abolishthefederalreserve.com — Idea was said to be "outside the scope of the Ideas for Change in America project, which is focused on identifying solutions that we believe can, through a grassroots lobbying effort, receive serious consideration from the Obama administration and/or Congress."They obviously don't want REAL CHANGE.

Quoting myself directly above:"Change.org is not run by Obama, so it is true we cannot blame Obama directly"

Please check out the latest update (bottom of post) for 5 new Ideas concerning our monetary system. One of them is in 7th place right now, we could easily get it to #1: <a class="user" href="http://www.abolishthefederalreserve.com/?p=437">http://www.abolishthefederalreserve.com/?p=437</a>

Also, Jack Herer says that references he posted about saving the world from our energy crisis through the power of industrial hemp, and saving lives by reforming the war on drugs have been removed from change.orgHe also recommended that change.gov is a better avenue for submitting input, and he hasn't seen any censorship there.

sarahlee is right. in fact, the blogger had posted the email they sent informing him of this:""We welcome you to directly petition the Obama Administration about this matter, which you can do at <a class="user" href="http://change.gov/page/s/ofthepeople.">http://change.gov/page/s/ofthepeople.</a> However, this unfortunately lies outside the scope of the Ideas for Change in America project, which is focused on identifying solutions that can, through a grassroots lobbying effort, receive serious consideration from the Obama administration and/or Congress. Regardless of its merits, it is our judgment that this idea will not be seriously considered by the administration or the 111th Congress regardless of the intensity of our lobbying effort, and it is therefore not eligible to enter the second round of the competition."

did you send them emails addressed to "lord obama" and demanding to know why you're being censored?

actually, i watched the creature from jekyll island at someone's behest, and i don't think anyone has been back to respond to my question. you guys claim to be so willing to discuss these things, but if we don't just immediately run in circles screaming with you, it's like we're not worth talking to.i think this is more why your ideas don't get so much traction. there's something to be said for community organizing.
