Amend the Constitution to Bar Convicted Felons from Presidential Office


Amend the Constitution to Bar Convicted Felons from Presidential Office
The Issue
I have fought for over 60 years for Justice & Equality in this country! I have marched with Dr. M.Luther King & Congressman John Lewis in the 1963 March on Washington, where Dr. King gave his famous, "I Have A Dream Speech"! I was losing my hope in the Justice system until the Guilty verdict came thru for former President Trump tonight! It is my hope that anyone convicted of a felony should never be able to hold office of President in the USA!
The integrity of our highest office must be preserved. Allowing a convicted felon to run for President undermines public trust and tarnishes our democratic values. According to a poll by ABC News/Washington Post, 56% of Americans believe that individuals convicted of serious crimes should not be eligible for presidential candidacy (ABC News/Washington Post Poll).
Join me in calling for an amendment to our Constitution that will prevent any person convicted of a felony from running for or holding the office of President. Sign this petition today and help safeguard our democracy!
