We're still speaking in generalities, but it seems to me that the government has never answered a formal petition for redress (in our lifetime), because no one has presented it, that is what fascinates me about Bob Schulz. He has done what should have been done a long time ago.

It's been done numerous times. Schulz et al merely dislike the answers.

I disagree Poohbah, there have been individuals, and a few groups of individuals that have had some correspondence about their concerns. Some have done so in a legal framework, in court. They may, or may not have received some answers along the way. Some have won in court, some have lost. But, they did not go with a formal, legal, constitutional petition for redress of grievance. That is a necessarily formal, first amendment process. I don't believe it has ever been done before.

One of the reasons that it has not been done thoroughly before is that it costs a lot of money, and it takes a great deal of tenacity. The We The People Foundation, has that. Perhaps part of the reason is that Bob is a Engineer by background, and he is very thorough. Also, he has engaged many people to assist him in this effort.

It may have something to do with the fact, that Bob is willing to listen to people of all political persuasions. Like I mentioned earlier, this is a problem for ALL Americans.
