News : White House Petition to Make R. Kelly’s “Ignition (Remix)” the National Anthem Goes Viral

This is probably not what the White House had in mind when they made petitions searchable on WhiteHouse.gov.

S.R. of Wilmington, North Carolina has created a petition to make R. Kelly’s “Ignition (Remix)” the new National Anthem of the United States.

The petition, posted on WhiteHouse.gov, reads as follows:

As of October 3, 2011, petitions that met the listed criteria became searchable on WhiteHouse.gov once — and if — they reach 150 signatures within 30 days. If that was accomplished, for President Obama to actively consider a petition, it must have reached 25,000 signatures within the remainder of the same 30-day period.

The White House has always reserved the right to change the time limit and number of signatures required, and did exactly that in the wake of a petition that urged the U.S. government to begin construction on a Death Star to be completed by 2016.

Now a petition must reach 100,000 signatures within 30 days.
