My petition is about reaching voters, mainly senior voters. Ads are on TV and the internet, etc. attempting to explain issues to voters in the upcoming 2012 Presidential election. But I have failed to see ads in NEWSPAPERS across the nation, explaining, simply, and precisely the differences in the political/social issues of the Democratic Party and Republican Party. This petition is directed towards ACTION by the Democratic Party, which in my opinion, needs to get their message across in the most broad, simple, and understandable language....to those seniors and other "independent" and "undecided" voters.....that for whatever reason...still may be confused on the issues between the two poliical parties.

This petition is to insure that the voters receive the truth in campaign ads aired on the televsion and radio, and ads sent in the mail.

As a school social worker, I have seen the devastating effects of poverty on children's emotional development and academic achievement (poverty threshold for family of four: $22,314). Children born into poverty in the United States are 43% more likely than their peers from higher income families to live in poverty as adults. Poverty lowers the probability of these children becoming productive citizens and cheating our nation of future innovative and dynamic leaders.

North Carolina lawmakers want Governor Perdue to turn down federal funding for Medicaid under Obamacare. Please urge her to accept these funds.

Currently, most states employ a "winner-take-all" approach to the electoral college, so that if a presidential candidate gets the majority of the votes in a state, he or she receives all of the electoral votes for that state. As a result, candidates tend to focus only on swing states in campaigns.

Wyoming wolves will be hunted on a cruel and ruthless huge scale if Wyoming politicians and the Fish and Wildlife folks have their way! Protect the Wyoming wolves from this senseless massive hunt now!

You don't know what to believe in Political ads

For every dollar a man makes, woman only make 79 cents, I'm a single mother and I can use every penny, it isn't fair that I have to work just as hard as a man but I don't get paid just as much.

I feel that Pennsylvanian's are being kept from their privilege to cast a ballet to vote. The Bush adminstration fought for the right of Irac's people to vote in a free election. So why now should WE be locked out. Karen terry

Mitt Romney refuses to provide full tax disclosure of his taxes and financial holdings to the American people.

The Citizens United decision has opened the floodgates for corporations and non-profit groups to pour undocumented and unlimited amounts of money into campaign advertising. This ruling has all but silenced the voice of citizens in favor of non-human entities.

Next year, The U.S. Senate will once again be nearly evenly split between Democrats and Republicans. But without 60 votes, neither party can pass any meaningful legislation. To help break the gridlock in Washington, the leaders of both parties in the U.S. Senate should commit themselves NOW to adopting new Senate rules in January 2013 to end the filibuster, no matter which party gains control of the Senate in the November elections.
