If your intention is to replace the government, civil disobedience or protesting isn't going to do anything.

If you want to fix the problems we have on the other hand, politics is the answer.

Look folks.

We have an opportunity.

We have publicity.

Therefore if we endorse a candidates they won't have to spend tons of money campaigning.

Agreed. This has always been the way to go about it with today's system. It worked for Martin Luther King because people were so impressed with their tenacity to get what was obviously deserved in the first place. Now all people see is whining.

Politics is stacked against the 99%. We might perhaps be able to get one or two voices into Congress, a few state and municipal legislators but the system as a whole is rigged.
