    Daylight savings time served a purpose at one point in American History. It no longer has any valid reason to be continued. Daylight savings time causes me grief every time it happens. It takes me a couple of weeks to adapt each time it occurs. Please put an end to this senseless, outdated process.

    When people say "random," they often mean for a random reason. BUT THIS IS FOR NO REASON, EITHER! It's completely uncalled for and extremely unnessasary. Coming from a sixth grader.

    It's depressing that at 4:00 pm it's pitch black! It's horrible that two times a year, our bodies take weeks to get used to the changing time! Stop this antiquated time adjustment!

    I have been awake since 0300 with my 17 month old. Please end daylight savings time! The practice is completely unnecessary and out dated!

    Dear Mr. President, Please make this the last time we have to change our clocks. Daylight savings is no longer relevant and is harmful to Americans. There are no known benefits to changing time, so there is no reason to continue this process. In fact I have yet to come across an American who is strongly in favor of daylight savings. If we put it to a vote, I believe all Americans can agree to end this process. By stopping daylight savings in the future, America will take another step towards being great again. Thank you for your consideration in this matter.

    My daughter is up now, at 5:17am. Why on earth does she need to be up at 5:17am? What value does it add to be up an hour earlier in the winter? This is so antiquated and completely unnecessary. Please end it!

    This truly is a retarded practice that benefits no one. Come explain the advantages to my 2 year old twins when their parents mess with their God given sleep patterns twice a year. Please work to repeal this silly law.

    I would rather deal with it being darker in the morning than getting off work and it's pitch black outside. You just want to go home and not shop or go out. This isn't stimulating the economy.

    It's time to stop. This is not a difficult thing to change and the arguments against revoking it would be few.

    Please end daylight savings. I have young children and it is so hard for them every spring to get up an hour earlier than they were used to. For several weeks it's like sending them to school at 7 in the morning and I have read several studies which push for later start times for kids to do well. I would think you would want kids to be getting that extra rest, especially in the springtime during end-of-year testing.
