There is a petition on The White House website in support of metric.

From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Parker Willey Jr. Sent: Thursday, September 20, 2012 8:51 PM To: U.S. Metric Association Subject: [USMA:51916] Which candidate? Best for metric? I was wondering if there is an opinion on which candidate would be more friendly toward moving the U.S. to the SI metric system. Barack Obama has endorsed some scientific principles but they seemed to be more directed to issues involving gays and Roe vs Wade issues. None of his "scientific" ideas even mentioned how we measure things in the United States. Mit Romney spent 2.5 years in France as a Mormon missionary. He should have come be familiar with using the metric system while there. Any comments? ...Parker Willey Jr. San Jose, CA
