There are many. Currently, I am supporting Kucinich in his attempt to impeach Bush (it won't be successful, but the longer it goes on the more publicity it will get), I am educating as many people as possible about said malfeasance, I am writing my representatives often, when I get new information... the list goes on and on.

No one listens to Ustwo or the 300 or so economists that say there's no global warming except people who are already living not only in ignorance but are people who still think Iraq had something to do with 9/11. The solutions to global warming are numerous: reduce/reuse/recycle, alternative energy, subsidies for green companies, blah blah blah. I mean that's the easy part.

I don't know of any threads that say "You need to vote for this person".

Learning and teaching are an important part of Politics, but it's not the only thing. It's just an intellectual circle jerk if nothing is ever done.
