I don't really want to debate philosophy here, I want practical things to do.
I firmly believe there are only two real powers in the US, and dollars count more than votes.
So, I am watching where I spend my money, and where I invest it.
So far, any advertiser supporting Clear Channel, Fox Broadcasting, or Disney, is on my boycott list. I am supporting advertisers on our only local independent news station for this area.
I try to get independent news from outside US sources, and support those sources.
I do support Americans United for Seperation, but I dont think that is the entire problem, we are very close to a One party democracy, and I think a one party democracy is an oxymoron.
