Home Owner Bail Out / CompensateTaxpaying residents who are in process or lost their homes due to forclosure. Many of us applied for programs to save our homes and lost them anyway, because we were deemed not eligible for home mortgage bailout, loss mitigation, hardship bailout, deed in leiu of forclosure and short sale programs.6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Thomas Reinke

Legalize MarijuanaLegalizing marijuana, like dropping alcohol prohibition, will free law enforcement for other functions. Legalizing will create jobs, and tax income, and drop the number of families ruined by possession, and property confiscation. Legalization will reduce prison populations. Each individual not incarcerated will save over $40,000 per year which could go into educational programs. Use and sale of marijuana should not be a crime, there are no victims..37 of 100 SignaturesCreated by William Olkowski, PHD

Student Loan SettlementWhile the earlier petition regarding student loans was a good start, it actually ends up costing us more in the long run. I have an idea that will infuse money into the goverment and ease the burden of those with current loans.10 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Linda Livingston

Give Disabled Veterans Commissary PrivelagesThe men and women who have risked their lives, bled, and suffered injuries in defense of this nation should be given the opportunity to avail themselves of the minor discounts already available to all active duty and retired military personnel. The dependents of those heroes who have been disabled or who have given "the last full measure of devotion" should likewise be accorded access to these same privileges. "Any nation that does not honor it's heroes, will not long endure." ~President Abraham Lincoln5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by JT Kostman, PhD

Tell Mainsteam Media to stop boycotting Ron PaulAs we've seen the past few months, Fox News, CNN, and other news sources have done their best to alienate Ron Paul. Because he does not fit the status quo, all of these mainstream news sources have done their best to make him sound like a quack. He is treated unfairly compared to every other candidate in the GOP race. We need to let these people know that we will boycott them if they continue to show prejudice against him.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Adam Vamosi

Get Private Money Out Of Public ElectionsElected officials should represent voters, not dollars. We need 100% publicly financed campaigns, with strict time limits. Under current laws, money has all the power: corporations and the super-rich rule the rest of us. There's no such thing as free speech in politics today: every single word has been bought and paid for by the special interests who pay the salaries of consultants who craft the messages. Politicians are not picked because they have ideas or integrity, but because they can "stay on message." We won't solve our larger problems until we fix this one.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Christian Doering

Term Limits for all Members of the House and SenateCareer politicians are the cause of gridlock in Washington D.C. Career politicians spend more time fighting for political advantage and re-election than doing whats right for the country. In a time when this nation has been dragged into a recession reminiscent o1920's era depression career politicians stuck on old ideas and ideology have become roadblocks to doing what's right for America. We're calling for term limits on all members of Congress to bring new, bold ideas to the country and to remove the roadblock of career politicians.6 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Waymon Tucker
