Here is the text for the Petition...

We, the undersigned do hereby serve notice to all elected and appointed officials, Federal, State, or Local that We, The People, of the United States do hereby affirm the following:

That the Constitution of the United States MUST be held inviolate; and that the rights enumerated therein are sacred and we, The People, will fight to preserve them.

That All Men Are Created Equal, and each regardless of race, creed, or religion have the rights of Life, Liberty, and The Pursuit of Happiness.

That men do NOT have rights to free education, free medical care, free housing, free food, or any other substance or service that requires the labor of other free men to provide. Man must work for his subsistence by producing goods or services, freely marketed.

That Economic Freedom is just as essential as political freedom to free men and women. Therefore, we affirm that The United States of America is a free market country, dependent upon the principles of open and honest commerce, untrammeled by the oppressive, leaden hand of government. We further affirm that rights of Private Property must never be abridged. Man must always have the first claim on the fruits of his labor and that his substance must never be appropriated without the input of his representatives and extreme diligence taken to ensure it is only used for worthy and limited purposes. Governments were established to protect private property, not to abscond with it.

And... That We, The People, do vow and solemnly promise to fight to preserve our rights and property, even against our own established Government, if needs be.

We therefore call on all those chosen to represent us or those appointed to work for us, to join with us to re-establish these principles, or to pay the consequences.

Here is a link to the Bob Basso's YouTUBE speech . The speech you want to view is: The Second American Revolution - We The People http://www.youtube.com/results?search_type=&search_query=bob+basso&aq=f
It's amazing! If you haven't seen or heard it, make a point of doing so. You'll be glad you did. One of his earlier speeches has received 2,753,585 views.
Graphics used for some of the slogans. They come from Istockphoto.com. They offer millions of graphics and illustrations on their website. They aren't free but they are affordable. The ones I used only cost me a buck each. A nice graphic can really spice up your sign and add the impact you're looking for. For my presentation, I bought the small $1.00 versions. They look fine on 8 1/2 x 11 paper but on a large poster they would simply be too grainy. For a poster sized image, you'd have to buy a larger version. The costs typically run 1, 3, 6, and 12 dollars. The larger the graphic the more money it is. Viewing Istock's graphics online is free. You only have to pay for them if you decide to use them. http://www.istockphoto.com/
