israel to provoke an attack. War game scenarios predict dramatic escalation within the region from this point, as well as attacks in Europe and the US.

I, like millions of Americans, struggle to find a balance between eating healthy, and having enough money to be able to afford the other things we need to have an enjoyable life. My petition argues that we for too long have used the Farm Bill to subsidize the production of corn when the Farm Bill was intended to figure out how to subsidize farmers. We currently have less than 10% of the funds go towards Organic, Sustainable, and producers of the like. I want all organic farmers to have the chance to obtain in the united states an annual, renewable, 10k+ loan to help scale-up their small, local, organic farms to allow for organic food to become more cost competitve with conventional Produce.

Require tht President of the United States to veto any proposed law authorizing military and/or foreign aid to a country condemed by a majority vote of the General Assembly of the United Nations.

I wish to march on the US Supreme Court to get all local voter ID laws not recognizing proof or residency such as home, apartment, student ID, or tax address thrown out or put on hold for the duration of 2012. These laws do not recognize the civil right of all citizens to vote.

As we have seen this election year, certain candidates do not feel they should have to share their IRS income tax return with the nation when they run for office. I believe the policy needs to be changed as the President helps set the budget and choose where the tax money is spent.

बस्तर में दण्डकवन के ऋषि कहे जाने वाले लेखक/कवि लाला जगदलपुरी वैसे तो किसी पुरस्कार के मोहताज नहीं हैं। लाला जी १९३६ से लेखनरत हैं..उनका हिन्दी के साथ-साथ छत्तीसगढी तथा बस्तर की लोकभाषा हल्बी एवं भतरी में भी लेखन-प्रकाशन उपलब्ध है। लाला जगदलपुरी भले ही आज 94 वर्ष के हो गये हों किंतु उनका लेखन ही आज भी बस्तर अंचल की पहचान है। लाला जगदलपुरी के लेखन से पूर्व बस्तर से बाहर के लोग यहाँ की संस्कृति को बहुत हीं संकुचित रूप में देखा करते थे। वे इसे एल्विन, ग्रियर्सन, ग्रिग्सन और ग्लासफर्ड के नजरिये से देखा करते थे लेकिन इन्हें पढकर बस्तर की समृद्ध संस्कृति को उसकी समग्रता में समझने-बूझने का मौका मिला। लाला जी ने घोटुल की आत्मा को समझा और उसकी सच्चाई लिखी.. लाला जगदलपुरी जगदलपुर से प्रकाशित साप्ताहिक ’अंगारा’ में सम्पादक, रायपुर से प्रकाशित ’देशबन्धु’ में सहायक सम्पादक, महासमुंद से प्रकाशित ’सेवक’ में सम्पादक और जगदलपुर से बस्तर की लोकभाषा ’हल्बी’ में प्रकाशित साप्ताहिक ’बस्तरिया’ में सम्पादक रहे। बस्तर अंचल में हाल हीं में कराये गए सर्वेक्षण में पाया गया कि इनका नाम बस्तर अंचल के ८४ प्रतिशत शिक्षित/अशिक्षित दोनों हीं प्रकार के लोग भली भांति जानते हैं। लाला जगदलपुरी अब वयोवृद्ध हो गये हैं तथा उनके कार्य को पद्मश्री जैसा सम्मान अब तक न मिल पाना बस्तर अंचल के पिछडेपन के कारण ही हुआ है। इस अंचल की महानतम कलम को पद्मश्री दिया जाये यह हमारी विनम्र माँग हैं।

Owner of Gillums Sports Bar called my family members racial slurs while he was drinking in the establishment during our family reunion. He didn't want us to use his equipment and we had paid and was told we could without any problem.

An appeal to American citizens to help us reach out to congress to empower Gambians against the threats of Dictator Yaya Jammeh, and to the US Attorney General to seize all of dictator Yaya Jammeh's ill gotten wealth in the United States.

I think when Mitt Romney said that he had never been asked to show his birth certificate he was trying to be funny and somehow imply that the Tea Party people asking for Obama's birth certificate implies there's something wrong with Obama but in fact most people have to show there birth certificate to enroll in school or get a job or apply for a passport which are all things that Romney did so how could Romney's assertion be true?

This petition issues a call for the RIGHT of all American citizens to access a National Comprehensive Health Care System. Health Care for all Americans is a moral and just principle. At the age of 61, and "down-sized", I was unable to purchase reliable and cost effective health care.

The U S Congress men and women have become careers for many and have lost touch with what it is like to live in the hometowns and live by the same rules. So since the positions started out as civil service commitments and not careers let's continue the concept the founding fathers had in mind. In addition, the Congress men and women spend too much of their time in their re-election effort rather than in guiding the country and negotiating with the "other side of the aisle".

Unemployed & trying to get back onto my feet!
