The US system is not petition based.

Call the WH and your representatives

They pay much more attention to things that require effort.

Plus, they’re old and that internet thing just doesn’t register.
I don't belive they will respond to this. If you want to be heard, call the wh or tweet Trump.

Although if you'd like too, go ahead and sign the petition. It won't hurt any.

Although if it makes you feel like you did something go ahead and sign the petition. It won't hurt any.
And keep doing it as many times as you can

In case people need this CASAA statement:

We need to
Light Up The Switchboard
At The Whitehouse!
202-456-1414

On your call:

  • The operator will likely ask where they can direct your call
  • Simply tell them that flavored vapor products saved your life; and,
  • tell them “We vape, We Vote.
Be polite, be brief, and say thank you.

Our school system sucks!

Bill of Rights.
In the United States the right to petition is guaranteed by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution, which specifically prohibits Congress from abridging "the right of the people...to petition the Government for a redress of grievances".

There’s a difference between stopping something and ignoring something.

Feel free to think that site has any bearing on what the kindly government will do though.

It also doesn’t apply to state and local governments. Much more likely to have them start banning vaping.

Well, I guess its my job.

Stop Donald Trump from signing the federal flavor ban of e-cig products. | We the People: Your Voice in Our Government

Just to consider:
What makes you think the politicians are going to listen to you when all the lines are busy and on hold? They dont listen even when they are stumping, do they?

Whereas a PETITION is tangle proof, written and preserved on the internet of public outcry.

Just saying.

Do you have an instance where a petition was honored? Meaning, they did what the petition asked.

So when you call the White House, or your representatives, you now have a collective database that can be referenced displaying that you are not a single individual opposing the flavour ban, but part of a group of many. Perhaps the US system is not petition based – being Canadian I would not know. But it is still a tool that can have value.

Won't change my vote, single issue voting is for fools.
"Re-elect No One" = you're not voting for Trump. Same outcome as zoiDman predicts in your case.

So if you actually go by your tag line, that's your single issue. It also happens to be my single issue as well and will continue to be until there is someone I agree with (a true Libertarian) in any particular office.
