Mr. President,
Please shut down your "petitions.whitehouse.gov" web site that is littering the internet and provides no real value with an apology to the people of the United States and the World.
This is not participation in the political process. This is a way for you to cherry pick a few popular issues and make a statement to get some quick press coverage.
Focus on reforming the policies of a post 9/11 government, the platform you ran on...instead of wasting everybody's time with this nonsense "petitions" web site.
You can dull the minds of the masses with these cheap tricks, but you can't fool the the critical thinkers.
