Everyone loves to contribute. Contribute to something useful

Now I live in America. Hey I know that it's not a mystery that the world has been looking at America in an odd light lately. With the debt sky high, unemployment at a stagnant mid-high rate, and our politicians just trying to figure out how to keep the government open it seems that others are laughing at us. Hey well we live in an indirect democracy to where we elect representatives that do nothing but benefit for themselves and to keep the silly political agenda up to date.

Though I love to be internet savvy and keep up with things day to day that are new and exciting. Recently the White House has launched a new platform of petition for people to be able to create petitions and sign into petition that they agree or disagree with. The way attention gathers on the internet everyone can really use this as a powerful tool in trying to help the agenda of getting shit done.

"Throughout our history, Americans have used petitions as a way to join together around issues they care about.  We the People brings that uniquely American tradition into the 21st century."
I am certainly in love with the idea and I think it's a powerful tool at use though I do believe it is late to the table and doesn't have enough attention by our ridiculous press that is too busy informing me about Sarah Palin's daughter.

So here's my call. Please look further into We the People and come together to set a political agenda for our country to try to follow. Put your opinion out there people. Put on your thinking caps and realize that our representatives has failed us. Here a quick video that does a great job of explaining We the People.
