Here's another idea. Everyone shut off their TV until the election, don't read any of the mainstream partisan news sources, and ignore anyone who tells you what a politician or a policy "really means".

Most importantly quit being suckered into "liberal" and "conservative" labels. Actually listen to candidates' explanations for the policies they support and ask yourself 1) is that consistant with the constitution and the current amendments? 2) is that something that is consistant with my personal values?

The government wins by suckering us into fighting with eachother over what the meaning of is is so they can rob us blind while we aren't watching.
