America's endless wars are making us less safe, causing tremendous loss of life, and fueling historic instability. Commit to end these wars in your first 100 days in office by bringing all US troops home from Iraq, Syria, and Afghanistan.

MSNBC should suspend Chris Matthews, host of Hardball, because of his constant shilling for Hillary Clinton. In every episode of Hardball, in every "exclusive" interview with Clinton, he gives her endless time to make her case, repeats her talking points, gives her softball questions, denigrates Bernie Sanders and his people powered movement and reinforces the narrative that she will be the Democratic nominee. Matthews should be removed from the air for the duration of the campaign or he should be required to give Bernie equal time.

Petition to all state legislatures: Please join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, and end the Electoral College's power to overrule the popular vote.

We fight for Women's Rights and for LGBTQ Rights. But why do we leave out Children's Rights? Why is the United States the only nation in the entire world that is not willing to ratify the most successful human rights treaty in history? US children deserve rights like all children in the world! Twitter @UN_CRC

Dear Mr. President, We, the undersigned, formally request you choose to not meet Kate Middleton and William Windsor (aka "Prince" William) on their visit to the US December 7-9, 2014.

We, the undersigned, demand that charges be filed against the Cleveland police officers responsible for the death of 12-year-old Tamir Rice. Tamir was innocently minding his own business in a public picnic shelter at Cudell Recreation Center on November 22, 2014, when a police squad car driven by Officer Frank Gramback suddenly descended upon him and Officer Timothy Loehmann fired two shots in 0.792 seconds, hitting Tamir in the stomach. Unless police are held accountable for such unwarranted use of deadly force, there is no question that tragedies like this will continue to happen.

Please join me and thank the President for keeping his promise by letting hardworking, taxpaying undocumented immigrants temporarily stay in the country they sustain with their sweat and sacrifice.

George Will has described government as a "geyser of entitlements." We the People demand that Senators and Representatives act on at least one of the following before any cuts to or changes of Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, or SNAP can occur: 1. Corporate Entitlements: Companies like Abbott Laboratories, Boeing Co., Motorola Solutions and Motorola Mobility, GE and Boeing don't pay federal taxes: Congress must establish a corporate tax rate commensurate with individual tax rates and must enforce the collection of those taxes from all corporations. Corporations that do not pay, must be fined in the amount that would be their tax burden. 2. Corporate Entitlements, part 2: Corporations seem to support the single payer health care system as evidenced by their continued outsourcing of jobs to countries that have a single payer system. Similar to the provision in the Affordable Care Act, for every outsourced job, the corporation will be fined $3000. 3. Congressional Entitlements: Roughly 62% of bankruptcies occur because of medical bills and the vast majority of people who eventually declare bankruptcy had healthcare coverage. Congress, which enjoys the gold standard of healthcare benefits, can neither understand nor act on concerns appropriately. No Senator or Representative will enjoy health care benefits better than the average American. This should be easy to establish by simply ending their current coverage and allowing them to participate in programs just like ours for which they pay the same rates we do. 4. Congressional Entitlements, part 2: Retired Senators and Representatives should receive social security -- rather than pensions -- equal to the average American's benefit. It may seem unfair to change their retirement benefits after they have been promised those pensions for so much of their careers, but as they have been so clearly stating, these are dire times and everyone must accept the changes that are necessary. 5. Congressional entitlements, part 3. Senators and Representatives should be paid salaries equal to the average Americans but no more. They will understand how best to govern when they are actually governing for themselves, too. 6. Speculation Entitlements: Speculators don't need lower tax rates as encouragement to speculate with other people's money. They must be taxed at the rate they are earning no matter how that money is earned.

Much has been done in the state houses of some very critical states to affect their voting outcomes in our November presidential election. I see very little making the news about these new voting laws from state to state on the part of national media, nor remedial review by the U. S. Justice Department to slap down the obvious impediments to registered voters in these states having access to their polls to cast their vote for President of the United States this year. Florida has purged their rolls, much like what happened during the George Bush election, to ensure the desired outcome. And we all know what happened in the 2002 election in Florida. Despite being ordered to cease and desist this activity by U. S. Attorney Eric Holder, the governor of Florida continued his activity in purging the voter rolls with impunity! Florida and Pennsylvania are very important states! Likewise, Ohio has decided that the three days prior to the election, when black churchgoers usually conduct what they refer to as "Souls to the Polls" and vote early after church on the Sunday before the Tuesday elections, in heavily black demographics early voting will not be permitted. However, in dominantly white Republican voting blocks, early voting will go on as usual. There are many other states that are prohibiting the photo ID of college students who live out of state are being forbidden to vote this fall. Many elderly people who cannot even obtain their birth certificates (required to obtain a photo ID from their Division of Motor Vehicles) are just simply out of luck ~~ they cannot vote this fall, even though many have voted in every election in their adult lives! I hope that if you agree that our United States Attorney, Eric Holder, should verify that these states' voting changes are in compliance with the 1995 Voting Rights laws, and are indeed discriminatory in the extreme on the face of it, will ask the High Court of the United States to review these states activities on a state-by-state basis to ensure that willing registered voters are permitted to exercise their RIGHT TO VOTE in November. If you agree, please add your signature to this petition and forward it to your friends so that it can be timely presented to Attorney Holder to express our hope that these states not be permitted to bar voters from the polls!
