• Justice For Jasmine
    Jasmine Thar, a 16 yr old African American was shot and killed December 23, 2011 while in her Godmother's yard in Chadbourn, NC preparing for a routine shopping trip to Myrtle Beach. Jasmine was doing what most teens do, texting, when the shot rang out. Two others were injured by the same bullet. A 23 yr old Caucasian male who was in the house across the street where the shot came from claims it was an accident. He was taken in for questioning but was not charged.The families of this tragedy lives will forever be changed.

  • Demolish School to Prison Pipeline in Seattle Schools: Establish Restorative Justice
    African-American students in our public schools get disciplined three times more than white students, even though white students outnumber them two to one. These disciplinary actions easily escalate into unnecessary suspensions, the best predictor of dropping out of school. Students who drop out are 3.5 times more likely of getting arrested. This systematic pushing out of students from schools onto the streets disproportionately affects poor students, students of color and LGBT youth. The Seattle School Board can decide to prohibit suspensions and expulsion as a disciplinary action in schools, and use a restorative justice model to deal with conflict. When the Denver public school system began using this practice, they saw a 80% drop in school conflicts.

  • Eliminate Capitalistic-Military Regime
    The United States has become a Capitalistic-Military controlled nation because the founding documents, Bill of Rights, Constitution (USC) and Declaration of Independence (DI), have been ignored by We The People. With the DI being the document which led to the revolt against England and United the colonies it also became the foundation for the constitution. With the DI being written to prohibit injustice, such as we have in the United States now, it's as much a law as is the constitution as the foundation, or cause, for it. With that being the facts, the DI is to be used as the plum line by which the Constitution's interpretations are measured. When the Supreme Court declared citizenship to corporations as a person, with no certificates revealing mothers, fathers, dates, times, delivering doctors or places of birth, it set the foundation for the Capitalistic-Military Regime we have in place to be implemented by the Patriot Act. Their saying money is "free speach" bought the leadership, Legislators, Administrator and Judiciary. The administration branch controls the military HOMELAND SECURITY, Militarizing Police Forces and the Patriot Act as the means to control The People. This was allowed because we the people, as provided by the Constitution's Preamble and Amendment 10, do not fulfill our requirement to overthrow the government, demanded by the USC and DI. Although not the intent when written, Amendment 12, with the surgery Amendment 24 amended into it, provides us the means of doing it from the poles. It reads with the surgery as the following. ""The Electors {amended to the people by Amendment 24 after the electors present them to the people who interview them ensuring they will work to acheive the Preamble and protect the constitution WITH THEIR LIVES before the primary} shall meet in their respective states, and vote by ballot for President and Vice-President, one of whom, at least, shall not be an inhabitant of the same state with themselves; they shall name in their ballots the person voted for as President, and in distinct ballots the person voted for as Vice-President, and they shall make distinct lists of all persons voted for as President, and of all persons voted for as Vice-President and of the number of votes for each {This is the primary election, citizens of each state selects presidents and vices to vote on for their candidate to the national election in November eliminating 1) candidates naming themelves, 2) parties, 3) campaigning, 4) contributions and, 5) conventions}, which lists they shall sign and certify, and transmit sealed to the seat of the government of the United States, directed to the President of the Senate; The President of the Senate shall, in the presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the certificates and the votes shall then be counted; {and notify each household in the nation of all candidates, including if they are willing to work toward achieving the Constitution's Preamble and protect it WITH THEIR LIVES} {Without one state or DC (per Amendments 14 & 24) electing the incumbent president and vice neither will be in November's election; should all states and DC elect them there will not be a November Presidential election. The following takes place after the November election and prior to the congressional districts elect their electors, Amendment 24, who began their search for the next election year's candidates.} The person having the greatest Number of votes for President, shall be the President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of Electors appointed; and if no person have such majority, then from the persons having the highest numbers not exceeding three on the list of those voted for as President, the House of Representatives shall choose immediately, by ballot, the President. But in choosing the President, the votes shall be taken by states, the representation from each state having one vote; a quorum for this purpose shall consist of a member or members from two-thirds of the states, and a majority of all the states shall be necessary to a choice. And if the House of Representatives shall not choose a President whenever the right of choice shall devolve upon them, before the fourth day of March next following, then the Vice-President shall act as President, as in the case of the death or other constitutional disability of the President. The person having the greatest number of votes as Vice-President, shall be the Vice-President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of Electors appointed, and if no person have a majority, then from the two highest numbers on the list, the Senate shall choose the Vice-President; a quorum for the purpose shall consist of two-thirds of the whole number of Senators, and a majority of the whole number shall be necessary to a choice. But no person constitutionally ineligible to the office of President shall be eligible to that of Vice-President of the United States."" What that does is to require every state and DC to elect a presidential and a vice candidate for the national election, eliminating the parties. It causes the direct vote of the people to elect the presidents and vice. Yet, it will eliminate all of the money needed for campaigning and conventions. To see how a democracy is supposed to work see http://prop1.org/protest/elijah/democracy.htm By adding my signature to this petition I agree that ... 1) There's not to be parties with the presidents and vices elected on separate ballots for their elections to be constitutional. 2) The no parties aspect makes every congressman who are in a party, including independent party, be unconstitutional. 3) Those discrepancies alone give We The People the right to demand their resignation and, since the vice president is also unconstitutionally elected, per Amendment 25, upon resigning the president will choose someone to "execute the laws faithfully" (Art. 2, Sec. 3) to name as his ...
