  • Susan G. Komen for the Cure's CEO and Board Must Resign
    Susan G. Komen for the Cure CEO & Founder, Nancy Brinker, and the rest of the nine-member board, have put the entire organization at risk through blantant partisanship, deceit, departure from the organization's mission, and abuse of the public's trust. The 120 affiliate chapters, the millions of men and women who have run in their races, and the people the organization serves deserve leadership they can trust to put politics aside and put healthcare first. The organization can not maintain its leadership position so long as Brinker and the current board remain in place. It is time for them all to resign and time for the public to demand it.

  • Tax income from all sources at the same rates
    Currently, capital gains and dividens are taxed at lower rates than wages. There is no reason for this. The only thing special about capital gains is that rich people have them: that's why they're always pushing for lower tax rates on them. The same tax rates should apply to all income, regardless of source.

  • Line item veto for the president
    There is way too much "pork" attached to bills for someone's special interest and we the people end up footing the cost. The president is the closest to the people and therefore the most responsive (polls, headlines, media, internet) which would make the voice of "WE THE PEOPLE" more heard. It would stop most of the illegitimate "add ons" which cause a great deal of the fiscal problems.

  • election ballots
    Choices on the presidential ballot. Normally there is a choice between two candidates - maybe three if there s an independent. There should be a 'none of the above' choice so those who cannot in good conscience vote for any of the listed candidates could still vote and have their vote counted.

  • Nintendo Should Re-Release The Original Pokemon Games as Downloadables for the 3DS/DSi
    Recently it has come to the attention of Pokemon fans that the original 6 games (Red Version, Blue Version, Yellow Version, Gold Version, Silver Version and Crystal Version) have a certain battery life built into them. That battery life lasts around 12-15 and most batteries will expire this year, preventing anyone from playing the original cartridges properly. While these cartridges may be lost forever, the games can still be preserved. This petition is to raise awareness to Nintendo and Game Freak about the demand for a re-release of the original 6 Pokemon games in their original format. This re-release would not be on a cartridge but would be downloadable content from the DSi/3DS e-shop, where anyone could purchase the games and download them. This would not only preserve the games, but the memories that go along with them. The re-release of these games would benefit not only Pokemon fans who wish to revisit the original series (and newcomers who want to experience it for the first time) but would also benefit Nintendo and Game Freak for the sales of these games would fly through the roof. Please sign to show Nintendo and Game Freak what we want!

  • David Tennant to Carry the Olympic Torch 2012
    To the Olympics 2012 committee, We wish for you to consider David Tennant as the official Lighter of the Olympic Flame. David portrays the Tenth Doctor on Doctor Who, a programme which has been part of our national consciousness for almost half a century and of which it can be said, captures the heart of being British more than an other piece of popular culture on television today. David, as the Doctor, was seen lighting the Flame in an episode called Fear Her which featured the 2012 Olympics. We feel it would be entirely appropriate for him to be given this honour for real.

  • No bonuses for selling public corporation assets
    Allowing corporate officials to get bonuses for selling off the company is not much different than allowing cashiers to pocket cash. Their job is to guide the company, I think we have been missing that point since the 80's and the mission is developing into 'how can I personally enrich myself?". Since the top executives and boards seem often to be entertwined and self-serving we need a law to pervent this to protect this country's industry, our workers and our future.

  • Tell Jack In The Box to stop Homophobic Ads and Practices!
    Jack In The Box, who has the lowest rating possible with the Human Rights Campaign, currently is showing an ad on television showing a man marrying a piece of bacon. The ad clearly begins with the homophobic concept of a man gently telling his mother that the object of his love is not a woman, then proceeds to show him wanting to marry bacon. This plays directly into the hands of homophobic fears that if you allow same sex couples to marry, then next will come wanting to marry your pet, or even wanting to marry bacon. This fear-mongering advertising should end. Also, Jack In The Box should strive to add more diversity training and protections within their institution to raise their Human Rights Campaign score and further correctly align with modern human rights.
