6. A number of things.

I always start with the rights (and responsibilities) outlined in Amendment 1. Keep in contact with your elected representatives. This should include republican officials. Attend anti-felon and anti-war rallies when possible. Stay informed, which has to involve finding alternatives to the corporate news. Encourage unregistered family, friends, co-workers, neighbors, etc to register and to vote.

"Politics 101" comes into play. There are three groups: those who always support you, those who always oppose you, and the undecided. It is good to coordinate efforts with the first group. Ignore the second group. And concentrate on group three.
