@marathon Why a petition, what would that accomplish? Just nominate him any history or philosophy or social studies professor can, there is literally no need for a petition, just ask any professor with any school to do it, I'm sure there are plenty, problem solved. A petition is a waste and sounds like a pretty round about way to do a simple thing.
as for him winning, petitions dont effect that, the nomination committee does and it isnt (and shouldnt be) based on popular opinion.
@marathon Also a quick search seems to suggested he has been nominated every (or at least almost every) year since 2011, pretty good chance this petition is moot as he has probably already been nominated.
@freemo @marathon That petition should be ignored anyway, as it's on a #CloudFlare site. Every petitioner has to trust a privacy abuser with their personal data, & the fact that actionnetwork.org is also an exclusive site undermines #democracy.
@freemo @marathon It's convenient & time-saving to know this. Anytime a #petition is on #ActionNetwork.org, #ChangeDotOrg, or #MoveOn.org, it's easy to ignore it before even reading what it's about. Whatever it is, it's not worth your drop-in-the-ocean sig to risk your privacy & help someone undermine what should be a democratic process. If a petition is on #openpetition.org then it's worth a look.
