• Finish the second class citizens (legal residents)
    There is a lot of residents in the US that are affect for the politics of the Republican party and they can not pay back on them. Most of them are older than 18 years old, so if they are in their country can vote, but because they are out of their country they can not vote, in this way their voice is not expressed. I think some of them will believe that if they get the US citizenship they are being traitors to their countries, so relief them from this feeling and allow the US LEGAL RESIDENTS right to vote, not to become elected but to vote.

  • President Obama talks directly to the people, monthly
    Obama nees to get his message out by talking directly from the Oval Office to the nation! People are shying away from voting for him because THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT HE HAS ACCOMPLISHED. He needs speak to the nation regularly and inform them about what he's done.

  • Mitt Romney, show us your tax returns like you showed John McCain
    When Mitt Romney was vetted by John McCain he showed tax returns dating back approximately 25 years and now that he's running for President he should show the American Voters the same. People should care about this petition because we need openess in our elections and we need to know how all candidates made their money and where their money is going to.

  • Demand Gil Kerlikowski's resignation from ONDCP.
    Gil Kerlikowski, head of the White House Office for National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP), has continued to neglect and ignore rational, scientific data in regards to drug policy. He has additionally claimed successes where none exist and proliferates disinformation which inhibits rational progress for the sake of maintaining the ignorance of the status quo. Gil Kerlikowski needs replacement.

  • The need for higher taxes
    The Republicans have never explained why the economy almost exploded when President Clinton raised taxes about 17 years ago. Like any business, a not-for profit business needs income as well as expenses. President Bush II cut taxes twice after declaring war on terror. He didn't get so much as a bump in the economy. It sagged right in to President Obama's term. The importance of income cannot be disregarded. Never before George Bush II did we go to war without a tax increase to pay for it. So today, we have a huge deficit made up primarily by the costs of war, a decade or more of it. Of course, the Republicans are still trying to blame it on the President.

  • Irving Police Department
    With the arrest of Patrica we will be one step closer to finding and arresting Yaser Said, and with both parents behind bars Justice will finally be served for Amina and Sarah. New Years Day January 1 2008 in Irving Texas Amina and Sarah Said were murdered by their father Yaser Abdul Said an Egyptian immigrant for dating non muslin boys, Amina age 18 shot two times and Sarah age 17 nine times. The girls were brilliant young ladies dreaming of nothing more than to live their lives’ as Americans and become doctors. Their American mother Patricia Said Owens converted to Islam shortly after marrying their father in 1987 and has failed to protect these beautiful girls from the abuse they endured all their lives. The week before Christmas Yaser Said found out about his daughters American boyfriends and like many times before pulled a gun on Amina and Sarah and threatened to kill them for not following his rules. The girls managed to run out of the home to their mothers job where the girls also had part time jobs. The manager gave Patricia days off from work to take the girls to a safe place and call police, even taking up a donation among the store employee’s to help Patricia get her daughters protection, but instead Patricia took Amina and Sarah back home where their father was waiting. Their father was more furious with his daughters as the days followed. The girls knew they had to run away or be killed. Deciding to run away with their boyfriends they confined in their mother their plans to escape their father. Patricia tells her daughters she had always wanted to leave their father and asked to run with them. The girls and the boyfriends agreed to allowPatricia to go along. On Dec. 25 2007 After Yaser had left to go to work that night they all headed for Kansas. Arriving at Patricia’s aunt’s home on Wednesday the 26th. of December, Patricia tells her aunt the girls were going to run away with their boyfriends and she couldn’t let that happen, then Amina spoke up and said; "my mom said she always wanted to leave my dad so we let her come with us." During a conversation Patricia stated if she took her daughters back to Texas Yaser would defiantly kill them. By the end of the day it was decided it would be best to go to Tulsa Oklahoma a bigger city close to a collage for Amina. The next day Patricia bought a new cell phone and now had a number Yaser didn’t have, they rented an apartment and bought some furniture and the girls felt a little safer. Unfortunately unknown to Amina and Sarah and the boyfriends, their mother was talking to their father and planning on returning back to her husband. Patricia knew there was no way her daughters would return to Texas to be killed by their father so she lied to Amina and Sarah telling them she wanted to put flowers on their grandmother grave and they would spent New Year’s Day at their Aunt Connie’s, the mother’s sister. Arriving back in Texas New Years eve the girls learned their mother was going back home to Yaser their father. Amina very upset and angry and refused to go to her father’s house knowing he will kill her and went to her boyfriend’s parents and calls her Aunt Connie, "did you know my mom went back to my dad" she asked, crying and upset she tells her aunt about her mother lying to her to get her back to Texas. The next morning New Year’s started with a text asking Amina to call her mom. Amina called and her mother, who asked her to come home, again Amina refused. Patricia made call after call to Amina begging her to come home throughout the day saying her father had forgiven her and they were all going to go out to eat but Amina again refused. That evening Patricia drives to Amina boyfriends parents to talk to her daughter. Amina crying and still refusing to go with her mother begs her boyfriend to take her back to Tulsa. Patricia not getting anywhere with Amina takes her by the arm telling her to hurry up they were running out of time. Amina gives in and goes home with her mother and within a couple hours Amina and Sarah were shot to death by their father. The next day the girl’s brother Islam said Amina and Sarah got what they deserve because they knew the rules. The mother’s action in the days leading up to the murders proves the mother returned her daughters back to their father so the murders could take place as planned. Irving Police Department refuses to bring charges against Amina and Sarah's mother for her role in the murders. Clearly the proof is in the pudding and this is a double Honor Killing and the F.B.I. agreed at one point. The mother must be charged with conspiracy to murder her daughters. Sarah and Amina Said deserve JUSTICE. Please join in the fight for justice for Amina and Sarah Said by calling on the Irving Police to arrest Patricia Said Owens

  • End daylight savings time
    Daylight savings time harms people. It causes accidents, and does no good anymore. It is disruptive to peoples sleep, the work commute verses the school commute. Pick a time and stick to it.
