13. We need less political analysis and more political ACTION

There are plenty of pundits on TV and the internet that will tell you what they think is “the answer” to the pressing questions of the day.

If you can’t go to a demonstration, try other home based activities- call or write (emails are ignored) your representatives, daily if necessary. Sign up for a postcard campaign (sending postcards to voters near election time to encourage them to get to the polls. Do phone banking for the candidate of your choice.

Seeking out more and more bias-confirming analysis and punditry is of limited value IMO.
