If you want to change the system, watch this video about the last time of big protests in this country - the Vietnam War era. A little historical perspective for your general enlightenment. It's called the US vs John Lennon, and is mainly a biography of Lennon, but other activists are in there telling the story.
US vs John Lennon (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=777046699234389996&ei=KLJWSq-3JYWwqQKgvPy_Dw&q=US+vs+John+Lennon&hl=en)
It provides good insight into how politicians view and react to activists who start to become a little too effective. The more things change, the more they stay the same.
If you can, rent the DVD because the extras contain some really good commentary comparing the criminality of the Nixon adminstration to that of the Bush administration, and other good stuff.
