"The earth belongs always to the living generation." So spake Mister Jefferson who called for a constitutional convention every 19 years. Is it about time? The fathers knew any living entity, such as our Constitution needs sustenance hence, a convention and the infusion of a reflection to sustain the dignity and sanctity of this revered document.

The gas industry claims there are no proven instances of contamination of wells caused by them. If so, why do they require non-disclosuure agreements to be signed by leaseholders? We petition the state and federal governments to require that copies of these agreements be furnished to them by the industry.

Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution: "Any elected official shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the United States that does not apply equally to themselves and, Any elected official shall make no law that applies to themselves that does not apply equally to the citizens of the United States ."

I propose this petition as a call to action, and to those who lead and would lead us politically and in government, and to those who support and participate as members of a democracy and a diverse democratic community. I propose this noting that our doing better in how we work together is crucial to more effectively addressing the issues and challenges that we all collectively face, and particularly as they present themselves as pressing and divisive. I address this to our leaders and to those who as candidates seek positions of leadership. And I address this to those of our community who seek fair and just representation from our leaders. I petition our political candidates and of all political persuasions and beliefs to remember that you seek office not to represent and lead splinter groups with fixed and even extremist agendas. You seek to represent and to lead everyone. Tone down the personal attacks and set aside the extremist litmus tests as proof of your political purity. They only divide us and harm that which you seek to lead: our communities and our democratic institutions. I petition those who would vote, and those who would seek voce in the political process to remember that we are all in this together, and that differences in opinion and judgment do not automatically reflect moral or ethical failure on the part of those who would disagree with us. Be partisan and support the causes you believe in, but allow for the fact that others of good judgment and character can disagree and that they are sometimes right too. A best resolution to the issues that challenge us can be a compromise that all sides can support and work towards fulfilling.

The U.S. government shouldn't take 24 months to process PTSD disability paperwork when the Army Reserve Soldiers are given only 30 days notice before they have to report for duty.

Dear President Barack Obama, Governor Andrew Cuomo and All Members of the NYS Legislature and The United States Congress The Teacher Evaluation System you have put in place has no place in education in the State of New York. It has nothing to do with evaluating teachers. Students and Teachers are MORE than a standardized test score and this plan is an awful way to evaluate what teachers do in the classroom. With YOUR plan, there's no more room for creativity in our classrooms. The plan you have created should never be put into place. Reconsider, before you plummet NYS Education and education in the United States into a place it should not be.
