It ain't gonna happen because you can't gather the 1 million plus signatures required within the 90 day time frame. You would need over 10 K signatures each and every day for the next 90 days.
I didn't expect that from you. It's obviously going to be a tough battle, but I think it's more about the message and to hopefully get some of the people in this sad state thinking. As soon as I get a reply back about the petition, I plan to spread it around my work and neighborhood and solicit signatures from anyone I can, anywhere that I can to help out. If I have to go hang out at the grocery store or stand on the corner with a sandwich board, I'll do that too.
I think the biggest problem is that I'm not sure the guy had all his ducks in a row to deal with this and time is of the essence.
