hmmmm....that's something I have to mull over quite a bit.Thanks to the information age, everyone can express their views with the touch of a button or three. Nothing requiring much effort, such as actually writing a letter and mailing it.
On one hand, a petition site like "We the People" could be a very hard brutally efficient way of shortcutting the letter writing process.
On the other hand, it lacks credibility.
The former is an aspect I never considered.
The latter may only be because the site is still in it's infancy, so to speak.
I'll have to look back at all the petitions submitted to date and see if there's a clue.
Thankfully, the site has only been up for a litle over a year/I'm retired and have nothing much else going on right now .
@ Nate45 - no offence taken at all - we're cool. I just didn't want the thread to drift into areas that. for right now. are better left alone.
