152 Carol E McIlreeYou have supported a reduction of the death penalty as an Illinois state senator. Please stop it altogether. The death penalty makes killers of us all. It is not necesssary as a safe guard for society if someone truly guilty is incarcerated for life.

154 Rebecca KimmelPlease help us bring reconciliation to this land. The death penalty does not work. As a civilized nation, we should not be in the business of killing our own (and other) citizens. There is no justice and no closure for those left behind, regardless of whether an individual or the state murdered your loved one.
155 GUILLARD AnnyckPlease act rapidly on this moratorium Mr. President !

172 Patsy FieldsMr. Obama, Please place a moratorium on the death penalty. Innocent people are being executed.
173 Louis Fields
174 Giuseppina GattaPlease cancel the death penalty from your country. Civilized countries stopped this practice many centuries ago. Nowadays, only backward countries still have the death penalty, which by the way does not solve the problem, and U.S. is not supposed to be one of those.

177 E. W. BrowneDear Mr. President, You are concerned for the international reputation of the United States. The wide use of the death penalty was hurting the reputation of the U.S. not only during the outgoing administration but for many years before then.

180 Melissa BairdOne innocent person dying is one too many. The inequities in the system make justice an impossibility if you do not have money.. Nobody should die in America for a lack of money for adequate representation.

182 Michele DiGiorgio
183 Elaine AllenThank you for your time and consideration on this weighty matter.

191 W. LittleIt is long past time to put a stop to this death penalty in the U.S. Endless research has shown it has no effect on crime, and way way too many innocent people, most of them of color, have been needlessly killed by various state governments. Please STOP!

194 Walter OczkowskiAnd we are suppose to be a civilized nation. What a shame!!!!!!!!!
195 Jana HaimsohnPlease abolish the barbaric death penalty now.
196 AnonymousToo many innocent people are killed every day from it. Also, since the justice system is not balanced so that everyone gets a free trial, the death penalty should be abolished.

198 james m nordlundAbolish the death penalty now. reality
199 Kaiya KershawPresident-elect Obama, I urge you to help bring an end to this inhumane and archaic punishment. It is ineffective as a deterrent, costly to taxpayers, unfairly administered to economically disadvantaged and ethnic minority persons, an embarrassment to our nation, and most of all, it is just wrong!
200 PATRICIA C. DOYLEFOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY 69 YEARS I HAVE A PRESIDENT WHO "GETSI T"! I SUPPORTED YOU FINANCIALLY AND THROUGH TELEPHONE CALLS. I NOW ASK YOU TO SUPPORT THOSE OF US WHO TRULY BELIEVE THAT THE DEATH PENALTY IN THE UNITED STATES IS WRONG. I KNOW YOU HAVE A LOT ON YOUR PLATE RIGHT NOW. HOWEVER, AS A COUNTRY WE SHOULD NOT BE ALIGNED WITH IRAN, CHINA , AND SIMILAR NATIONS WHO EXECUTE THEIR CITIZENS...NO MATTER WHAT THEY HAVE DONE. WE ARE MUCH MORE THAN THE ONE HORRIFIC DEED WE DID TO LAND US ON DEATH ROW. YOU CAN HELP. THERE IS A GREAT MOVEMENT IN THIS COUNTRY TO ABOLISH THE DEATH PENALTY. I HOPE THAT SOMEONE ON YOUR TEAM TAKES THE TEAM TO READ ABOUT IT AND REALIZE IT IS ONE MORE GOOD ACT THAT YOU CAN ACCOMPLISH AS PRESIDENT OF THIS GREAT COUNTRY! THANK YOU. MY PRAYERS ARE OFFERED EACH DAY FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.
