Federal law enforcement has been raiding medical marijuana producers and dispensers, even in states where it is legal. This only hurts the sick, and forces them back into the black market to get their medicine. Its time for this abhorrent misuse of federal resources to stop, so that states who've chosen to permit the sick to use medical marijuana can administer their programs unhindered.

Let's elect congressmen/women for six years, a senator for twelve and a president for eight. They cannot stand for reelection. In any election year they can be removed from office with a 75% vote. Big money would have less influence, elected officials more lattitude to learn and shift their perspective and vote with accumulated wisdom (we hope).

Tami Fitzgerald is chairwoman of the campaign to put Amendment One into the constitution, which would prohibit North Carolina from viewing same-sex relationships as marriages or civil unions. Her opposition to acknowledging same-sex couples is grounded in the Bible. However, the Bible is much clearer about banning women from teaching or holding authority over men than it is about same-sex relationships. To be consistent in her interpretation of the Bible, we demand that Ms. Fitzgerald immediately resigns and discontinues all leadership and teaching roles.

Why should these organizations enjoy tax exempt status? In order for there to be a clear separation of church and state, they too should pay for the network of publicly funded infrastructure, they too rely on.

increase pay to the 99% to increase money in hands of consumers. Our economy has thrived when the 99% had better incomes, even with higher taxes.

The federal student loan program charges interest. The low interest rate is already higher than what the government pays to borrow. The Republicans in Congress think that extending a popular program that earns a profit for the government needs to be "paid for" through healthcare cuts. Tell President Obama to veto any attempt to take money away from Americans' health or to hold students hostage.

Home owners should be allowed to reserve a parking space in front of their homes.

Politicians and PACs should have a truth in speaking and advertising law. If they make statements which are untrue they should be subject to fines and publicly correct their mistakes. This should be applied to all ads and public speeches.

This applies to elected officials. I believe that before any congressman or senator votes on a bill, they much sign a pledge that states that they have read the bill and they understand what the bill will do. It would cut down on the size of bills being introduced.

Its a prime example of big business in government here in texas. it is another tool used by big business to force people to buy insurance or else. they say obama's healthcare plan would require a person to buy health insurance, this system will ensure you do the same with auto insurance which is way more expensive for most. I think its unconstitutional and the insurace companies here in texas are padding the pockets of the officials for implementation of the program, here is what is quoted on the site" TexasSure Vehicle Insurance Verification Can't Afford Auto Insurance? We can all think of other things we’d rather do with our hard-earned money than pay insurance premiums. But if you’re going to drive, you owe it to yourself and everyone else on the road to be insured. If you’re in an accident (and statistics point to a one in three chance you will be), having that insurance card will make your life a whole lot easier. By the way, did we mention that the law requires you to carry insurance? It’s true, but you only have to carry liability insurance, which pays to repair or replace the other driver’s car and/or pay for their medical expenses in the event of an accident. (Liability insurance does not pay to repair or replace your car or pay for your injuries.) The minimum liability insurance required in Texas covers $30,000 for each injured person (up to a total of $60,000 per accident) and $25,000 for property damage. So, how do you get insurance? The following links will take you to documents that can help you on that quest: " this is crazy, if we are required to by auto insurance why not healthcare?

Left or Right, everyone deserves Medicare. Private insurance companies have made life and death a gambling game in which you have to be lucky enough to get the disease they've covered, if you can afford to be covered at all. By reducing the eligible age of Medicare by one year each year, by 2076 every American would have affordable health care security. The private health insurance companies would still be able to service the supplemental market, which would have grown much larger. As Medicare adds progressively younger and healthier members, it would also become healthier.
